The weekend of July 7-9 has been selected for a Green Lake outing. Nothing formal planned. Head to the shallows and have a few beverages. Probably hit the Goose at least one night for some food.
Bring on Summer!

First pictures start making a comeback -then a green lake reunion - feels like 2008 up in here. I’ll have to see if Hattie Sherwood has my spot open.

Yes Joe, Its retro week. Its all coming back..
Lakeside Inn has been renovated. Now called Green Lake suites. Green Lake inn has been redone as well. Many new BNB's, shops and even the Little Corporal is completely new serving more than just breakfast. Goose Blind is blowing the place up with a whole new floor plan and upper terrace overlooking the lake will hopefully be done by summer... Of course the campground is still up on the hill... Come on out, its always a fun weekend.. Moj' |

Nice road trip rig. I always thought it would be fun to have a 70s hippy van with something like this (the ski photo, not the horse) air brushed on the side. Of course I never do road trips so I guess that wouldnt be money well spent.   Do we know the back story on that boat? It's history is not ringing a bell, tho you may have told us before.

Vans got real expensive over the pandemic- starting to come back into reality now but a clean shorty rig like that is very hard on the wallet to get. That pick was from me picking up that boat in late October- it used to be a nice boat after a bunch of work 10 years or so ago - but ended up neglected on relatively cheap on craigslist so I picked it up as an easy towing rig to fill an empty spot on the dock after a thermal mishap last summer
    That was ten years ago  This was October |

Boat is currently far from clean - same young couple owned it that did the original restoration with the help of the mooresville crew but they had 4 kids in the last ten years and it was left in Florida with his parents who had never owned a boat before. The engine is a 273 that stopped running at some point and then the boat was left to set.
    italian characters Was able to get it running, remove most of the scum, and start to work on the moldy interior before it had to be stored for the winter. Dave - the van is a class b rv with ac, heat, bed, kitchen etc so it is my plan to full on camp it. More luxurious than my usual tent spot down by the water. |

We're booked at the Campground. I don't have anything vintage right now that floats so we'll be slumming it in the 200. Looking forward to seeing some of the old crowd again.
