A Journal, with Pictures

Sat­ur­day start­ed with break­fast on your own at the Ocean Reef Club, which was first class. At 9:00 AM Chuck Daneko, from Winslow Raft Co. pre­sent­ed a hour pre­sen­ta­tion on water sur­vival. This was fol­lowed by a demon­stra­tion of raft deploy­ment and board­ing in the Lagoon.

The rest of Sat­ur­day was spent explor­ing, shop­ping and relax­ing at Ocean Reef, lead­ing up to cock­tails and dinner.

Cock­tails and din­ner were next to the lagoon dur­ing a per­fect evening.

Sun­day morn­ing the COPA pilots head­ed in all direc­tions, to the keys to pick up stone crab, back to the the mid-west to beat the weath­er, to home on the east coast and in our case to Ft. Laud­erdale to vis­it our daugh­ter, son-in-law and grand daugh­ter. A great week-end thanks to Den­nis and Jill. Mon­day we flew back to Hilton Head, SC to unpack from our migra­tion from Day­ton, Ohio and to set­tle in at our win­ter head­quar­ters. Hope­ful­ly the new COPA friends we made this week­end will vis­it us. Life is good in COPA land. (See list of reg­is­tered atten­dees on the next page).
