That might be a better question for Air 206?

Wish we could make it, enjoy guys!

Steve and Val have a conflict. Their perfect attendance is in jeopardy. Tim is in the same boat.

John Justice and maybe one other will be there Saturday. Bringing blue 1984 SN2001. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Air 206 = Air 210 ?

Air 210 will be in his 88 2001 lol

Water was nice this weekend. I’ll let greg fill us in on temp. Def mid 70’s at least.

Gorgeous down here too this weekend. Warm all week, so even tho saturday is going to be a little cooler (down here, upper 70s is a little cooler) water should be great.

Bill,

Missed you this year. Here is a video of most of the 4 man runs, there were several. The cast of characters is listed for each one. Woody and Allen are two friends of Gregs, Dave is Dave Hart from Maine.



The next day John and I did this doubles run, which did not end well for me.

Did not happen. Hopefully some other time. I think it would be a hoot. Not that I would be a particularly strong competitor, but it would be fun to participate/witness.

As Buckethead veterans, I had Scott or Dave as favorites to win, but Woody or Allen are both just crazy enough to give them a good run for the money.

Holy cow...where to start....


Gotta start 1st off with a big thanx to Greg & Sue for opening up their beautiful lake house for this event. Once again they had people sleeping everywhere. Thanx for the delux accomadations for Patti & I & Jordee. Sorry about all the dog hair. Sue's patience with this whole event is incredable. Think 50 people boating cooking out drinking and wandering in & out of your house for 3 days.

As usual part of the fun of these events is meeting people we have here to fore only met "on-line"....this years count for me was: Audiodude (Art)....triplett (Mike) and his awesome family...Todd & Alan the Air Chair guys...you should see Todd's videos! and Woody & Alan..2 of Greg's footin buddies.

Thanx to all who brought food especially Jesse & Dave for the incredable pig roast....what a team...Jesse cooked and Dave watch and drank beer. And Dave...once again I did not get to drive the yellow boat...

Special mention has to go out to Couz Donald who musta bought out Bojangles entire saturday morning run of biscuit sandwiches....delicious.

Hope we did not scare off Tim's prospective in-laws. They probobly had no idea what kinda 'family' their daughter is marrying in to.


I got to double with Dave Hart and of course Larry Hineline. Missed out on the 4-mans on friday.

Thanx to Justin Landers for loaning me and Patti his rocket ship of an outboard boat on friday. He even let Jordee ride.

Got to see Reid and Laurie....blessing to see Reid none the worse for wear after his hurricane adventure...


Was cool to spend time with the Monahans but sure did miss my brother.....

I probably left out someone or something....but will leave you all with this. Patti and I drove 10 hours on friday...skied a little then skied on saturday then drove 10 hours home on sunday. So it was 20 hours of driving to spend a day and a half with C/CFan friends and family....worth every turn of the wheel!

LOST AND FOUND

Nice recap Larry and huge shout out to the Fossets for opening their home to a bunch of SkiBums for a weekend of Boating, footing' skiing, eating and drinking. Heather and I had a great time and even her parents who aren't skiers had a blast. Thanks to all y'all who reached out and made them feel welcome. They almost didn't come because they don't ski and they didn't know anyone. Hanging out with CCFans and seeing our ski family in action, they let us know that they both wanted try waterskiing again. Y'all Rock!
As always, there were new friends made, new boats to drive and ski behind ( thanks Larry) and never enough time to hang with everyone for long spells. Thanks to those that helped in providing stuff for the troops. I'll close with the group email I got from my co-worker who heads this up.......
