Here is the Marine forecast for the area, up to 60NM out:

So it looks like full moon Sunday - bad timing....

I and trust me you would find your mask and rashguard as ocean trash as the defog on your mask would trash the optics on the lenses and domes on my rig, j/k. Plus i dont know alot about mel, but i have a feeling thats one thing you wouldnt want to get into a knot as i have a feeling that british background would pop up and you wouldnt like the result

Well I could use you and your daughter for a set of photos.

Know this about Melanie. No one has ever crossed her. Never. Do exactly what she says, and no one will get hurt.

Seriously - I mean that in a very nice way. The crew is the best I've been with, and they are exceptionally conscientious as well as friendly.

Danka, oh trust me Punky the WW has my number and then some, but it works out all in the end.

Looking off my deck, I can see the Gulf has kicked up quite a bit with the cold front and rain that has come in. I don't think it is supposed to last, however. It can get very calm again really quick. Hope it does so for you guys trip and very jealous that I am not getting to go. Will try to make one of the happy hours....
Back after a long absence - whew, too busy at work!

GOOD! Because I'm sitting at IAH waiting on Punky to pick me up. Going on two hours of sleep - hope I don't need to keep Sandy awake on the drive, but then (from what I've read in this thread about Sandy's driving) I may not BE ABLE to sleep! The good thing is that Sandy won't read this until AFTER she picks me up! :welcome:
