Previous"So happy to hear you got a good rest today and Sparky is plugging away. Bill the smart-aleck wants to know if they're recalculating your rating with the jury-rig? You never know what can happen out there (well maybe now you know some of the things that can happen out there) and as we look forward to the Haha each day it approaches we're so glad you will be along.....not only are you fun and the perfect guy for our favorite girl, but your patience and drive are amazing! You made Lectronic Lat again today and have more people cheering you on than you'll ever know. You're famous in Chico and usually you have to be arrested on St. Patrick's Day or pose for Playboy to reach that status! Bill says there's nothing wrong with having more time to fish - use the Rapala - it's better for slow speeds and you're going to need a good fish story to round out your logs! Enough of the jokes! We love you and wish you blue skies and smooth seas and a HUGE celebration in Hanalei. We'll be following you every day. What's the difference if it's 5 or 10 more with the lifetime of memories it will bring. Make the most of it. Read, fish, talk to Kermit, be safe, enjoy Sparky and the journey and know we're thinking of you!!" - Bill & Karen
