Closeup of the Flying Boat

I've shown you all kinds of views from my backyard. Well, today it's something very unique... a flying boat! Yes, it's a boat that has been converted into a plane. Here's a wide angle look to give it perspective: http://365project.org/kwind/365/2014-08-09

Here's a YouTube video of it taking off that I found on line: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P077q2rQkw

I shared this shot of it a couple of years ago: http://365project.org/kwind/365/2012-10-26

I have heard people say "If God had meant for us to fly he would have given us wings!", and I think that somehow applies to this boat!
