Oh MAN... you have me litterally laughing my head off over here, Martin. I love your writing style. ha ha

I just got off the phone with my wife and she likes the idea as well. We had hoped to walk to work from the marina too, if at all possible. Sounds like it is. You know... it was the Old Port that I'm remembering from way back in the old days there.

Glad to hear it's a wonderful city. I think we're going to go for it, pending a little look at what kind of jobs there might be up there for my wife. I already saw plenty of contract and full time software development jobs in Portland, so I'm pretty happy about that (that's what I do).

The good part is, we're usually in bed long before 1AM (we are lucky to make it until 9PM ha ha ha). That's what boat life does... gets you on the schedule of the sun. So I imagine we won't be around at 1AM.

Again, thank you so much for this idea. We are very interested in Portland and are now considering work up there, as well as when we would make the jump. It might be this winter - or next.

And Jim... thanks for the additional opinion as well as the local knowledge about the harbor not freezing over much.
