Continuing to be amazed at all the things you guys have done and are doing. Thanks to all.

My brother sent me a draft of a book he's hoping to publish. It's a collection of poems he has written over the years based on his farm near Flemington, NJ. I didn't know he was so good at capturing feelings about things we walk by and take for granted.

My wife gave me two tickets to a Devils-Rangers game a couple weeks ago as a Christmas present. That resurrected my old (from college) love of hockey. Been hooked on the Devils games since. They've changed a lot since the strike. Seems mostly for the better. The All Star game last week was a terrific show of the talent in the league. I helped out as a student trainer during my college days and sometimes have to fill in at the hockey games. Hadn't seen that much blood since watching autopsies in my pre-med days (they cured that interest and I'm still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up). What a great game against the Flyers last night. Can't believe the Flyers are in last place, playing the way they did. But I'm glad the Devils won.

The guy from the marina down the road just came by and said he had finally cut out the centerboard from my sailboat which got wrecked in September when Eduardo passed by. Now I have to see if the guy who had wanted it in October still wants it. I hope so—I haven't thought of what to do with a centerboard that is too heavy for one guy to pick up.

I've got to work on my picture taking to see if I can add something worthwhile to the web, after seeking what
willetphoto has done.
