Off to Florida
Leaving tomorrow to go to Florida. I won't be back till the 21st. Heading down to Orlando to Sea World, then Tampa to Busch Gardens then to Marco Island. Should be nice to get away for a while.

Have a fun/safe trip. I am on my way as well. If you look east, no, further, roughly 12 miles offshore. Yep, thats me. Running a new 52' to Ft. Lauderdale.
Actually left Cape May on Wed morn, ran to Va beach, on to Oriental NC, and then Myrtle Beach. We pulled out of MB @ 0730 this a.m., heading for Hilton Head tonite.
Its been an adventure that started a long time ago- now its a rush to get this thing to the Lauderdale Boat Show.
Cheers!

Hope you made it quicker than me!
Just arrived in Lauderdale.
A follow-up by the numbers for anyone that might care.
2130 gals fuel,
1200 nautical miles,
8 nights not sleeping
7 days running
5 quarts of oil
4 boxes Pop Tarts
2 cases Peach Snapple (Beer is for tonite)
My 3 Swedish Girls are all running strong in the E.R. Never a hiccup. A little episode back in VA beach, but they were just testing me. Not their fault really.
With my luck-my ONE way ticket on Spirit tomorrow will go really, really bad.
Cheers!!

Left around 10:30 AM Saturday morning and got here late Sunday. Been a fun trip so far. Talked to a guy and got a pic of his Isuzu Trooper with 49" IROKS

You'll see Mercedes on 44 Ground Hawgs if you go to Fort Myers 
All sorts of different kind of station wagons on swampers too. Kinda makes me miss the swamp...why cant the Army have a base in Fl?

I went to Chucks Trucks when I left the hotel in Orlando. Didn't really talk to anybody, had a hard time finding the building as it was in the back of a bigger building with no sign. I did take a picture of 2 Toyotas, an F350, and a S10 all on Rockwells. Very nice looking trucks.
