[Rhodes22-list] The Legacy of Philip Rhodes

[Daniel Snyder]

Thanks for the clarification Ed.  There are no fair winds in the 
north...only cold winds.  -6 here this morning with 18-20 inches of snow 
predicted for tomorrow.  We're headed to the New England Boat Show in 
Boston this weekend which is about as close as I'll get to a boat for 
awhile.  Wish it weren't so!  Dan in NH
