Winterizing in Sflorida
 
Reading all the columns on winterizing I thought I would share my plan
for winterizing in SFL, Any additional suggestions would be helpful:

-Take in the lycra suite and put the 3 mil wetsuits aboard
-Store the Dolphin (Mahi) gear and put on the Wahoo and Sailfish gear
-Remove the SPF 40 and stock up on SPF 20
-Put Diesel additive in the fuel to allow for the slower speed limits
for the so called "Manatee" or "SeaCow" influx (I think it is very mean
to call the yankees these demeaning names)
-Store a couple windbreaker in case the winter gets really rough.
-Remove the Rum from the liquor cabinet and stock up on Red wine and Scotch.
-Check the generator to make sure it can handle the additional load of
Christmas lights.
-Double check our boat insurance so we are sure we are covered for the
onslaught of Canadian boats.

You've got a bit of a mean streak in you, don't you?
It's not nice to laugh at other's misfortune. Besides that, cold weather
builds character.And, I love the four seasons. Plus, New Hampshire summers
MAY be a bit short (14 days, on average), but the quality is excellent. And,
there's nothing like Christmas in New England. The little kids, with their
noses pressed to the frosty window pane, watching for the plumber who's
coming to fix the frozen water pipes.
Sigh......
Pass that rum over here if you're just going to put it away for your alleged
"winter".

I don't, at least anymore than I HAVE to. I've got some willed assets
there. The panhandle is okay, but SOUTH florida, that's a whole
different story. Truly sucks.

So. Fla is also happy that you are not there. They already got enough
dummies, that can not punch a card.

Typical. You follow ME around, then when you make a completely absurd
statement, and when asked for any inkling of proof, start the third
grade name calling
