Made it to Baltimore without much trouble.  Snowed till around 10pm with accumulations to about 8".   Temps overnight dropped to below 10 making cleaning off the car a pain.  Picked Tom up at 5:10am and then drove to the airport with Joan's brother in law Robert.  Luckely, our flight was on time (thank you Southwest).  The plane took a flightpath down the western side of the Bay that enabled Tom and I to see every river off the western shore, Norfolk, the Dismal Swamp, the sounds of North Carolina, as well as Beaufort and Cape lookout bight. 

Got into San Juan at 2 (a little late), got bags and onto the Seaborne puddle jumper to St. Thomas.

Well, it's T = minus 1.  The good news is I'm packed and ready for Joan to pick me up in an hour for the drive down to Baltimore.  The bad news is the worst snow storm of the year began this morning and is scheduled to be over at around midnight tonight.  Joan cancelled her appointments tomorrow morning and plans to leave Baltimore early in the morning for the drive back.  I'll be riding to the airport with Tom Hosford (Pintita crew member) in the morning.  I wonder what the chances will be of a delay in the flights tomorrow.
