LOL! I suspect you'll be passing us soon if you haven't already. We are currently visiting friends on the west coast of Florida and are getting some work done on the boat. Looks like we won't be leaving Vero until Monday the 21st at the earliest. Of course given that it was 25 degrees in Connecticut this morning, I'm not complaining!

That's actually how we do our budget (IOW, I set aside money each month on a pro-rated basis) and I debated doing these reports that way, but decided to go with a cash flow instead.

I not leaving Jacksonville till mid Feb. So I might catch and pass you but it will be because we have done FL a few times and might chose to just go fast.
