Green Lake Reunion Update w/ Photos

For me, this is perhaps best statement I could ever read. Knowing what kind of boating experiences Reid has had, to have him say this about Green Lake just gives me a huge sense of pride. I would guess even more so for Alan and Dave who did all the work for Green Lake.

The weekend was amazing. My greatest accomplishment with this site has been to bring good people together who are now life-long friends. To think that two days in Green Lake isn’t enough and many of you where there Wed-Sun, some traveling over 1,000 miles to be there, it just blows my mind.

There is much more to say about the weekend but most of all I want to say thank you. Thank you to Alan and Dave, with out them Green Lake wouldn't exist. And thank you to all who came this year and last year, making it such an amazing event.

We’ll be collecting all the photos through an FTP upload and then distributing them to everyone via the site and, if there is enough interest, a 2008 printed calendar. In the mean time, please keep posting photos for all to see.

I enjoyed it as well.

Well Chris I must have missed your post. For awhile I thought that maybe you were spending some time in the GL jail! Glad to here that you made it home.

Actually that was a direct quote from a few weekends ago when Feelgood, Johnny, Hollywood and I where out on my lake skiing and this clown (no kids) showed up pulling a tube around behind his Babe Winkleman Special, we chased him right out of there.

We are saving the whole jail thing for when we all head down to visit Reid, always wanted to taste Aunt Bee's cooking!!

PS: spell check, hear not here!!

I convinced the lovely Courtney there that this old boat only had a 3 gallon fuel tank, so she wouldn't wonder why I kept coming back so often to refuel.

Thought that comment might get a rise out of you

Seriously, thats a lot of boat to get out of the water. Ive seen the same thing before with an '89 on our lake trying to pull up a lot of skiers.

I sure glad I wasnt standing inside my wake in that chop- that table is sweet. Thanks for the pull!

We made it home...what a great trip..we had a awsome time, it was great meeting all of you, Thanks to all, for showing us a great time!

Tim, yeah it got a rise out of me. I was glad to see you guys get up. I really would like to have tried a four man deep up pull but the water just would not let us. Maybe next year.

I would have liked to see your boat run one time but was never around when you driving it.

who is this????

You are correct on all accounts

Hard to tell who is happier, the dog or the boy......

And just when the last image was starting to fade.
