I think I am in tomorrow...let's see...hmmm...I left on Thursday at 1:20 pm from Seoul and arrived in Chicago at 1:00 pm....does this mean I'm not here yet.

We'll have to talk to Clappy and he can give us one of his "time, space and motion" gigs <g>

mi padre in town..excited to get back on the water...boat tied to dock for 7 months..lonely...ready to sail.,..steady breeze...deck scrubbed...ready to go

keel gone...apparent victim of last winter's storm when the boat got loose and landed on the rocks 500 yards away. The tiller was broken and he repaired that this week...

padre says it'll cost more to fix than the boat is worth

headed back to the trailer soon to die in the graveyard

:(

Imagine hundreds of sailors crusing around telling stories AND the Mt. Gay Rum company buys all the drinks ;-)
