As many of you know, I head South to ward off the cabin fever, and hunt with forum friends. (This year almost was put on hold , as my mom is in a nursing home with dementia. She seemed quite agitated lately, but her Dr. and nurses say it is all part of the progression of the disease. And they gave me the ok to go.) I'll be leaving the first week of Feb., and staying for at least 3 weeks...(maybe a little longer...) Hoping to meet up with Dewcon, Larry, Barb, gil, Neil, and a few whom will remain anonymous...... As usual, I will hunt the Carolina's, Georgia, and Florida. While in Florida, will be hitting Atlantic and Gulf waters. It's been a very busy year for me running my plumbing business, and am looking forward to some fun in the sun. Wish me luck, and hope to be posting some good finds.....Curt
