At 72 years, using this log, Bob builds his last boat by hand. And Velda pursues her passion, painting farm scenes on canvases and found objects, transforming them into whimsical folk art. Filmed on Denman Island over a period of two years, this gentle portrait captures the essence of island living, and introduces us to a captivating couple.
