      That was kind of nasty. I once discovered the joys of teleconferences and cell phones, when I was looking out a window in Ann Arbor, at overcast skies, rain and 40 deg. weather. Someone called in on his cell phone and we found out he was on a sailboat, on the Chesapeake Bay, where it was clear, sunny and 80 deg.

        You’re welcome.

        And I cheated a bit- that’s summer shot. Yes, we have winter down here- temps have been in the high40’s at night. And when that storm hit the northeast it brought us straight-line winds in excess of 50MPH.

        Yesterday I went to see what washed up on the beach- thousands of Fighting Conchs, all alive. My arm was tired after throwing back more than a hundred,

        Also littering the beach a similar number of Nine Armed Star Fish. Plus pieces of coral, including red corals, other detritus.

        And nary an inch of snow.
