building the Ark yet?

Naw. I think I got the instructions confused. I got lost when I tried
to "go fer" wood, and while my inclination would be to saw it into
planks for some reason ark building requires that one "cube" it.

It has been raining, sometimes hard, for at least some portion of the
last 24 days.
The record is something like 33 days.

My ark will be diesel powered, of course, and fully provisioned for an
offshore voyage of 40 days and 40 nights. I think a watermaker will be
essential.
