Bad weather for P'cola

We had a rough night outside Birmingham and I see it's rolling into Pensacola. It should be a wet day for you guys down there.

That is what we are hearing on the weather reports. We had a short power outage about 2 AM this morning. When I say short, I really mean short, like less that 5 minutes.

That bow echo just rolled through Ft. Walton and Panama City. Looks like the straight line winds missed Pensacola. Y'all ain't gonna escape the rain, though.

We had a heck of a lightning show on the key yesterday but the skies parted and left us with some small glassy longboardable surf.

Looks like more on the way. Good day to go out and pick up the Bud Light cans left behind from the tourists.

We went out swimming behind Eden on Friday and there was fireworks remnants all over the place. I remember doing fireworks there one year, and there were fools (like me) every 15 feet along the beach. You would light yours... run from it... and run into somebody else, or the fireworks THEY just lit... Like Jeff Foxworthy says "It was pandelerium!"

I more worried about the UFO that landed in Bob's backyard. He said they are loading up the plastic and neon palm trees to carry back to the planet Nookertan where they expect to propagate them.

Speaking about Bob, he says he is through with forums.

I have my doubts about that. If it is anything like him quitting cigarettes, he'll be posting soon.

Eric, I left a link with a picture of my schooner on PDF. I don't want to spam the forums, so I'll just leave it there.

And yes, I was a sailor.

If we can ever sell our boat, I'd love to get another Harpoon 5.2 meter. It was the perfect size (17'), had a little cuddy, easily trailered, and it sailed like a champ. With all boards up, it had a 4" draft. Here's a pic of our first one. We had a second one... one without the cuddy and I preferred the one with the cuddy.
