And in Puget Sound they won't be "up" until global warming is a lot more
advanced than it is now. I just bought my wife her first drysuit (from
craigslist). But I would like daytime air temps to be closer to 60 than to
40.

And I just arranged for a slip for the "muthah-ship" at Oak Harbor Marina;
only 20 miles from Deception Pass where there is a marine state park called
"Cornet Bay" complete with docks and moorings. Twenty more miles and I'm in
the middle of the San Juan Islands.

And, as of this month, I'm officially on Social Security. :D
