We definitely hear you Todd..it's always a drag to have to cancel a trip to the island, but even more so I think when it's the yearly trip at the time you've always visited as that's always special..the weeks that started it all. You look forward to seeing the friends you see same time each year, among other things. We had to cancel our Nov/Dec trip this past fall as Richard was diagnosed with cancer in September and was busy fighting the beast. We ran into you and GaKaye at the Hole in the Wall last year if you remember. Richard used a trip to the island as his incentive to power through what ended up being a brutal process, and we're headed down the 15th so he can sit in the sun and continue to heal up. He had his 3 month scan a few weeks ago, and is cancer-free, so this trip will be very special. Sounds like you've got your priorities straight, and we'll miss you this November, but will look forward to running into you somewhere down the road.
Cheers!
