On a day like today, they should be selling sailboats

Today has not been a blue sky Florida postcard. It’s been grey, overcast, a few spotty showers, occasionally glimpses of sun, and windy, very very windy. While there aren’t really any sailboats on display, it sounds like there are as the various ropes and awnings clank against aluminum tent poles like halyards on masts. There have been a few gusts that make you want to step gingerly away from the tent on the off-chance that it’s about to become a large kite and head for Cuba. However, we're all in short sleeve shirts, most visitors to the show are wearing shorts, and it's apparently wet and in the 40s back home. I think we can handle the wind.
