of this I have no doubt. So I am also glad to be inland in spite of my great love for the sea. Last year we had some major spring flooding and I was outside with my snow shovel pushing water off of my walkways. My mail carrier came by and I told her that I had always wanted to live next to the water, but this wasn't exactly what I had in mind.

The T. C. Boyle book does sound quite good so I am going to be looking out for that one. Thanks!
