Hi John, Ya know, Thats a really good, idea. I've never done anything like that but with my wife passing away last August and me being retired early because of a Disability I have the time, thats for sure and I'm always looking for new ways to keep my mind occupied so I don't sit in my room crying all day over the death of my soul mate, I will start a journal today and download all the pictures that I have up to the present time, once it's all organized I'll contact you again( about a week ) and you can tell me what you need for the artical so I know what to look for and get done for you as it's happening, Thanks for reaching out, Best Regards Ed Grabow, ( the new name on the boat is going to be The " Carol Lillian ")

GOOD LOOKING DOG

Congratulations on your nomination.  Would love to see more pictures of the Connie. I grew up on a 1963 30' Connie.  I bought my 31' Commander because of the similarity.

Thanks for the suggestion John. 

Which Finger Lake did your Connie come from?
