There are more than enough lakes around us to ski, not interested in that. Would like to drive by that's all.
I was talking to a guy near Fox Lake who said he got totally "snubbed" by your friend's group Larry. |

Guys, it's called Clear Lake. The Clear Lake ski club. You turn right at the McDonalds in Island Lake off 176. Nish Rd?

Larry, ask Fred how his boat is doing.
"Fred's new boat: The ski club must approve all boats on the lake. Fred presented an example of a boat he was shopping for. It is in excess of 30 feet, and has a cabin suitable for temporary residence. OK, it’s a yacht! There was discussion to determine the club's views on the boat. Fred then moved that he be allowed to place such a boat on the lake with the stipulation that it will not be operated such as to form a wake, and that it will be docked near his lot so as to remain somewhat hidden from view. Additionally the decision to allow the boat will be re-visited in two years. The motion was seconded and approved by a 4 to 3 majority. The absentee ballots were then added and recounted by hand and the final outcome was 6 for, 3 against, and 1 abstain. Motion passed" |

Hollywood, that's two now. Go easy on my friend, please. There's not a nicer guy in the world. I have encouraged him to join us and you're picking on him already. I'm sure he's reading this stuff by now. You know people gotta be on here at least a week before they start getting picked on.

Larry, I apologize to you and Fred if he is lurking. I did not mean to be picking on him. It may have come across that way but I don't think I said anything negative towards their club. I said the guy I met said it was pretty exclusive, that's all. I'd like to meet him and anyone else over there. I look forward to cruising by in spring and peeping that dream setup they have! |

If I had a private lake, it would have one membership- mine, so I guess I can't blame them. We do need to keep in touch with Chicagoland skiers, regardless of where they ski. There's only like 15 of us so we've got to network as much as possible.

I have a friend with a ski-pond in his back yard about 10 miles outside of town here, complete with slalom course and a 93 mastercraft that has never been registered. Its shallow and narrow with trees on both sides, has to be a serious wind to even put up a ripple. No waiting for your allotted half hour on a saturday morning there. Him and his brother ski the course just about every week night and most saturdays and sundays late april through late october both are in thier early fifties and ski very strong. Not a bad way to live... |
