Not sure exactly, but it should be about 14" long and 6" wide, but the height might be 12"... LOL

I am planning on building Old Ironsides so the mast will attached and I want enough room so it doesn't get crushed

That is sharp! I can see where it would be a problem to transport.

Are you still doing the cake contest?

Yeah we are.. I would just whip up something simple otherwise... LOL

I have been making cannons out of tootsie rolls and have them in the freezer..

I also made red white and blue flag bunting (Half circle) out of frosting

The color will add a lot. I'm sure that you have the winner.

I might just use chocolate frosting so it won't be as black as that, but I am undecided if i will add food coloring to darken it

Depends on time after I start assembly

It should be better than anything she can come up with..

In fact I was texting her today throwing a scare into her... }>

I told her I may have to rent a refrigerator truck to transport it... :-missingt

Nothing like a little tactical warfare... LOL

Don't scare her into out doing you, She'll never let you live it down.LOL

Yeah no chance of that... She doesn't have the skills I have... LOL

She has gotten better since I keep stepping up the game...LOL

She's probably having as much fun as you are.

Yeah she does.. She always thinks she has a winner until she sees my cake... LOL

One of these years she'll out do you. }>

Then I can quit cause I did my job elevating her skills... }>

Is the G2G at your brothers again this year?

Yeah as always.. He has a pool and it will get a lot of use this time I am sure

Those not using the pool will be inside escaping the heat. LOL

Yeah that would be me... }>
