Rain!

We've had a very dry fall down here. It rained a ton when Hurricane Katrina went by, then it didn't rain at all until Hurricane Rita went by a month later. And it hadn't rained since, until today. Yay! I sure missed it. I wouldn't like living in a desert. Yay for rain!
Speaking of weather though, the Transat Jacques Vabre (double-handed transatlantic) and VOR (crewed round the world) fleets are getting the crap beaten out of them. Many boats headed back for repairs or out all together. Can't imagine what that's like...
Otherwise, tons of work as usual...
How's everyone else out there? Our phone is working again, so feel free to call...

Glad you are okay. I guess Orange the big tri is no more. You are right the JV is really hammering the multihulls/ Nothing much happening here, some snow in the hills. Starting to ride a trainer, in some lost hope that I can become young and fit. Did you hear about my proposed hip replacement. Am carving out the replacement with some teak I found in one of the hatches of the boat. We are hopefully having our anchor chain regalvinized, just a little tidbit for you to file for the future. Of course you will probably go with carbon fiber chain. Checked out both the trials and rallye vide. Would n't it be a hoot to drive a tricked out rallye car
Back to work for the ol man
