Love the beard!!!!! Have fun.
You two are so cute! We miss seeing you.
My cousin is a star!!!!!! Great seeing both of you again and can't wait until we get you both back in New England.
Life in a tropical paradise, oh my!
The Swigs rule!
I was thrilled to see you on TV last Sunday night on Channel 3, and must have your autograph. Paul, if you win a race, we'll take up a collection for a new hat.
I want to join the Useppa Island PIGGs club, but I'm not previously important, geriatric, or, really, a gentleman. Is there some kind of waiver?

They live on an island with no bridge to the mainland, cut off from the mainstream and -- one could romantically speculate -- all the pressures that come with it. Forget cars and traffic: Boats, golf carts, and feet are their main mode of transportation. Forget typical time schedules: Their islands dictate a way of telling time according to tides, nesting seasons, and sunset. Yet they are faced with their own set of challenges – island fever, for one. They are the unbridged islanders of Useppa, who keep good company with Calusa spirits and the memories of an elite brand of fisherman from the 1910s.
