Now go out in your back yard, sit in a little red wagon, and kedge yourself about. ;)}

Put together a folder with all the stuff you need to get at the next boat show for a discount.  I'm going to go to the Chicago show in January:
Torqeedo 1003
Boomkicker
things for lazy jacks
etc

Already bought everything I can imagine...and kedging up to the store didn't help. But, I did learn something...Manson Supreme anchors do not hold well on concrete..

Hello Craig,

I don't understand the email problem. I did go back and check all of my spam software settings and reset everything to default position. Then I reentered your address in the 'friendly fire' file. That should do it...at least I selfishly hope so...I need to ask about four hundred more questions over the next couple of months.

You could make handmade gifts for all your CPYOA friends here. That should help with all your free time!
How about chart studying? Or learning celestial navigation? HenryC here has produced some great material for learning and you have the time. Why not? There are a million things to do.

Chart studying... Pretty much have the Florida coast I sail figured out. Celestial navigation...forty years a student. And I ain't the least bit inclined toward crafty pursuits. I can make bent nails.

Nothing helps...but I'm going speckled perch fishing tonight - crappies to you yankees - sip a bit of good French brandy and dark coffee with a couple of my Polk County redneck cousins. Flying to the Keys tomorrow afternoon for a couple of days to check my buddy's stone crab traps.. Jesus...love 'em. I may get a gallon of claws out of the deal.

Then...my sixteen year old granddaughter and her "best bud" are arriving from Savannah Friday and staying until the 8th of January. That'll get 'er done...should take my mind off everything other than filicide. The remainder of January I'll just sit and wonder what the heck just happened...then it's delivery day...after which a week shakedown in the Kissimmee chain (my backyard) and off to the Keys. We're ready..
