I would hope that you would know better Zack......this just begs for a comment...CQ beat me to it!

Sounds like a party is starting. I am jealous of you early arrivals. I will be arriving Fri. pm. I will have at least extra spsce in my tent or use as a loaner if IAughtNaut is flying solo. I can pick up a few bags of munches before I arrive. Even if the weather is a little less than perfect (a.k.a. Ct mini) A good time will be had. Just the fact that this group is gathering, is enough to make me make the trip.

Better post video of that thing running.

Tim I just found message from Dhart, I cant fit the motor in my small truck bed but if you guys can find away to get manifolds to me I would bring them up for you, you can call or text me anytime 321-231-6041

'Miss Scarlett' and I are headed for Pinkham Point picking up Nautiquehunter on the way....we will see y'all when you get there!

OK, let's see. I've been running around like crazy for the last few days and needed to stop and post an update. Just a few things to think about.

Weather: yes there appears to be the chance of a few showers but at least it's showing sunshine in between. Plus we've got ample room for everyone to hang out undercover and continue enjoying the camaraderie.

Food: we've pretty much got things covered on the large scale, with a fish fry happening Friday night and then good old Ruch cooking up a half dozen delicious butts for a Saturday evening BBQ. And to cover the daytimes, Joe is bringing the great NY hotdogs and Morfoot's going to have the smoker cooking up some good chicken. Laurie did however mention this morning that it would be great if someone could bring hot dog and burger buns as well as maybe a veggie tray or two. And unless it's already accounted for, it would probably be good to have some burgers to put in those buns. But napkins, plates, cups and silverware are all already here.

Beer: after watching myself and several others pack what must've been 50 bags of ice on the kegs at the big weekend at Tim's, I finally broke down and bought that kegerator I've been wanting for 30 years. And it's already loaded up and boy is that beer cold. I just checked first thing this morning to make sure :-)

Mr Ralph Meloon: As I believe Donald posted up earlier, Mr Ralph is indeed going to be at Race City Marine with Matt and the gang on Friday afternoon and much of Saturday. We were really hoping that those showing up might swing my and say hello to him on your way in. Without significantly disrupting water sports we were hoping to have a brunch of sorts at the dealership Saturday morning, but I'll see if I can't twist Matt's arm a bit to get Ralph out to the lake instead for that, so he can see some boats in action. Also Matt has just taken possession of his first 2015 and we definitely want to get a pic of that boat along with Alan's 1955 Hurricane AND Mr Ralph to showcase 60 of Correct Crafts.

Misc: For those trailering in boats, we have a great ramp right on site so no worries there. And indeed plenty of room for tents.

If anyone has any other questions just post them up, or call me at 704-451-5080, and oh yeah, the address in case anyone still needs it is:
140 Stepaside Lane, Mooresville, NC 28117.

See Ya!

Are the hotdogs and burgs for Friday's lunch? If so I won't be able to get them there in time.

Let me know.

Reid,

I will bring some Hot Dog and Burger Buns. I will see how many I can grab and then do a site update.

Thanks for letting us hang out at your home this weekend.

Donald
