Look at the loss we'd suffer...no one to laugh at - seriously!

There was a time in the not too distant past when we'd come here to
exchange information and maybe laugh at stories and jokes in a good
natured sort of way. I much prefer that to laughing at someone.

Laughing at someone is grade school although I'd certainly concede
that Harry is an inviting target. He seems to like it however since
it gives him an excuse to lash out which is where his real enjoyment
seems to lie. Sick stuff.

Ah yes, the good ol' days. I think anyone who spends his days name-calling and
attempting to incite rancor deserves all the laughter directed his way.

This morning, when I awoke at 3 am and couldn't get back to sleep, one of the many
thoughts that drifted through was about what trips you may take this summer. I know
you've hit the Bahamas pretty hard, and I was wondering if you'd ever cruised over to
New Orleans, staying fairly close to the shore and putting in at any interesting
places along the way. Seems like it would be worth it just to get some good Louisiana
red beans and rice.

That cruise is definitely on my bucket list. People who have done
that run say the Florida panhandle area is some of the best cruising
anywhere. One of the challenges is what is known as the "Big Bend"
area of Florida, which because of shallow water, forces you to run
offshore from Clearwater up towards Panama City. Nothing we haven't
done before but you need to wait for the right weather window and then
run all night. Once you get to Panama City you can run inside on the
the Gulf Coast ICW all the way to New Orleans if you choose.

Right now however I'm salivating at the very real possibility of
cruising to Cuba. The regulatory and insurance issues are rapidly
improving and it looks like there is a very real chance of being able
to go sometime in the near future.

We don't have anything like that in the works, but right now we're going to Pohick
Bay camping for the weekend. Time to 'de-winterize'.

The weather has been great here for the last week or two. Yesterday I
turned the pool heater back on for the season.

I am over 80 with the solars and I only have 4 panels.

I'm jealous... Up here, we're still at least 2 month out from even
thinking about prepping the pool!

You could probably charge admission for that cruise. I'm sure most real boaters would jump at a chance to take that voyage.

Canadians already can.
It might be an exciting trip in an 18' open boat but lots of Cubans
have done it in less.
