Wrong group. But it proves the adage about 'minds that think alike'!

Great minds!

Now see what you started Bill? ;-) Everyone has an
opinion...................no one is going to change the opinion of
others.........as with politics and religion..........the beat goes
on................................

Of more importance to me at this moment..........I will be washing the
windows on the house tomorrow, replacing some exterior lighting wiring and
fixtures, getting the summer stuff out of the shed, getting the lawn
equipment started and putting the snow blower to bed.

Friday I haul my boat to the marina and start working on her.

It was a long winter (a tie in to the original topic).

Carry on folks.

We have so much rain, can not go boating in the rivers. Closed to boat
traffic. Can not finish the house painting. Raining. 28 of the last 29
days. Ma Nature must think we are Oregon. They require 10 dry days before
finishing the replaster of the pool. Maybe June?

Sorry to read that Bill.

I spent a lot of time in the SF/Oakland area and was able to see many of the
waterfront attractions in SF and Sausalito areas. How lucky you are to live
in such a nice area of the country, although you certainly pay the price
with housing and the general cost of living there.

I grew up here, so got used to the prices at a young age. Have also lived
in Dayton, OH and Biloxi, MS for employment and will pay the prices. But
since I bought my home in 1979, I owe very little.
