In the "I've got those Cat 5 blues again" department...


So, yeah, Maria came to visit...

"So It Goes" took some scrapes, the outboard was torn in half by a Bendytoy which, apparently, wanted to sodomize our transom, and I've come to realize that I'd really rather avoid ever having to mess with ground tackle again on the foredeck in winds exceeding 150 MPH. All in all, an interesting night.

We're now in the third week of "THE RECOVERY" and we still have not had the phone work, the Governor's daily news briefing says there may be electricity by Christmas, and most of the roofs on the island are no longer keeping the rain out.

Being that internet access is sporadic at best (we've only managed to connect a couple of times for a few minutes) so I don't expect that Boat Bits will be a daily thing for a while...

That said, I really want to thank everyone who wrote with good wishes, concern for our safety, and positive reinforcement in the guise of how folks miss Boat Bits when it's not there... To say it means a lot is a Category 5 understatement. Thank you.

More ASAP.
So it goes...
