You are really moving fast.<BR/> Your encounter with the ship scared us though. We are happy to know that you are alright. <BR/>We wanted to tell you Happy New Year......that is straight from the 2nd graders. <BR/>We are supposed to get snow tonight. Another storm is coming toward Binghamton. Have a good weekend.<BR/>We'll write again on Monday.<BR/>Mrs. Black and groupAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11187934870780794213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-87927634112856554362009-01-09T17:00:00.000+00:002009-01-09T17:00:00.000+00:00Paul,To say that everyone here at GA is proud of y...Paul,<BR/><BR/>To say that everyone here at GA is proud of you would probably be an understatement. Your blog and GPS Tracker are being displayed in the kitchen for all to keep track of you. I know I've told everyone I know about Row For Hope (which somehow, I think you can believe). We can't wait to have you back - safe, sound, and clean-shaven!<BR/><BR/>I'd love to see pictures of those dolphins, if you took any.<BR/><BR/>Keep eating!<BR/><BR/>Denise (GA)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-74461135763192522262009-01-09T16:37:00.000+00:002009-01-09T16:37:00.000+00:00That was the best blog yet!

I'm sure the rowing aficionados out there loved it! While you're taking all these pictures, is there any chance you could take some pictures of some of the fish you've seen? Have you been able to row at night yet? Are you planning on it? <BR/><BR/>Ok, now for your sports update:<BR/><BR/>YOUR Florida Gators won the national championship last night, beating the much slower Oklahoma Sooners in a very well played game (from what I hear, at least). Final score: 24-14. <BR/><BR/>Everybody's getting excited around these parts for Eagles/Giants and in general for the playoffs this weekend. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work! Great hearing from you.johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07456529409021629188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-31026609914955869082009-01-09T15:20:00.000+00:002009-01-09T15:20:00.000+00:00Thanks for the updates, Paul.

I'm sure it feels like a mouse hole to you though. <BR/>Anyway, I have been reading your blog everyday and I find it really facinating. I tried rowing in the Susquehanna River once against the current, just to see if I could. The answer to that would be no, I couldn't. I made it about 2 miles! LOL! So picturing you battling waves for days has me awestruck. <BR/>Good luck in your quest. We are cheering for you!<BR/><BR/>Lori - Endicott, NYAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
