to Miss Mac. 
Here they are on Shaver Lake.
She also remembers that the color scheme was picked because of the car and the colors available for the engine. I love the color scheme.
This is my cousin, sister and I in 1981. I guess I can see where Blynn gets the posing from.
And here she is in 2010. We took her out of the barn a couple of weeks ago to clean her up and assess her situation. This brought back so many memories.
A new generation of passengers.
This first aid kit was completely intact. My Grandma was always prepared. 
Is anyone as excited about these old life preservers as I am?
And this?
This item is what my sister and I remember the most about the boat. My Grandma would make coffee on the boat and then give us girls a cup. Then she would ask us how many sugar cubes we wanted. I'm pretty sure I would say 21 or 36. Remember that I was 4 years old. I think this is why I like my coffee so sweet to this day.
And seriously this is the best find of them all. Is anyone else screaming like I was? No. Well, are you not seeing what I'm seeing. Look closer.
This is jadeite my friends. I still sense that you are not as excited as I am. This is now the only mug I will drink out of. As we were working on the boat, everytime I would turn around, this is how I would find my sister.
Now we just have to see if she is sea worthy. The boat not my sister.

Oh I am in love with Miss Mac! I love that she was full of treasures. The jackets. Clean them up and hang them up somewhere. The red box! and your new green mug. I love it all. Can't wait to see the chrome polished, seats cleaned and the her waxed. She is amazing. I hope to ride in her someday. mh

"and her waxed"
The mugs! The life jackets! I swear that "American Pickers" just picked an old first-aid kit like that out of someone's barn on a recent episode. What a goldmine!
Love dad's "cowboy" shirt...he was so into that, remember the fringe jacket! Grandpa looks so much like dad does now, except for the hair-do. In my defense, I was really tired that day! And the reason why was because I had been eating all day...that takes alot out of a person. Love the pictures and can't wait to take it out.
I can't believe the finds you pull out living on the farm. I love your life. I wish I was there to help restore this awesome boat. I hope you guys get it working!!
