Hi Folks!
 
We are back safely from our vacation on South Bass Island/Put-In-Bay. Some
pictures posted at:

alt.binaries.pictures.sports.ocean

Despite the fact that we had a golf cart stolen from our driveway by a
couple of 17 year old punks (I ended up catching them and turned them over
to the police) we had a great time.

I am on vacation for another week but this time just chilling around the
house and doing some boating. ;-)

Glad you had a good time. (sigh) Now you've given me another newsgroup
to which to subscribe!

The quote above is my idea of vacation.

Thanks Frank. There is quite a lot of history on the Island. Sometimes it
seems like one needs a vacation to recoup from a vacation. ;-)

BTW: If you ever want to buy a house on the Island, here is what $550k will
get you (not even lake front and only a 100X200 lot):

Hi Folks!
 
Welcome back, Jim. Wonderful that you had a good time, and glad you
could catch the punks too! Hope they'll be able to learn something
about their errors, but eh, probably not.

Stay near your boat...any more rain and you'll need it to get to the
supermarket.


We had a pretty bad storm pass through here on Thursday........it hit the
east end of Cleveland especially hard with up to 9 inches of rain coming
down in an hour:

After I was told by the cart rental place that I was responsible I drove
around the Island for a full hour looking for these guys. They had removed
the rental company stickers and the fold down windshield from the cart.
They are being charged in juvenile court by the police. I was able to flag
down a cop after I caught them (I made a police report earlier). I made a
request to the prosecutor for restitution for my time, gas use and SUV use
when trying to find them as well as loss of cart use. After all, they
screwed up a full morning of my vacation time.

This has been one of the wettest and most humid summer I can ever recall.

Hi Folks!
 
it's supposed to be in the high 90's for the rest of this coming week,
with very little relief in sight. My boat doesn't have a top, so I
think I'm going to pass going to the lake this week.

RATS!
