Hi Pat and Fred - Glad to see that you are underway and doing well. Will be following your adventures with great interest. Life here in Beirut is interesting. We are all waiting for parliament to elect a new president. Hopefully a compromise candidate will be identified and chosen. If not, there is a real concern that there will be violence, which is certainly not new to Lebanon. Take care and have a wonderful time. I hope it will be an even better experience than last year! Ciao. Jeff Muzzy

Wayne Bumm | bumsrest at aol.com -- Friday, May 4, 2007 | 07:15:20

Hello Fred & Pat, Patti & I are in Alligator River Marina.It was a rough trip yesterday,winds were gusting around 30 knots and we were concerned that the bridge may not want to open for us.35 knots is when they will not open.If you read this before you leave Dowry Creek,try to contact the Alligator Bridge,they had a problem after we went through and could not re-open for a few hours.It did open later on at night and a few boats were able to get through.I went on your site and saw Chick,on 'Illusion',they are right next to us.We are staying an extra night to let the wind calm down a bit,Chick may head to Elisabeth City later today and hopes that you catch up to them there.Nice Site,Take Care, the Bum's
