Hello from blustery Swansboro. If this is what winter feels like I am over it already. The best part of my stop in Swansboro was getting to see my Niece Jenny and her husband Andy and daughter Anna. It was my first time ever to see Andy and Anna. They drove over Saturday from Goldsboro, NC and we spent the day together. Ruby was ok with Anna until she let out with one of her blood curling screams. Most of the rest of the time Ruby was hissing and bowing up. Anna finally patched up their misunderstanding by giving Ruby some cookies. Ruby will tolerate most anything for a treat. I woke up this morning to 15-20 mph north winds and temps in the 40-50 range and decided to stay another day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better so we can head to Wrightsville Beach. I have posted pictures of Andy, Jenny and Anna on the web. You can see them by clicking on the following link, http://liveaboardsvpapillon.homestead.com/Chartourcourse.html
