Dead Calm?
Not quite paradise, but the weather is getting nicer here.
A bit windy and cold today, but they are talking highs in the 50's - 60's by the end of next week.

Mike-
I flew into FWB yeaterday to take a ce class in Destin. It took 1 1/2
hours [between 11:00am to 1:30pm] to get from VPS to the Embassy
Suites. It took 1hr 40 minutes [4:30pm to 6:10pm] to get back to VPS.
When I walked into the airport they announced the flight to DFW was
boarding. I literally walked straight onto the plane and it took off
within a few minutes. The traffic on 98 is apparently all day now
judging from what a couple of locals told me at class.
I passed Leeside Park both ways with no sails or masts in sight on the
water. It seemed strange after the last three Corsair Nationals to see an
absolute empty horizon.
I guess you have to live there to really appreciate that traffic...

Sailing in Paradise
Hey Mike,
I thought Brian would be out sailing his new 20ft all carbon German boat that is faster than the Tornado. What's up??

Almost Have Open Water
Well it is April 5th and there is still ICE, but it is getting close. I would guess the easter Bunny will need to get his boat out and put away the skates!

Know what you mean......
Hey Matt,
Here's a pic of us two weeks ago. There wasn't any ice but the water was cool -- maybe around 69-70F, but somehow we'll manage until it warms up. Should have Adrenalin out next week end.
