Morning Bill
What's with this white stuff?
I'm going to blame Dave for it as he posted up those Hallmark Christmas card photos yesterday.

Hey, at least you didn't have to shovel and throw down salt twice yesterday like I did Jim.

Well, I'm headed out this morning for a weeklong road trip with my boss. He's flying into Buffalo, NY this afternoon, he's then renting a car and we'll meet in London, ON this evening. On Tuesday, we have meetings in Chatham and Saint George, we'll wrap up our trip late Thursday afternoon in St. Eugene, ON. After our last meeting on Thursday evening, he's planning on driving to Syracuse, NY where his flight leaves early Friday morning.

I'm going to overnight in Ottawa on Thursday, I'll meet our daughter for lunch, who's attending university there and will drive home Friday afternoon.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Headed off to chub cay bahamas in a week.....this island was known as frasers hog island. Its 37 miles from Nassau and likely saw pirate activity in the 1700s. In 1836 I believe freed slaves put down the first permanent settlements. The feeling I get is that history has hidden secrets here. When you put the coil to the soil in the bahamas.....anything is possible!! Should be able to find some modern gold on the resort beach. Many home sites here have been raised by hurricanes since Andrew in the 90s, and I know of an old bottle dump on crab cay....just a short swim away. I was almost takin by a large tigershark when I was a youngster swimming to crab key once.....got to the shallow water right as the shark got close !!
