A new way to back in

Carol McCutcheon, pictured, had difficulty backing her fishing boat directly into the garage. So, realizing she had no trouble backing it up to the boat ramp and into the water, she decided to paint a Knox Lake dock scene on the wall of the garage.

It does make it easier to aim and the boat goes straight into its spot.” (George Breithaupt)
