I like that. And it should probably be an observance every year, I think.

Glad to hear you all had fun!

I had fun too, in Paradise*.

Did you get clear before Fay wandered thru?

It's interesting to note that the Florida panhandle is part of the South. Central Florida and points further south are not, culturally speaking, part of the South.

When people tell me they're going to Florida I usually ask 'em if they're going to the part that's in the Caribbean or the part that's in Alabama.

My Realms novel, Sandstorm, is now available for ordering.

Yes I did! Luckily, most of the week the weather was fine and the water was (mostly) calm.

Definitely.

LOL, I'd go to Alabama if I had the chance. And I'm already dying to go back and explore more of Florida.

True, but there's beautiful nature in every state.

Except Jersey. That's state's just UGLY. (j/k)

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

Good.

I know for a fact that there are great spots of wilderness here in NJ. For example, Cape May attracts birdwatchers from all over the world.

Yes, because when certain sea creatures die, I get to collect their shells.
