I'm still here at work but expect to sneak out the back door at noon. I pulled the boat in with me this morning so I don't need to stop at home to get it. I should be at the Bay view around 2:30 to 3:00. See everyone this evening.

Sitting around the campfire here in GL. 81Nautique wanted me to drop a note to say hi to everyone.
Lots of fun today as everyone began flowing in. Put about 10 boats in the water. Already large piles of empties plus a campsite birthday party for Mrs. 62Wood. BKH |

Getting ready to call it a night. Plan on leaving about 8:30 tomorrow morning. I talked to TRBenj an hour ago, and he was making his way through South Bend, on his way to Quinners house. If all goes well, we plan to meet the convoy tomrrow somewhere north of Chicago. Should be 7 or 8 strong.
Boat's packed, truck's packed, my suitcase is packed, just have to get the wife going. Told her departure time is 7:30, so hopefully 8:30 is realistic  Hope to see a lot of you soon. Safe travels to all.

about 32 hours for me before I hit the road and time can not go by fast enough. Worse then a 6 year old on x-mas morning.

Envious?
Let me see; A weekend on the water. Looking at, riding in, skiing behind, some of the sweetest classic ski boats in the country. Enjoying a few/many libations with the characters behind all of these threads. Envious is a serious understatement! |

The rest of us knuckleheads that can't make it to GL are seriously envious about now (maybe I should speak for myself and not all the rest...) Hope you all have a great time and maybe we'll see you next year. My weekend is going to be replacing a brake line on my Suburban that gave way last Friday in the driveway! Just glad we weren't on the road.

Well I hate to say it, but I lost the battle with my wife for a vacation in WI that included Green Lake Reunion. I really wanted to meet all the regulars on the site, or my second family as my wife would put it
. We are headed to Negril, Jamaica instead, without the kids, so it should be a pretty cool escape from reality.
I've got good Ca representation with BKH holding down the fort for the California contingency. So hope you all enjoy and take plenty of pics. And I trust that 79 will drink Hollywood under the table on Saturday night. A bummed out todicus

Correct. I guess when you've travelled 2000 miles, 50 miles seemed like it was just down the road. Other than roadside pornshops and fireworks stands, there wasn't much I remember between the Mercury and Harley plant

Steve,
I believe Brian actually meant "down the road" but by about 50 miles... Merc is in Fondie, Harley is down near Milw... Moj' |

Lived in MKE all but 4 years of my life and my wife worked at Harley. I don't know of any plants in Fond Du Lac where the Mercury factory is. Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, Menomonee Falls and Tomahawk are the only plants I know in WI. Enlighten me if I'm wrong. I'd just hate to see someone on a wild goose chase. HD Factory Tours |
