Please don't call me Saturday. I'll be out sailing in sunny 75* and 10k winds. Hopefully you can get a flight out before the sheep come calling again
Have a safe trip home.

You know, I'm relatively new around here, and to sailing for that matter. I thought the guys over at SA were a little nuts, and you were the normal ones. Looks like I need to rethink this thing...

So you're the one to blame for this weather? It felt downright cold today outside. I had my sweatshirt and a facket on all day, and yesterday afternoon, I was in a T -shirt.

If you're not on a plane, give me a call tomorrow, otherwise, give the family my regards when you get home.

Actually I think it was the scottish who invented Sheep shanking. Just Ask Billy Connelly:

"If you going to shag a sheep, take it to the edge of a cliff so it pushes back better".

Current conditions in East Central Wyoming: 41F, winds SSE at 36 mph gusting to 60. A brisk autumn day. Hey Alex -- let's go sailing! I'll meet you at Alcova with the SJ21 and you can teach me Portugese Heavy Weather Tactics. That would rock!

I think Alex finally was able to leave Wyoming, it's been quiet around here.
