Tough decision. The weather is really getting spectacular down here.

Yep, it sure is. We went out Wednesday night for a quick spin on the
GB but ended up having dinner at Salty Sams in Ft Myers Beach. Didn't
get home until after midnight but it was great.

What to do ... what to do...

We're staying put for another 5 weeks or so. After that, El Norte,
ready or not. Some of the boat projects are coming together, some
moving slowly, but I've made up my mind to leave as long as all major
systems are go. With any luck we'll be on Long Island Sound by
mid-June which is when the weather usually starts to get consistently
decent.


Our experience over the last 3 years is that June is the best time to arrive
back north, weather-wise. This year however, due to some family events and a
stupid horse show that Mrs. E just
*has* to attend, we will make the trip a little early. It's been a short
winter it seems. We had our new daughter-in-law staying with us while our
sons' ship was deployed in the Persian Gulf. It is due back later this
month after leaving Norfolk last October. The daughter-in-law is one happy
camper, as is our son.

Anyhoo, maybe we will meet up sometime this summer. I'll be prowling around
the Cape, the Vineyard, Cuttyhunk areas, or sitting at the slip at Kingman.
I am sure I'll be busy helping Mrs. E get familiar with her GB. This is
going to be an interesting summer, for sure.

Take care,
