Mark:
Appreciate your comments.
I live within 150 feet of Lake Ontario. It is the second love of my life, right behind family. Agree with your comments.

I still compete (rather ineffectively now) on the boat that has been my mistress for 32 years, the Tornado catamaran. It's an Olympic class boat and the fastest of the Olympic classes. It's still as much fun today as day one. Competing with one's son just adds to the joy. The total lack of conditioning now means that when it blows, the younger, more dedicated guys, just kick my sorry butt, which is the way it should be. We manage to keep them honest through guile when the paint isn't being blown off the hulls. (g)

Fell in love with the lake as a kid and vowed I'd try to live on water as much as possible. Have managed it so far. Must have something to do with the webs between my toes. (g)

Best, Earlie
