While we have been here in Texas, Cindy gave us a five leaf clover...yes, five. So with the extra leaf and the special gift from her for the safety of our boat while we are away from her, it has worked wonders. As soon as we left Ernesto came along, then Florence, and then Gordon. I am scared to look and see what is next. We will be going back on the 20th so I can stop worrying. Next time it will be only a 2 week trip.
Then my other boat, Jibsaw Puzzle, a 1986 Hunter 26, that is for sale at Lake Country Marina in Fort Worth, Texas was hit by a storm which caused all kinds of havoc including tearing apart and moving the entire 200 foot plus dock up against the breakwater and other slips and moved it 500 yards in to the lake!
Here are the pics of the dock disaster... you don't have to have Facebook to view them.

As noted we will be home to our girl soon and I can stop worrying.
