Hi,

A crushed JohnZ doesn't sound a bit appealing and besides, you know there
is always bound to be chocolate wherever Barb and I are. <G>

That's a new kind to me. Are they wild, or grown commercially? You're on for a
detour. We can buzz my brother-in-law at Santa Maria and maybe go over to the
oil patches to suck up some casing gas. Somebody said the gulls were acting
funny after flying through our con trail last year. Casing gas should burn
cleaner than Meade.

I don't know....they show some fine seamanship. Susan in San Diego mentioned
conjuring up Dennis Conner, and that sets the proper tone for challenging the
royals who will probably never let up about the Tea Party.

Although it hasn't been confirmed, I'm sure there must be a seaman among our
ancestors. I do love a regatta and just about any craft with sails. I'm looking
forward to exploring the harbor and all the seaside attractions.

Seeya soonly,

Violet C.I.P.
