Quinner Mini-2015 Aug 22-23

I have a propane tank I can bring--

Thanks Gary, please bring your spare tank!!

Speaking of tanks.... is the Blue SS feeling better???

Joel, Lake is 60' deep and spring fed, take more then a few cool nights for that. Water temp is hovering around 80f at the surface.

Looks like we are around 30 people, neighbors, stragglers & local friends could easily bump that by another 10 or so, ballpark 35-40.

Both tanks are ready to go!

Might try to dig up a rider and see if I can make this.

Jamin, if you do manage to make it please feel free to bring the Peelers with you, don't have any scheduled.............Yet :)

well that settles it, I was thinking of flying in, but no Pete, no dice. Of all the people from this site I've met, Mr Keep it Original still eludes me.

Looks like it's going to be a great time. Tried getting a flight. best (cheapest) way is with a layover either in Charlotte or Dallas . So maybe next time. Wish it was next weekend so could of made it. Have fun and post pics. And Chris I should start hanging out with your girlfriends. I'd look soo thin

Joel,
I'm heading up tomorrow morning early. It will be my 4th trip with the truck and trailer full. Then, I figure 4 more trips with the truck and trailer! Damn, I married a "pack rat"!! She didn't like my idea of getting a dumpster! The moving company comes in a couple days before the closing for the big stuff. I sure hope my wife's estate sale goes well! I bought this hose in 76 and we renovated in 83. Lot's of years to accumulate things. A friend told me the other day that when going through the move hassle, you need to think about how many times you bring things into the house and the few times you take things out!!

Paul,
I did check Ryder, Uhaul and a local independent. They all wanted around $600 for one day and $850 for two days. That's way too much driving (600 miles), loading and unloading in two days especially by myself. At least diesel is cheap at the moment.

Big thanks to Quinners for inviting us out this weekend. We had a good time even though we had to be towed in by Swany.
Thanks to Hollywood, Alan and Gary for helping figure out the problem.
Hope to see everyone at Clinton Lake.
Thanks,
Brian

CQ, I might need the plans for that shore dock shed thing. We need that, exactly, at the lake house.

Not too shabby for an event that was planned three whole days out. Too bad I'm so far away. I'm sure it was a good time. I miss having a little 12 footer with a 10 +/- hp motor to zip around in. My brother had one when we were kids. Still has the boat but the 1957 evinrude although still in his possession hasn't run in decades

Randy did show up with his two boys. Got to talk to him a little. Honestly there might not be a lot of pics, I didn't really see cameras out. Except all the cell phones came out right after I yanked HW off the swim raft starting a trick run because I gave it too much throttle. It got a lot of laughs....

Looks like a great time.
