Sharks!

Anyone planning on coming to south Florida within the next few weeks should be aware that it is shark migration season here and the beaches close if they are around. Various types of sharks are migrating south, following the bait fish and feeding on them. They do come very close to the shoreline, sometimes as close as knee-deep water. Lifeguards here take them very seriously and do everything possible to keep people out of the water for their own safety. Right now they seem to be hanging around Singer Island in Palm Beach county, literally hundreds of them. It is quite a scary sight. Any beach can and will be closed, from north Palm Beach county all the way down through Miami Beach and the Florida Keys, depending where the sharks stop to feed. So please be safe, everyone, and obey the double red lifeguard signs posted and the lifeguards yelling for everyone to vacate the water. You don't want to wind up as Jaw's lunch. Also, it's the season for Portugese men o' war and jellyfish to add to your displeasure. But the weather is great and the pools are nice and warm. Welcome to Palm Beach, y'all.

South America?

O.K. Now my sister wants to come too. The more the merrier. Anyone else?

Next Trip

Well, I think we made up our minds. It's back to South America this Spring. Jerry has not yet mastered the Tango so we need a refresher course for him. Besides, we both have to practice our Spanish. More to come when plans are solidified.
