Shelbyville weekend

I think I am going to find a extra tarp for water protection. There are a lot of great sites back in the trees so we will stay dry for the most part. I keep looking at the weather page hoping the chances of rain back off even further. Also hoping the temperature gets warmer! It is going to be a bit cool on the lake.....but always looking forward to it.

Stopped by my folks place and got the old wood trick skis. Hoping I can still get up backwards. It will be fun for everyone else watching if I don't get up!

Catch you all later

wow what a scramble to get ready with the short work week. Finished prepping/loading the MH and boat about midnight and we're good to go right after work tonight. See y'all shortly. Drive safe.

Hollywood wrote: Thanks Gary, we will need to make a run or 2 over to the campground to let the dog out of the car for a bathroom break during the day on Saturday.

Hey Hollywood, I'll be doing the same for my dog. He'll be in the back of my truck with a fan blowing in the side window. Maybe we could arrange that if I go back I let your dog out with my dog too. That way they get out, and we both aren't worried about running back as much.

I'm not roll'n in till tomorrow late night. I hope to leave at around 5-6pm, and it'll take a good 3-1/2 hours. Stop for dinner.. I'm thinking about 10-11pm we arrive. I'll see you guys down there.

I will look around for a small fan to bring. I don't know how much juice they need, but I would think the battery would last long enough.

The cool(er) weather is a blessing for the hound.

*Shoe Ski Update*
I will have a set finished tonight but not one that I'm proud enough for you to keep. They will be the official CCFan shoe skis, and mailed around for anyone wanting to use them. You always think of a better way to do something after the first attempt.

skip the converter and bring a regular fan. The camp sites have electricity, so bring an extension cord and a fan, and what ever else you need.

I am still not sure if I will be able to make it down for the day on Sat or not.

It likely will be a last minute decision on Sat. morning.

Anyway, have fun everyone and be safe.

My thoughts exactly Reid. They are gonna have a blast.

Alan...know where you are coming from. I did WAY better my second time around!

Have fun guys!

3 on the way in a few hours. Shelbyville is cursed! Same crap last year but it turned out pretty nice.

Have the truck packed and boat is ready. I am anticipating some fun weather this evening....probably right when we get there. But it is supposed to taper off. This weather crap is making me pissed. One minute it is going to brew a tornado...then sunny. I know we are going to head down there and have a great time no matter what. I have the top for the boat so we are headin' to the water regardless of weather.

Plan on leaving around 5ish and arriving at Wolf Creek around 6:30 or so.

Despite some bad weather late Friday night and the first half of the day Saturday it was a great weekend! We had about 15 people, 5 CC's, and 1 MC (which had to be towed in on Saturday). Alan, Rob, Gary, Todd, and Brian all had their boats there. I hitched a ride with Hollywood and Carolyn. The three of us came down boatless, but as always with people from this site, we were offered all the rides and pulls we could handle. Rob's 97 SNOB was a real workhorse and did a ton of towing. Between all of us I think we did about everything you can imagine behind a boat over the course of the weekend... Barefooting, Slalom Skiing, Combo Skiing, Kneeboarding, Wakeboarding, Shoe Skiing, Trick Skiing, Wakeskating, Hydrofoil Skiing, Show Skiing (ie: Pyramids), and we even threw some jumpers on and messed around (unfortunately we didn't have an actual jump to go off). I think all we were missing was some wake surfing and an air chair, not too shabby. Thanks to everyone that was there! It's always a great time when we get together! Pictures coming soon...       

Pic's......???

Hope you all had a good time!!

I've received a leaked exclusive video from last weekend at Shelbyville.

Gotta be someone from the PLBC.

As said by Johnny, Todd, and Alan, we had a great weekend. The weather on Friday was great, Saturday on and off, and Sunday perfect. This weekend once again proves what a great group of CCfans we're fortunate to have in this area of the country. Cool boats, great people, and a lot of fun.

Dena and I had a great time, and it was worth the drive. Thanks to Alan and Dana for putting us up in the Bounder all weekend, and to Hollywood for relieving me of some of the driving duties sunday so I could watch. Also to Gary and his son Lauren, for being patient with me trying to get up on a wakeskate (even if it was behind a mastercraft ), which I was able to do, only to be shown up by Alan later popping right up on his first try. Oh well.

We got a couple of pyramids up as mentioned. The first one was Alan and Hollywood as bases with Johnny climbing, then Todd and I as bases on kneeboards, again with Johnny stepping off a slalom and climbing.

Tons of pics to follow. Hopefully tomorrow.

PS    I almost forgot. On the way home we were treated to a PLBC mooning. Nothing like 2 pale asses glowing in the dark out the window.

Johnny wrote: f Alan hadn't told us the last time he LONGLINE footed was in 92 we never would have known. He looked solid as could be out there.

For wake/table reference that is 90' of line (NOT counting the handle) behind Rob's '97 SNOB @ ~40 mph.

Dena again, one of my favorite shots of the weekend.


Dana and Carolyn were having a lot of fun out there.


There were a bunch of cameras out over the weekend, don't know who's got what.
