First snow of the year landed this morning, not a great deal but enough to necessitate clearing it off the car before taking the wife to the local ferry.

So this means (in old english translation) that you took your wife to her hair dresser? 😎

I think I can help with the translation Jim. I think what Mr. Quatro was referring to with regards to the " local Ferry. " He was referring to a guy who works in a Boutique or hair salon and may well be " a little light in his loafers. " That's a more delicate description. You were referring to the boat.

After a few meetings today I found out I may end up with a long term apartment in Cleveland as my base for a lot of work.


Hope that don't stop the planned job in Dallas that I'm hopeing to get for the winter.
