We hop a plane from Atl to MKE tomorrow evening. Barring flight issues we should be in GL around 9pm or a little after.
We look forward to seeing old friends and making a long list of new ones!!! |

I'll hopefully be behind you on Fri morning doing the same thing. The flights are starting to get a little tight. What's in MKE that's causing a mass of people to get there? ( other than some silly CCFan reunion
 )

When there's only 10 flights in and out per day, is easy to create a "mass" of people!! I'll be hitting the road tomorrow morning sometime and figure I'll be in GL around noon. I just need to pick up the boat at the sign painter. The 64 has never had the name painted on the transom. Since I had the time, I figured now was the time to do it while there was still someone around that can still paint and not just stick vinyl on. It's not appropriate to put vinyl decals on a wood boat!! I've been on "pins and needles" for about 6 weeks since I turned in my vacation time request. Due to this large project at work and me heading it up, the request was denied!! I finally went in to our owner on Monday and got the OK!! I've been loosing sleep on this one! |

Adding to an earlier post, all of our clothes will be pressed...pressed into a small bag that is.
Morfoot, are you bringing the silver pen you had at the masters? |

I'm having to jump through hoops to get there but none the less I'll be there. Working for an airline has it's perks but can sometimes be a real pain in the arse. Can't get there straight from ATL so it looks like I'm headed to Minneapolis then swapping planes to Milwakee. Hope the flight is on time as we'll only have 30 minutes to run to the next gate. Still hope to be there round 12pm. You guy's road tripping be careful!

Well I guess I'm not gonna make it. I was holding my breath that I could get out of a pre-bid contractors meeting. But if I don't show then my bid won't be accepted. As we say in the Cubs world, "there's always next year".
Keith, could you send me everything,I can pay you on Paypal for the postage. Thanks. |

Sorry everyone for the lack of posts - just too much going on and couldn't find the time.
So many great people and amazing boats! The Friday night boat show had 50 boats and there were around 10 others that came throughout the weekend. Saturday was cold and overcast but it didn't keep people from getting out on the water skiing and footing behind the Orange Crush, hanging at the sandbar and test driving each others boats. There were over 200 people at the banquet Saturday night where Joe Fennessy's 83 Ski Nautique won fastest boat at 57.4 mph and Best Engine. The Dart took Best of Show by one vote over Alan Arrighi's 81 Ann. Edition Ski Nautique. Today was much warmer and Sunny. Many were leaving late or extenting their stay through tomorrow. I'm at the airport in Milwaukee. I'll be back home late tonight. I'll try to post some photos tomorrow. Thank you to all the made it out to Green Lake! I hope you had as great a time as I did. - Keith |

Just got home around 9 - kids are sound asleep! We had a great time, I was impressed with all of the great boats on hand - and would like to thank Allen, Reed, and Joe for the 'thrill rides'!
I wonder what a SAN would drive like with 450hp? See you guys next year! I promise to remember my digital camera battery next time so I can contribute to the photos!!!
