Sorry to hear that, Ray. Sucks to be in Florida this time of year and not be able to play golf. Still, enjoy Naples. And watch out for Gators when you get back on the bike.

Yes Mt Snow is about 30 minutes south of me. Did he like it there, did he say if it was crowded?

He said it was the best skiing week he and his kids had ever had. Did not mention the crowds.

This morning brings us an Artic High air mass sitting smack dab on top of us giving crystal clear sunny skies and brisk temperatures of 9°F
Which is on the brisk side.
I did notice Titan's trip out to the bushes was rather efficient this morning.
No sniffing around for 5 minutes, out, did what he had to, and right back in.

Thanks Mike. Seeing a hand specialist next week. I did go to a car show yesterday on 5th Ave. Most of the cars were exotics. Tons of newer and vintage Ferraris, Lambos, and many more exotics. We call Naples La La land.

Any pics? Good luck with your finger, I damaged my ring finger as a teenager climbing down from a basketball rim my body fell but my finger stayed in the net for a few seconds still isn't right.

I broke a finger when I rolled a Spitfire in college. They didn't set it properly and its always been crooked ever since.

Nope. And believe it or not I had two passengers (one skinny friend in the small space behind the seats). We didn't make it to Last Call at the Lake Bar that night. Thank God it was a slow roll and I was the only one who ended up in the hospital. It happened because someone had gone off the road on a curve earlier and there was loose stones all over the road.

You were all VERY lucky. I would believe you had 2 other passengers as I did that a few times with my Dad's MG midget.
