Nah, I'm going to Newfoundland. I like this stuff. Besides, if I
lived down there, when would I work on my boat?

It also shows the insidious effects of cold and discomfort which

creating mental tunnel vision and deteriorating performance well
before the onset of actual hypothermia.



See? Another great reason to move out of the 2-week boating season
in
Maine, no matter how quaint it is, to Charleston, which is equally
quaint, but where you can boat 365 days a year...(c; True
Chaostoniuns
don't prounounce Rs eitha, so you'll feel right at home. Just swap
Ayah
for Y'all. They're very nice and most have forgiven Yankees for the
"unpleasantness" of the 1860's....except General Sherman, of course.

Google Earth to the area around Charleston and see if you see any
uncluttered waterways to explore.... Geez, make sure the GPS is
working
so you can find your way out! Both Northeast and Southwest of here
it's
wilderness for over 50 miles!

Falling overboard is damned near like taking a bath at 81. The
bikinis
on the beach have bloomed and many are already in breeding
condition...

I know where there's good dockage for the beast....
