So a few of us CCFans who talk and text regularly off the site decided to put down the phones and spend some time together on "Lake X" in Tenn. this past week. Nothing formal or fancy just a few close friends enjoying some ski time together for a long week of skiing, footing, and boating. The View from Bill Berry's place (Jbears Brother) Waiting out the Rain............. "On the Pontoon!" Mike Mars in the 2001 SN Midweek Correct Craft Cruise. Vandygayle doing backflips off Adams shoulders off with Scotts help. Monahans new 89 Barefooter ( that thing is MINT! ) Jeanni and the 73'! TEAM RED VARSITY SQUAD!..... 95, 90, 89, 88, 75, 73 Jeanni lost her steering cable on the group takeoff so we made the best of it and got some snaps. storm34's dad Mike cutting it up. A man and his dog....... Skipper loves the water as much as Reid does. Gary trying to get some sun on those white legs of his!!! Gary and Mary Frances in the 95 Sport. For those of you who don't know Reid.......The man NEVER skis unless he has flawless conditions and has his old school ski. Well after seeing me shred Barefoot Cove on an old school slalom he said.." Footie.....I gotta get me some of that!" Holy crap...dude are you serious......you never ski! ..... "I know, but you gotta old school ski and I can't pass this up!" ... Don't let him fool you...for a guy who hasn't slalomed in years.......He's still got it! Yes Ladies and Gentlemen,........Gary S does ski! Garys wife Mary Frances had seen enough from "Spectator Cove" and put on a pair of skis and after 25 years she tried 3 times and almost made it! Proud of her at 63 years young and giving it a whirl. Reid and Laurie cruising in Miss Scarlett! So Miss Vandygayle had seen enough of the swerving and wanted to give it a go so Mike and I worked with her and got her to drop one. How can you not slice up glass in Skier/Barefoot Cove. Adam in Gary Blackburns 73! Tim's 90 Even the ladies ski in barefoot cove! Vandygayle getting some instruction from the Deen boys on how to Foot.....By gollies she did it second attempt. That girl is an animal! These clowns decided to park their &^%$ Houseboats right in the middle of our ski cove, And what has become a tradition with the crew gathered there. Its a trick ski run back to the marina to close out a great weekend with some close friends..... (The looks on the faces of the HB owners was priceless as Jackie came right at them with the 4 in tow and turned around in a tight cove) A Twilight Trick Ski run to end the weekend! Thanks Friends! |

You and your better half are just as guilty as Mike, Reid, Gary, Mary Fran, and I with the multiple trick ski runs in your precious Barefoot Cove! Therefore, it should be called Skiers Cove but Barefooters and Scuba Divers are welcome!
You Damn right I'm off double secret probation! |

So we've been doing this for several years now and there is always some crazy stunt that occurs at some point during the week. Well this week was no exception...... Since we seem to have a few Footers doing there thing and the water of Lake X is pretty clear I wondered what a barefooter looked like from under the water. Well.......where there is a will....there is a way..... Wasn't the best video but I got it a couple days before I left so I didn't get up to speed on how to operate it. The video is longer than it should be but only because I wanted to share with you what I heard as the boat was approaching my location. Don't blink or you just might miss it!
Scuba cove- Barefoot cove- What does an Airplane Mechanic do with the RC Super Air Nautique G-23 that was given to him by the Prez himself?.... Remember when you were a kid and played with a RC boat and wondered what it would be like to be in the drivers seat?.......Well.....now you know! |

Barefooters will always have priority!! 38,000 acres of mostly/normally glassy water for all other water activities.....shame, shame, shame! |

In the "who is your favorite ccfan" pageant does Jbear win in a landslide? None of us would have been on that lake at all if it wasn't for him. He certainly wins miss congeniality for that hair.
