[Rhodes22-list] Welcome

[Rob Granger]

Oh well  :-(

The ICW idea sounds nice.   I've not yet done that... and I also dream of
doing the keys someday.  I have family in Louisiana so my plan is to leave
the truck and trailer at a cousin's house..maybe start in the Vermillion
Bay... but right now it is still a ways off... until then  I have sailed
the Chesapeake bay, Albemarle and Pamlico sounds a good deal.  AND LOVE
IT!!!  You could easily make an entire summer out of the Chesapeake bay,
and if you get wander lust you can ICW to the Albemarle/Pamlico sounds and
spend another summer there and hit the outer banks... and never get to
Florida...  at least not yet  :-)

Fair winds and if you ever hit the Albemarle or Pamlico let me know and
maybe we can raft up some time.

... the other Rob
