Wow- what a winter- we may only reach low 50's by Monday...pretty cold for us. To cold for boating- If it sat at a dock I'd be out- we have the gen and heat but launching....I will some but brrrr....

    It's frigid here in Key West.  Down to 67 this morning.  I almost had to put on a shirt.  :D

    Our season is pretty short, best case is late April until Late August.  Last year they had to drain the reservoir because the deepest boat ramp was being replaced, so draining started in mid-July...OUCH.  

    Anyway, this gets me through the winters here.

    -18 degrees Celsius next week. Sure puts a damper on the winter upgrades.

    You're in key west?! I'm sitting here in Key Largo with pants and a long sleeve shirt on. Can't believe it.

    Yes, still in Key West.  It has been chilly and windy ... not like the panhandle, but the locals are all wearing puffy jackets!

    LaRea picture i posted was taken at Pictured Rocks. When you posted your pictures from the water was thinking everytime i am there it doesn't look like yours. Been there at least 10 times on a snowmobile. Never seen from the water. Maybe someday.

    Our cruise got back to New Orleans this morning to still see snow on the ground.  They had gotten 9 inches of snow a few days ago.  The most in over 150 years.  I miss the 80 degree weather and especially the turquoise water!
