Two old friends, Bob and Gail, from our old marina at Pickwick Dam sent us these pictures. The photos have nothing to do with the Abacos but being like minded folks we thought you all would find them interesting as many of you can relate.

Four live oak trees in the median of U.S. Highway 90 Biloxi that died as a result of hurricane Katrina received new life at the hands of a skilled chain saw artist.




Art from catastrophe

Bob and Gail retired a few years ago, left Pickwick, relocated to Biloxi, and moved onboard their sailboat “Pickin Daisey’s“. They and their boat survived Katrina but I think they had to have Pickin Daisey’s plucked out of the woods. More pics here.

Thanks for the email guys. Hope we can get together soon.

Speaking of wind… It’s back and blowin today.

According to Barometer Bob:

WEATHER AROUND MARSH HARBOUR***/^/*
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT^…SWIMMERS ARE CAUTIONED OF DANGEROUS HIGH SEAS
MON Briefly starting out with NE winds 20-25K this morning, backing to NW winds late increasing to 20-30K with occasional gust to GALE FORCE, seas 12-18ft in NE swells (note: C. Parker calling for up to 20-30ft tonight–no kidding–should be a good show from shore) chance of showers and t-storms, high temp 80, low 70
TUES SW winds diminishing to 15-20K, seas 8-15-20ft primarily in NW swells over the open ocean, scattered t-storms, high temp 80, low 71

All that red you see on the east coast is bad stuff

We are tied up tight here at Sea Spray so….

Good day to read-nap, watch a movie-nap, nap-have a cold Kalik….then another Kalik.

Hope it gets back to normal tomorrow–We’re not bettin on it.

Happy days
