Us too, Todd, we're just south of Sarasota in Nokomis, although we're leaving here for Ft. Lauderdale Wednesday the 29th, to fly from there to Syracuse (shudder) for a family New Year's wedding. We'll fly back to FLL on Sunday the 2nd, giving us a day's grace before Fiesta.

Two weeks ago Syracuse had 96 hours of snow straight. And the past 36 hours have shown some pretty rough weather all over the nor’east. Just north of Syracuse, on the Tug Hill plateau directly in the lea of Lake Ontario they got 24 feet of snow in 12 hours once! A winter horror!

We look forward to seeing you again at FIESTA and on FUN. It’s been a long time since the Chilean fiords cruise – 6 or 7 years? Welcome to the other Left Coast!
