Hey Ol Thom,

We are getting a beam wind that is blowing like crazy right now,
steady 20 gusting to the mid 30's + My chair here at my desk has been
acting like a porch rocker in Mississippi all morning.



Nothing wrong with that! My porch rockers in Mississippi, have blown
off the porch this morning.

We have been

stagger around the boat like drunks, getting steady 5-6 degree rocks to
port and 2-3 degrees back to starboard as the gusting slacks and roars.
Our first taste of winter, it's sunny and in the seventy's but the temp
is suppose to drop fast, and I think we will be sitting on the bottom
tonight. Low Humidity.

Watch out for that 6" tunsami ;0)

Joe



Were you in one at the time?



Not hardly, but I did see one of those ferrel cats that hang out on my
porch go sailing past the window after the rocker blew over.

Supposed to be in the Carolina's late tommorrow. You'll see.
