I feel left out.

I feel like punching Islander in the neck!

I flippin hate winter. Fortunately I bought a light box a few years ago. Cheaper than a few therapy sessions or some meds. Strong recommendation.

Also, a little anxious/excited. Made a very low offer on a gorgeous house that's a foreclosure. Offering 78% of the asking price and the bank, besides us, hasn't had any offers so I have no competition... Will require some very creative (ahem) financing, but it's an investment for later, I'm hoping...

Here's a pic from the deck looking over the neighbor's roof and into the forest below.

As BHD said, it was just the boat. And it's all broken down for transport so it doesn't feel pretty enough to be shown off right now.

(was over in your neck of the woods yesterday- picture in the newspaper of the boats decorated)

It's right next to Anthony's. You can see it on the port webcam. It will be there until just after Christmas.

Just his boat. And his boat is a big snob.

Should be okay as long as there isn't a chain worthy snow along I-80/I-84 around Wyoming/Utah/Idaho stretch on Sunday/Monday. Supposed to snow a little, but be light/flurries.

Our bed is pretty marginal spacewise, you would probably want to try it out w/ the Hobbitt to see how you fit. I do know an easy mod for more space though....

Scott also has a really nice Carver 32. It only has one state room, so it has more space. I know the owners, it's nice too and you could get a deal.

Well, there's still the issue of slip space, which is pretty much non-existent over here, or anywhere close that would make it worthwhile. But I thought I'd killed that bug years ago. Evidently it was just lying dormant in my pointy little haid. hobbitt is going to kill me.

And if you have a boat, the only therapy you will need is validation of your nuttiness, but you'll feel good.

I find it highly irresponsible of you to make such a threat offer to someone in BHD's fragile mental state. You should be banned or investigated or probed... or something.

1987. Are you looking again? I know a good psychiatrist who could probably cure you... but a boat would be cheaper to just buy the boat.
