87; Must be the correct type of bait that you put in the net to get a catch like that.
MM: I know you must be proud of Blondie and I sure appreciate the thought on my b-day but I am surprised that you would let her post one of your special pics of her! john |

Awww, I missed it!
Happy belated B-Day JBear! My Sig on another site: "Yes, I am a pirate two hundred years too late - I'm an over forty victim of fate!" But, with another b-day next week, I'm rolling closer to that "over fifty victim of fate" too. I feel blessed to be able to still be playing Hockey & hanging around CC's. Only as old as you feel (or act ).
Hope ya had fun. If I ever roll the RV down your way, we'll have to meet up. And, of course, if you're ever up to the Northeast, I'm sure it would be reason for a party! |

Mike: 70's, sunny here today. Shout across your lake and ask JEFF how it is down here. We skied together during his and Laurie's visit in November.
Dan: Scott's visit was super. Except when he told me how old he is now. And I know you are a little older. But Like Nauti says 'you are only as old as you feel or act", so I am doin' ok on both accounts. Again: Thanks to all the great people on here who took the time to post here. What a bunch! john |

Happy belated B-day. I had a Beam and Coke for you at the campfire Saturday night. How long does it take to get used to that stuff?
 Had to shoot it to finish it off and then chase with a frosty miller lite. Didnt pour a second one.  Sunday took a barefoot run in your honor!! Cheers!

Darrel; My personal favorite way is to mix the Beam with Diet Coke with Lime. Heavy on the Beam, lite on the coke and ice.
Miller Lite or Mich Ultra is my drink on the boat out of the cooler. After skiing of course and only one or two if I am still away from the dock. Kudos on the Barefoot run. I ain't had one lately and i am kinda needing one. john |

It's been a few months since his birthday, but I wanted to share a few pics from our 2 visits this winter. Thanks again John & Patti, if anyone gets a chance to atleast meet up for a photo op or dinner I highly recommend it. These are from February.
Showin' off the ladies. 
Eddie's rig. Thanks again Eddie that boat runs and looks awesome! 
Talking about the water. There was a little chop as you will see in later pictures, we drove to 3 different lakes and settled back on the first one. These guys are spoiled! 
The crowded ramp. 
One of jbear's friends from the West Shore Water Ski Club back in Ohio. 
Carolyn skiing RFF, a first, and necessary for the ballet line. 
HW & backfoot100. I biffed the first attempt because I barrel rolled off the wake and Eddie skied the length of the lake leaving me with the gators. I deserved it. 
John jumped out and we tried flanking Eddie backwards in the middle but we just couldn't quite get out of his way. We'll get it next year. What isn't in pictures is on video, including most of John and I skiing. Couple of guys I ran into at Old Town. 
Although currently Florida residents, they are native Midwesterners! |

Thanks for the post HW....made me remember what a great time we had.
We did do a triple deep with us all forward but couldn't quite pull it off with Eddie bacerds between us. Next year. First pic was at the famous Cherry Pockets that we have shared with a few of you guys. A local favorite hangout. Gotta see it to believe it. The rough lookin' guys (lol) in the PLBC shirts were from Olde Towne. Quess there was no pictures from the go-kart track. HW tried to get us tossed out with his driving skills. What a blast. Always a great time with Eddie and JoAnne. We love having guests. There might be some more interesting pictures showing up soon. Stay tuned. We are smack in the middle of the state Rob. Between Tampa and Orlando. You better save some time to see us. We'll try to show you and the wife a good time. CQ: I was trying to go easy on him. Last visit we did a little to much Beam in the evening. Altho we still did justice to the better part of a bottle. Carolyn made us go to bed early so we could ski. When can I mark you and Maddie on the calender? john |

Kevin, those pics are too cool. I still have to figure out how to edit video to post on youtube so I can post some of the vids.
Anyway, it sure was nice to meet you and Carolyn. Had a great time with you guys. Can't wait 'til we can do it again. |

When people run down to the lake to see what's making that noise, you've succeeded.
