Vern is on his way back to Michigan to spend time with his other daughter, and will be back here, both in California and at The Cave, January-ish. Until then, he leaves us his email address - seawolf1930@msn.com - and a book of his songs and poetry that is here at The Cave. It's good to see Vern, and I look forward to his squeezing us in for another visit between voyages. Come home safely, O'Captain.
(fyi: Vern likes The Cave remodel.)
