Oh James, as Billy said to me: "No need to worry about them bucco, they're even lazier then we are..."
Apparently, the people living there keep them well fed, so that they're not in the mood to do any effort whatsoever to hunt after their food... |

Yes I did brother! The skeet shooting was great, but the jong lad (son of the host) smoked all our asses... Damn that boy was fast! Shotguns are nice, but I still prefer a good sniper rifle... |

After flying from New Orleans to Cincinnati to Chicago to Paris and finally to Brussels, I got back home yesterday afternoon...
Sitting at my desk at work now while I type these words. It was the best vacation I ever had by far! Louisiana is an amazing part of the world. I had tons of fun with the BoatDr and the BoatNurse! They showed me around in their neck of the woods and I met many cool people down there. BoatDr also thaught me a few things about boats while we spent hours in his shop. Billy and Karen were absolutely amazing hosts and took very good care of me. The rides in the Mustang and the Dart on the lakes and bayous were fantastic! I'll get on the picture posting as soon as possible... Lots of great pictures were made. |

If you ask me Pete, he must do that during the night, cause he ain't got time to do it during the day...
It's just like you said... If the phone isn't ringing, he's on it |

If it's not ringing, that's because he's on it!! I've often wondered how he gets any work done! |

Guys guys guys, I'm in the South now, so I'm adjusting to the "keep it cool and just lay back"-thing...
Apparently, I don't have any difficulty doing that BTW BoatDr's phone rings like ALL the time... |

I haven't talked to the Doc in a while as I know he's been up to his eyeballs with work (course we know that ain't that far ) but now he's got "The Bathtub Belgian" on his hands. Just might have to call to shout at both of em.

I talked to Billy at about 9:00 (CST) this morning and Kristof was still in bed. Billy said something about him still being on a Belgian time schedule. I responded saying no, I think he's still a a GL recovery schedule!!
