Mike drove from Oklahoma to Tampa Bay, leaving nearly a week before the March 5 Safety Inspection date. Since he is driving, he was able to pack a little heavier than I was. Jackie was in charge of provisioning and she has prepared a variety of heat-n-serve meals. Her daughter also pitched in. I think we'll be able to eat like kings for a month or more.

I ain't never sailed in a boat big enough for a cooler before.
