In the News

Under construction.
Busy days at the Tolleys.
First, our pirate ship in the newspaper.
Then, on the news.
They say everyone has their fifteen minutes of fame.
This is ours . . .
Come sail with us . . .

    I've never had the chance to see it up close and personal but it looks like a lot of fun, even for BIG kids. Good news coverage too, I might add. Congratulations!

    Do you by any chance have grandchildren named Wendy, John and Michael? Oh wait - their last name was Darling... I bet they would not have flown off with Peter though, if they had already had this ship to play in!

      A good thought, Susan! Build a ship to keep your kids at home. Seems to be working . . .
