This #windowFriday take a moment to sit with me in this wonderful bookshop. Get comfortable in a deep chair, inhale the heady smell of incense and browse through something that looks intriguing.... while a duck paddles by, above your head

I was looking at the invoice for my mooring fees.

It's a price per foot per day.

Sometimes it makes sense that boats pay by the foot, like for blacking (painting) the hull. Or for insurance, … maybe.

But in other cases it doesn't make sense to me.

I'm not entirely sure that licensing a boat should be priced by the foot.

That thing where something sets off a duck alarm and it's right outside the nap cabin.

When I designed the boat, I painstakingly mocked up the outside and the inside, using Photoshop. (Yes, that's nerdy.)

As the boat evolved, I updated the interiors and exteriors in the design file to reflect every as-built and as-furnished detail.

Now, I've printed the updated image, and plastic-laminated it to withstand touching it as people point out details. Framed, it'll hang on a bulkhead (wall), in the boat.
