    Nope, not a new cocktail.

    Loren, while I appreciate your recent South Florida weather report, it lacked a Christmas feel. Our water has long gone hard, and the white continues with -19° wind chill factors. We cannot even remember what Ra looks like.:eek:

    Merry Christmas to all!

    LOL... this is how we celebrated the first day of winter last week end: First, we went on a friend's 58 Hatt to watch the boat parade and after that I hovered behind the bandstand at bayside so that they could all dance, almost as if they were on stage...

    Next day, we went on my 53 and anchored out... perfect weather! not too hot, not too cold, and water warm enough to swim! Perfect!

    Remember to shovel your roof. Don't know how they will keep this one from going under...

    Capt Evan, how does your christmas lights on the outside stay up to that freezing weather without malfunctioning?

    Electricity is fine, remember it is sitting in snowflakes, not water.

    Carl, was that DC blizzard just before the bank bailouts? Would be a bit better with some blow around the nose, like our scar-faced friend in his final moments.
