Been following your progress on the "Wayne Spot". Looks like you
are well away from any effects of "Andrea".
Getting to be a dicey area down there this time of year.

We altered our return route to keep us out of harms way. Right now
we're in the mid-Exumas (eastern Bahamas), getting some rain but the
wind is manageable. Storm is already going up the coast at this point
but some of the outer bands are still swirling around here.

I had originally planned to go up Old Bahamas Channel, off the Cuban
coast, directly to the Keys. Unfortunately that would have taken us
directly towards the storm and with no place to hide. Discretion
being the better part of valor, we opted for the more conventional
route.


It has been cloudy and raining here for over 2 weeks with a couple
days off last weekend and they are predicting the same next week.
We may get a decent Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning before it
starts again. Andrea was a non event here. It was raining before and
it is still raining.

We didn't really get a dry season this year.


-------------------


We are still under normal on rainfall. Probably will not get anymore for 4
or 5 months.

I love California. So much to see, so much to do, natural and manmade.
San Francisco and environs are great places to visit and live, in the
city itself and north and south of it, and I'm fond of San Diego, too.
Like every place, it has its downsides.
