Hey Wayne and Greg ...

I just checked the Southwest Florida Eagle cam. Say's it's cloudy and
37 degrees.

Hell, right now it's 35 degrees here and we are under a blizzard warning.

Better keep an eye on the weather down there :-)

Well, keep the snow there for at least another six or seven hours. My tee time is at 9:30.

Yeah, we've had lucked out with a mild winter up until now. Significant
snow forecast for today (blizzard warnings), and then more snow off and
on for the rest of the week. Next weekend we'll see temps dropping to
below zero overnight. Hate winter.

Some friends moved down to New Bern, NC. They absolutely love it. We may be heading south in a year
or two, and that's on the short list of places to look.

Right now it's 47 where we are, headed for 67. That's freezing by our
standards but the wind is down a lot from yesterday. I was supposed
to go out on a Grady White up in Sarasota Bay yesterday to watch my
oldest son race his sailboat but conditions were too severe and the
whole thing was cancelled. The bay was totally covered with whitecaps
and blowing spray. There was a 45 ft sailboat banging into the rocks
that had broken loose from somewhere. As my son would say, it was
blowing cats out of trees.

It's a great area for boating, lots of relatively protected water and
many fishing/cruising opportunities. There's quite a bit of sailboat
racing also if you're looking for a new activity. By my standards
it's too cold in the winter however.

That is up in North Ft Myers. I don't think it got that cold down here
nearer the water. It has been cold tho. I hope it warms up a bit for
Bill but he better bring a wet suit. Key West is reporting 67.7f water

All those whitecaps are know as 'sheep in the meadow' on our coastal areas.
North coast of California does have a lot of real sheep in meadows and
fields.
