Summer Boathouse Favorites

   Hello everyone,    I hope your week  is going well.  We are enjoying beautiful sunny       days here with some cooler nights.       I have been asked  some questions about our little boathouse lately so I thought it was time to do a post on some of my favorite photos of it and give you an overview of it. Our Boathouse was built by my husband     and son about 6 years ago and since neither of them are carpenters ,I for one am pretty     impressed with how well they did. Over the years I think most who have seen it have fallen in love with it too. This is the view from across our pond.
