wer'e outta here baby!

Glenn and I will be outta here at 3:00 tomorrow morning, and should be in Marathon Key, Florida, by 11:30 tomorrow night. We packed the vehicle and boat during a genuine Nor'Easter today. The wind was whipping at about 35 knots, and the torrential rain changed to snow as the wind went from south to north east in about a half hour. The temperature dropped 18 degrees in an hour and a half. It was a bitch loading things and trying to keep them dry at the same time. Anyway, we are ready to go to Florida. We will undoubtedly lay around the first day, and rest up as we did last year. We stay at Knight's campground which has a laid back attitude. Just keep it somewhat cool, seems to be their motto. We are equipped for some night fishing this year. We have been told that's when the bigger Grouper, and Snappers come out. We have some chum and several live eels that we are taking with us also. We have ten fishing rods. Everything from light to heavy duty. Hopefully the weather will allow us to get to the Tarpon.
I can't wait to get to the seafood restaurant across the street and get into one of their lobster ruebens! They are $13 but there is enough for 2 meals.
