I'm not a big fan of those houses on the manmade canals. In fact, I'm
not a big fan of having waterfront property with a boat dock. Looking
out the den window and seeing a big boat or my neighbor's house across
the canal is not to my taste. I'd rather park the boat at a nearby
marina. That should be much easier these days in Florida because of
the financial collapse there.



I think most people who own homes on manmade canals do so *because* they
can dock their boat near the house. That's why they live there. If
people don't like looking at boats, they shouldn't buy a home in an area
designed for people with boats.

Harry is just trolling for Wayne. Not too subtly, I might add.

I know. I'd die for Wayne's place. And boat. But, that's me.

Nah. I don't give a schitt about Wayne, his house, or his boat. None of
them are to my taste. When and if we move south again, it'll be to a
place with real flora, real seasons, and along a natural river or creek.

Both my wife and I like Hilton Head and its environs, and the Golden
Isles. We also like the area where we lived, around St. Augustine, Florida.

Harry is in my KF on most computers so I'd guess fishing leaves a lot
to be desired. That said, the convenience and cost savings of having
your own boat dock is hard to over estimate.

Come on down; weather is great and the guest room is empty. Let me
know what flight to meet and how many people are coming. I picked up
a friend of ours flying in from Seattle last night and the airport was
packed with snow bird arrivals from all over.
