Thanks.
A couple of months isn't really long enough to soak it all in. (Soaking
being an appropriate verb for spending time up here, of course). One of
the freedoms that come with my job is the total absence of a fixed
schedule. If I want to write from 10 AM to 2 PM, or 10 PM to 2 AM it
doesn't make any difference either way.

I've got a photo that illustrates that last paragraph. Perhaps I'll put
it on the photo site and come back and establish a link.

Well, when I come up for the ride on your boat, for how many months should
I plan to be out???

Maybe Chuck could set up a tour for the members of this newsgroup. Half
a dozen or more of us could fly out and 'charter' Chuck's boat and
services for the period. Of course he would give us a reasonable rate
and write it off as a working /business trip.

Does Chuck's insurance cover charters?

That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Wouldn't be an actual charter. Just Chuck inviting a few 'close
friends' for an outing ;-)

Chuck probably wouldn't like political brawls on his boat either. I can't
think of anything that could be much more enjoyable than cruising around
Puget Sound for a month.

I'm sure you could behave yourself for at least a week or two. If not,
we could always send you home early.
