HELLO FROM CARRIBEAN

Hey Guys, my son tells me the weather is continuing to SUK along the east coast.

But don't worry on my second week here in barbados with the misses and its sunny and warm with low humidity and just cool enough in the evening. Got an oceanfront room with a nice balcony.
We took a catamaran cruise and swam with sea turtles hand feed reef fish and been swimming everyday in the turqouise water.

Not going to do any fishing, why bother as I've eaten fish everyday.
Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Kingfish, flying fish, shrimp, carribean lobster, snapper, even marlin (but that dont taste too good).

So stay warm, I'm sure the snow will still be there when I get back.
But there is nothing better than a warm weather getaway in mid winter in NE..

Nice pics & glad to hear that some are able to get away and enjoy the warmer climate.Send more pics.....Maybe of some hotties on the beach

As for the snow up here........We should have enough for you when you get back,due to your driveway donation as a snow farm

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need

I suggest that all of our SB.com snow plowers plow all of the snow into Van's driveway for his return.. just to make up for all of the snow he missed!!!!

Holy Crap, just checked the weather back my way and were in for another foot ++ of that freakin stuff !!! My son is pessed. !!!!!

But be warned there is NO ROOM on either side of my little driveway or my yard for you to come dump your snow. My son told me hes been throwing it the bed of my truck from the last storm, so I figure it will be overflowing after this one and the pile will be 8' on the sidewalk !!!!

It gonna be a SHOCKER for us (esp. the Mrs) when we return next week.

Why again do we live in NE???? There is fishing everywhere....

I hear more snow on the way again this coming weekend?
Maybe it will delay my coming home and I will have to stay here longer. WHAT A BUMMER.

Toured the island on a 4x4 and took some shots of the wild side.
Even saw an SB member fishing off the cliffs. Looks like an arra rod with a VS. (NOT !!!!) But I guess they catch snapper, other reef fish and even hammerheads, that apparently make good eating

Well even after I return, there is only,,,what,,,8 more weeks of winter Then fishing again !!!!
