Drift Boats and Draft Dodgers

When I was living in a trailer up river at the Dundons, I got out of my car, measured a McKenzie Riverboat, and made a model of it that I later gave to my newfound daughter. I had rented space in Gino’s store in Blue River and was going to make models of this famous dory for a living. But, Gino’s family are the craziest folks you ever want to meet. The parents and kids were famous drunks. Gino tried AA, and failed. I got sucked into making planter boxes from timber Gino milled. We sold them on the old road. Gino’s wife got crazy drunk and busted out all the picture windows. I can you stories about Blue River Loggers you would not believe.
