You use of terms is so funny...the water trough...makes it sound like little piggies are going to drink...tho if Lulu is such a noisy drinker as Helga was, and you have told us she was a noisy drinker, then I guess 'water trough' is an appropiate term....They need their water in your hot weather

I have no idea what kind of motorboat my son bought..we are just going to wait, until we can go and see it, and hopefully get a ride...tho motorboats are not really appealing to me...I prefer bigger boats, like ferryboats...the hubby likes speedboats and motorboats...

I have a silly fear of water...I get nervous in small boats, when we drive up and down the Oregon and California coastline, I am always afraid of Tidal Waves, and really fearful of 'sneaker' waves along the coastline...

I also dream a lot about tidal waves, and even scarey dreams, where I am in small motorboats, but surrounded by big waves...

Yet, I am not afraid to be on big Ferryboats, not afraid to swim in small lakes, not afraid of water in general...I just have my little quirks...

So, I doubt very much, that I will be going for a ride in the sons motorboat...

a ferryboat is certainly not a chris craft
altho I have had scary dreams of tidal waves coming to get me
my brother is into kayacking now like your son
when I was kid I turned up my nose at canoe my dad bought, I wanted fast speed boat
but now the idea of paddling canoe on lake appeals to me
(too bad there are no lakes on the desert)
Love, Palo
