I hope this one isn't as bad as Sandy. That was a nightmare.

I wondered if the cruise was still on...glad to hear you're safely on your way! Have fun, and enjoy the free drinks!

Ray, if the old sea-sickness hits, here is an instant, if temporary cure that supposedly works for almost everyone. Put on your suit and jump in the pool. Seriously.

Not a big deal guys. My haul out guy said he has no more than the usual amount of work for this time of year. Most people are staying in. He had an opening yesterday and today if I wanted to come out. And this morning's forecast shows it going further to the east. Next up, Maria.
