You may (or may not) be asking yourself: "Where has that Lola been lately? Why, she used to spend half her weekend in the Rain...now, well..."

OK, I flatter myself, I'm sure I haven't been missed--even so, I've been having Adventures In Sailing! Yay! As my good friend Capt. Bob would say: "Believe me, my young friend, there … (8 comments)
