Default Excerpt from Donna's web site

Small and Simple ...

That describes my brain.

The weather has finally there is SUN .. YES

"Oh, one more thing of interest. Earlier in the morning, before Donna
arrived, an Open 50 footer, racing around the world single-handed, was
towed in the harbor. Apperantly he had come through the same storm that
Donna came through. His boat is a mess, his sails are so tattered and
tangled around the rigging that he had to hire someone to go up the mast
and cut the sales (sic) away. Strangly enough, Donna's little Southern
Cross came out looking quite good, with everything intact but the self
stearing."

Once again, small and simple makes it where big, sophisticated, and
expensive comes to grief.
