Hey Captain!

Thanks for the encouragement! The storm in Massachusetts took our power! Even the gym's power! On top of that, I'm buying a condo in another town and hope to close in move in a month or so! Not to worry, I'll find a gym with a boat! Not giving up that easy!

PS....will be looking forward to the Crash B's. did it a couple of years ago and was very proud that I finished and not last!
It's all Good!

Once the Captain thought to rebuke a
Smith who thought he was puffing his hookah.
Though not quite enamored,
Didn’t wish to get hammered.
So Cap said, “We can overlook, ah?”

Such a wise and wonderful Capn, Maybe he's related to Major Woots :D (and a pretty good poet also). If he starts after the Great White Whale I might be persuaded to make his harpoon :)

The Captain's limerick, I clearly surmise,
Caught the Damselfly quite by surprise.
Previously scaled one height,
Now she read a poem so bright,
Must decide: Take a peak - or cover her eyes!
