Neat!

So John, when can we expect to see a wooden Proton floating (or on plane at speed) down the Chattahoochee?

That's very cool! Love the other stuff from the pictures, especially the Topolino and Beetle.

Wow, Dutch, that's a great picnickin place! I could enjoy a house like that on the water front and, then if I could afford the house, I could probably afford the wooden car to race on the water!

I was in Venice last week. Didn't see those woodies, but would love to. Very sweet... I still wish someone would do a California VX surfer woodie wagon!

As I see the unique and unmatched beauty of Venice, and the above great Netherlands pic,... I think of those memorable words of both WC Fields AND Al Gore:

"Step out of the gutter, my dear,.. and make way for the BIG WATER!
