Greetings, I'm Ernie Nichols from Keene, NH. M15 629 I've been monitoring this list for some time and just want to thank all of you for such helpful, entertaining and encouraging submissions. I appreciate the positive attitudes! I know that some of you live in places where the expression "Think Spring!" doesn't have much meaning. To you, I say "Wow, sailing in the winter. That must be wonderful!" For the rest of you who are still iced in, I say "THINK SPRING!" You understand. Our sailing will be all the sweeter because it is such a rarity. Ernie
