Hi Dermot!

"The Circle of Life" it seems!

Did you get out on your cruising cat much last summer? How's the boys at Blesso? I fly right over it once in a while, on the way to Dubai. Sometimes it's even clear enough to make out the lake.

We had to divert into Athens last week for a medical emergency. If the guy had only had his stroke a few hours earlier I would have gone into Dublin and paid you a visit!

I hope all is well with you and yours. Our season is just starting down here, I was out sailing the Prindle 18 with my dog just a couple days ago, but then it got cold the past two days. It's supposed to warm back up by Saturday.

Take care and I hope the weather is good to you this winter, 50% of the USA is under snow right now! Luckily I'm in the other 50%.
