Thanks to Reid and Laurie and all who helped make it happen. Had a blast. It was great to see some of my up north buds and to finally meet many of the southern contingent. |

Reid, thanks again for your hospitality. The whole family had a great time hanging with you and the the other CCFans in your little slice of heaven. With the rain last night and this morning, we did not make it back
I met so many people I can't keep them all straight, but special thanks to the Steve, Steve, Jackie, Adam and Val for pulls and Air Chair lessons, and Morfoot for the pull and chance to ride his Burner, and to Curt for being observer for the little ones. John, my kids really enjoyed hanging out with your kids; they definitely wanted to go back, rain or no. Fun times. We will have to host a Mini (and I mean mini, we definitely do not have 20 boat parking) at our place some time soon. |

Great Time!
Terrific meeting everyone and their rides. Val & I counted over 18 boats wet...with more available! Special Shout-outs to: Foot-Fungus, Iaughtnot, Swatkins, Jmurph, Wayne(Dwouncmd) and Gail (Mrs. NautiqueHunter)...Great Air Chair students: The force is strong within you! Swatkins, Gail and Foot-Fungus for footin' on Charlotte's Inland Sea. Val and I were disappointed to leave tonight but we were soooo glad that we were able to come, play and share our love for these boats, each other and towed water sports! Time to go to bed and apply aloe to my face for my sunscreen failure..... Steve |

Had a blast meeting and hanging out with everyone. Made me and the wife feel right at home! Special thanks to Reid for putting this on. Wanted to stay later but our dogs are worse than teenagers if we leave them in the house along for more than 8 hours...

Donald,
You know how the Skylark works and cranks--- It's just like a Muscle Car sometimes-- you have to really pump on that gas to get her all revved up:) Make sure Steve Karras is alright with it-- Tell him not to Baby it . Even though she's 46 years old- she still likes it rough I didn't put but 8 gallons of gas in it- So keep an eye on that till I get back down there around 4 pm-ish. Gotta throw my Dad his 80th BDay Party, then we'll be down. Get some pics of the CCFans in her- remind Steve to get pics too! Play pretty today and see ya later. |

Gary, Yes, Marty's Boat and Trailer were here, but Marty had to go home early. We posted armed guards on the guides all night. The Pope Family (d*ck Sr, and d*ck Jr.) were calling all night asking for their Cyprus Gardens Guides Back. They have my number since my boat was purchased from their exculsive family collection. Wish you were here. Getting ready to head back over in a minute. Donald |

I'm sick, hacking up the green stuff. I called Reid yesterday and told him I wasn't coming, I don't know if he could understand the message since it sounds like I've got a frog in my throat. My freaking luck.

That boats 40 years old...holy crap. Never thought about that until you just said it Adam. Well now that its almost 4am and we figured out we need to put a new keyswitch in my new 72skier. I'm going to bed. Should be 2-3 hours from now that we hear the first boat fire up from the dock. You're all a bunch of sick individuals

it takes a special kind of sickness to think its a good idea after driving 7, 8, 10, or even 15 hours to break out a voltmeter and some flashlights at 3am and start tinkering with the electrical system on a 40 year old boat...and yet somehow there were 6 of us there...get in where you fit in I guess

Hey guys......just to add what Donald has already added. Things area going great up here at Reid's. Not a whole lot of skiing going on today as most of the day was spent just hanging out with CCFans. Trip to the BBC to bring back a few boats to play in this weekend, stopping by Ray City Marine to check a few things and get a chance to climb all over a G-23, then off to advance auto for a new battery for 'Miss Scarlett '. She needed to be jumped started when Mike, Gail, Reid and I went across the lake for breakfast. So didnt get out n the water til almost 4. Not a whole lot of skiing just yet as as we were shuffling boats round etc. Did get Eric Svensons new old boat 'Ole Raunchy' in the water but had to tinker with it a bit to get it running rite. Tomorrow's activities will be for favorable for pics....don't u worry.

I just got back home from Reid's. I live a short boat ride across the lake from his home.
My daughter ( Natalie 11) and I arrived about 6:30 PM. She loved playing dock ball with Boatie, Skipper, Winston and Emile ( All Dogs). Shortly after I arrived, Steve W. and Steve K, Gail H and Vale K. had just gotten back from Footing and Air Chairing. Steve W. rode the chair for the first time. They shared some great cell phone video of them footing off of the boom of Steve W's boat. As I was leaving tonight at about 9:30, the crew of ten were heading out for Dinner. They were headed to a nearby watering hole of Reid's. It was time to get my little girl home so we took the short boat ride back across Lake Norman. Folks had been hanging out on the dock and enjoying each other's company. A great time was had among friends. Tommorrow should be a blast. The weather is great and temps will be in the mid 80's. Sunday will be cooler with highs in the upper 60's. The lake is still warm enough to have fun. Thanks to Reid, Laurie, Boatie, and Skipper for being such great hosts. Donald |

Since Tim (Morfoot) has apparently arrived way early with his great camera, about time we started seeing some photos, eh?
Any further talk about a Lanier thing next week? |

by my count
Jmurph, +4 Tim Tim Tim Mike and Gail Matt and Lynette Eric Adam Jackie Don Marty +2 Joe+1 Steve Karras+1 (air206) Steve Watkins+? John Huff (foot fungus) Larry? Kytom Wayne (dwouncmd)+ a few? Then the locals Reid John? Jerry? Curtis? Eddie? Certainly we can all fit on reids dock at once, but we are probably going to need to take more than one boat out. Boat and car are packed and pointing in right direction out of the parking lot at work, a half day of work and 714 miles and Ill see ya there. |
