hope your new lady and you enjoy those sunsets on sanibel. i would appreciate an update on how sanibel and captiva recovered after the hurricane. i went to sanibel the first time in the 50's as a kid. long before the causeway. it was robinson crusoe for a kid from detroit. abundant shelling and sealife. for shopping there was bailey's general store and bailey's general store. we went every winter while i was at home. last time i was there we anchored off of tweenwaters for a couple of months in the mid 90's. i have a very fond place in my memories for sanibel and captiva. i hope they are mending well. toast a sunset for me amigo, with mother agave. |

Location: Miami, FL | Hello OFC Family,
Glenn and I met up earlier today, half way between for us both. I drove up from Miami and he came down.
He received the 1118 and I am in posession of a very nice 1117.
A void was filled for us both. He filled his need for a deep bowl 12 string and for me the 12 strings have begun to outnumber the 6 strings almost 2 to 1.
He seemed happy leaving and I am happy with the 1117. So all is well that ends well.

Let that 12 string ring!
