Original pen & ink drawings by James A. Cole. Andrew and Thea Foss came to America in the late 1800's with the conviction that success in any endeavor was dependent upon pride, perseverence and above all hard work. Using these basic ideals they were able to establish and maintain a rowboat drental business.
