realizing my 60th year...a milestone birthday some say...caused me to seek
a longer diversion from the surreal world of work activities.

great tale of the inland seas, jeffie! jim, myself, plaintiff #2, and the
kids all visited shark island about 15 years ago. it was much smaller then,
almost covered with incredible numbers and styles of shells---a magical
place. we didn't fish, but a walk around the circumference was wonderful.

thanks again for the story, and for the fascinating email over the weekend.
i will reply, soon.
