It was sure a great event. The hospitality and welcoming manor of the folks associated with this site is amazing.
Special thanks to the Benjamin clan for the planning, hospitality, and of course letting us beat on all of their fast boats! I arrived about 3:45 this morning and promptly hit the sack. The mustang trailer towed like a dream without issue but the truck was another story. The pinion bearing started to give up the ghost about 150 miles east of Cleveland. Thankfully the turd got me back to Indy. Great to see some old friends and meet all the new ones.

What extradionary hosts. Tough to put into words the effort of planning and execution for bringing all of this and those of us yahoos that began descending upon the Benjiman Family Compound on Thursday and continued to arrive on Sunday. What a great time with old and new friends.
Kristin and I have arrived safely back in NC without incident and as I recall there was not a bout of shame this year... Thanks to all that attended or had a part in making this awesome event happen! Cheers |

It was a great time as usual. Great to see old friends and meet new ones, and the Benjamins are a great family to spend time with. Dave and I had a blast! There were a lot of boats and Alan and Dana showed up with the Hurricane. It looks better in person than in the pictures! A big thanks to the whole Benjamin clan for being such great hosts. I've got a few pictures for now...

This forum is a family. Never more evident than at the annual Benjamin Clan gathering I just spent my second year attending. Skiing, boating, family fun, good food just awesome. Several highlights but I am sure others will get to that and Tim Morfoot's pictures will tell it all, specially the group shot. Looking forward to the next as I sit here!

I made it there and back safely. Thank you so much to Benjamin family for opening your compound to your CCF family. You guys are awesome. The hospitality shown by so many of the Benjamin clan confirms what most on this site already know. You guys are a special family.
It was great to see so many old friends again and meet many new friends. I look forward to seeing you all again soon. Safe travels to everyone. |

Yes, have a blast everyone! I think I'm destined to just be reading this thread until my kids are all out of school. Always seems to be some family event going on because it's the week before they start school again. Enjoy!!!

Should be pulling out of the office within the hour, just waiting for my neighbor to turn his back so we can grab the Prevost. Tim we might need a little more lawn space!

You're right, I forget that MD isn't *that far*. Just make sure you do the tappan zee and not the GW around NYC and you're golden. Tow the promo if it's handy!
