Thanks for joining me today, folks.

We've got a fun episode planned as usual.

Featured interview today is with Nathan Nelson and Jenny Wilson, who just graduated from the Northwest School of Wooden Boat Building about a week and a half ago.

And they tell their story about how they got interested in wooden boats and going to the school.

Talk about the Eden Saw Boat Building Challenge that they won with a couple other people from the Northwest School at the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival a couple weeks ago.

And then they talk about their upcoming trip to Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania in Australia for the biennial ceremony.
