Al right after a day of shopping for crap..... I don;t know how you people that buy food in stores do it.... What a torture.....

Anyway we are leaving tomorrow morning around 6 AM from the Fort Lauderdale inlet and heading north with the new rig

So to track us when I think of turning this spot thing on just click here:
