Lazy Flamingo

Greetings from the East Coast,
I am a new member here, so for those who do not know me, I
will give you a little background.
First, I would like to say that I realize that there was a little to do
about letting me join, ( I did read that post ) and I can assure the
membership that I come here NOT to make problems with anyone
here.
My e-mail is open 24/7 to anyone who has a question or has other
reasons to contact me: lazyflamingo@att.net
I was invited to join some time ago, but during that time period, my
wife and I were not around much due to our extensive travels.
I am a member also of the BOC, just as are most the members here,
and yes, I have had some differences there. BUT as I see it, those
problems were yesterday, and today is a new day.
I have befriended good people from this group, and I have met some
of the members personally.
My name is Al, and the wife is Mary ....
I am retired, (2002) owning 2 retail businesses for just under 30 years.
I am a member of the Shriners, (25 years) Scottish bagpipe band.
I have sponsored 6 children into the Shriners Hospitals.
Mary is retired, (1999) Vice President - Bank of Boston - 34 years.
Many know me as: "The Lazy Flamingo", or as one of your members
( Seapuppy ) coined the phrase: "The Skinny Pink Chicken"
"Lazy Flamingo" is the name of our new boat.
We spend time between MA anf FL, and travel through Europe a couple
times a year, as well as Las Vegas, New Orleans, Sanibel & Key West.
I starting boating since the late 50's with my dad, and continued in 1969
after returning from Vietnam. I served in the Marine Corps, NOT drafted.
I have always, as did my dad, have antique mahogany boats with outboards.
Recently, I purchased a 2005 195 Bayliner, and am now looking to purchase
another for Florida.
I joined these forums, because I will need help with these new boats since
fiberglass and I/O's are new to me.
Will I be in your area ? More than likely, because we are starting to travel for
4/5 day weekends furthur west, plus I have been checking into something on
Catalina Island.
In closing, I am here to make friends, NOT make problems ......
