Often looks odd with a whole bunch of people standing way the heck out there, when the water's ten feet deep closer to the beach. Anyway, Jolly thought that word was "westbank."

Though it has been entertaining discussing one of our iconic leading ladies, and I won't bet over one dollar (US) that the pic's not in CT. I don't think it is. Scout, I'll take the NE storms any day over mid-west tornadoes, AZ dust storms or CA earthquakes. Shortly after your major disruption of the '89 World Series I took a ride north of SF because I was looking for some sunshine. Found it OK, and, not sure where it was exactly but I pulled into a seaside parking lot and got out to look around. Felt a couple of shivers when I looked at an official sign saying, "YOU ARE NOW STANDING DIRECTLY ON THE (whatever) FAULT LINE." Then took a walk down to the beach. A really big, beautiful one. Got closer to the water and met another big sign that said, something like, "SWIMMING NOT ADVISED. STRONG UNDERCURRENTS AND SIGHTINGS OF SHARKS."

Not disparaging the left coast where it's almost always "another beautiful day" but do like the right coast where, if you don't like the weather, you just "wait a minute."[/QUOTE]
