How many of us stand and look in a full length mirror and truly take stock of what they see? Denial is part of human nature, it keeps us going in the face of bad odds. You have all heard the phrase, admiringly spoken "against all odds." Except now it's working against us.

True Newf, Dohboi created that topic of how Hope is working against us now. I would differentiate between irrational and rational hope.. Anyway, hope the warmer weather is making the sailing more agreeable to you. :)

It has. All the way down from Delaware we had poor wx. At one point I even resorted to wearing my cold weather flotation/work suit.

But the last week we have been in Ocracoke,NC, on the outer banks. Here the wx has been wonderful. Most pleasant.
