Ed,

Well, thanks a lot for making us feel even worse for not attending the rotary event of the year.  Here we sat in severe-clear weather but unable to breach the front which stood in our way of getting to Florida.  No amount of positive thinking would make it go away.  I heard rumors that certain people, who will remain nameless, cheat by flying in two days early.  I would have had to leave Austin on Monday in order to beat the front.  I doubt that Tracy and Laura would want me under foot for that long.
