Might be amusing. When is it? That $%&#! web site is all in Flash, which takes years to load over a cellular link. @#$%@ idiots!

That would be a lot of travel time via boat, unless my friend Tom wants to go. Wouldn't take long to get there and then back @ 80.

Might be fun. Wonder if he has an anchor?

I would have loved to go... but I have business trip the week... Thanks for the invite...

I'm thinking about going this year, I've never gone before, but always wanted to. Is there a certain place we should look to drop the hook? In the bay or offshore?
