Toting the Boat

 
Nathaniel and I realized on Saturday that with the pickup truck gone, I'm going to have to get some sort of trailer if he and I are going to take his johnboat places to fish together. We had hoped we could tote it atop the Expedition or at least get it on top of the family van (which is shorter). Turns out the boat is just a little too heavy for Nathaniel and me to control sufficiently and to get it atop either vehicle without breaking anything (including ourselves). Of course, lacking an open truck bed for mulch and other stuff like that, a trailer would be a mighty good thing to own anyway!
 
We'll have to figure out something. There are several little lakes around here that Nathaniel and I would really enjoy exploring together, and his johnboat would be perfect for the job if we could only get it there!
