back in La Cruz having spent a month in Paradise Village. We are going to stay here for a few days and then head down the Bara. I went to a doctor here in PV and he said I had a torn meniscus in my knee and that I needed surgery. He gave me a cortisone shot to get me by until I can get home so I guess it was a good call not to continue south. We are going to try to hang in for the season and get it fixed next summer in San Diego. We'll be back for a week in Feb. and would like to see you guys. Are you going to be around? How has the boat sale been doing? E-mail me if you get a chance as I don't get on here much anymore. I'll answer you as soon as I get the chance. Internet is a pain around here at anchor. Paradise had it but it wouldn't work from the slip so I'm reduced to walking into town with a bad knee to get on line. Guess what? I don't do it very often. . Say Hi to the Admiral for us and Happy New Year.
