got a new ski jacket and Sirius Sat radio. 'Course I have no idea how to install it. Read the directions out of desperation (usually never read 'em) may as well been in Latin. Got a history of Cypress Gardens...awesome show ski pictures. Bunch of other cool stuff.
Best gift? Sitting at Candelight service with Patti on Christmas Eve. Hope everyone here had as good a Christmas as I did! john |

I got a some calls and emails from my CC buddies for Christmas. I also received a box of Coca Cola stuff, which I collect. The old Correct Craft Script and the Coca Cola script are very similar.
I also got snow 
And, in our extended family's name draw, I drew my dad (now 85)and was able to give him an artist's hand drawn picture of a B17, just like he rode in 1944-45. Chuck |

I got a candy-cane style Masterline slalom rope. Sounds silly but I've always wanted one but have hesitated to cough up the 70.00 for a ski rope myself. Now I have one! Hopefully I can use some of the other sections besides 15 off this summer...

Sometimes you have to think outside the box a bit. I've wanted some LED tail lights, just to add a little bling to my trailer. Of course being the tight wad I am and because those would just be a silly, pointless luxury I would never spend my money on, I got an inexpensive set off ebay, had them delivered, gave them to my wife and said "here, I got a Christmas present that you or the kids can give me". They ended up under the tree from Santa. So I did (sort of) get one CC gift. Last year the kids gave me an ensign flag which was nice, that I proudly fly. |

We're getting rain!!! Thanks to anyone who sent a prayer this way.
If I had been told as a kid that I'd be beyond happy to get rain for Christmas, I'd have said they were nutz; but I have my shop door wide open so I can hear it. LOL Happy New Year All |

I also got a tremendous cold/flu that's had me knocked on my ass for the past 4 days. Can't wait to get better- I forgot how terrible it feels to be sick!

I will take both, coal for heat when I come in from playing in the snow. 
I got a new lap top and an internet card for the lap top, so I can check CCF anywhere I go as along as I have cell service. I will be able to post pics of the trip to GL as it's happening this year. |

Wow
I got the same thing as M3Fan, the flu. Mine only lasted one day, yesterday, but it was the day my family was snowboarding. I'm on the couch, and I keep getting phone calls from my buddy and my brother about how much fun they are having in the lodge bar. But, I was able to catch up on some DVD's that I've wanted to watch. I did get a GPS unit that I can use in the boat. I am curious to see how accurate my speedos are. BufBFN, congrats on the rain. Steve |

I saw over in the "Towing Rigs" thread that you used the word "towmotor" when you referenced a fork lift. That, my man, is showing your age.

Hey Guys,
My wife got me an InDo balance board. It's great for working on balance and core strength for both water and snow sports. I had a minor tear to my MCL barefooting this summer (among other trips to the ER) and it's great for rehabbing that. Its also just a lot of fun. I also got a ATC2K Waterproof Action Cam from my sister (lilkbags). It takes a 2 GB SD card and will record up to 60 mins. of 640x480 AVI video at 30 fpm. It won't replace my other camera but can get wet down to 10 ft. I've already strapped it to the kids as they sled in the back yard. I will be wearing it skiing on Saturday. It comes with a handlebar mount (for biking) that should work great on the boom for shooting head-on video of barefooting. -Keith |

You know, I saw that camera a while back and made a mental note to buy one, but I never did. I'll have to snag that to get some slalom footage for my site this summer. It would also be really cool to get footage of a deep-water footing start from the first person point of view. I got an indo board last xmas but after a couple weeks I lost interest in it. Some of the more advanced techniques, such as using it "longways" rather than side-to-side are alarmingly dangerous. Be careful that that thing doesn't end your season rather than helping it. |
