@OperationROL, We have booked Cabin 1 at Wolf Creek Lodge arriving Thursday night and departing Sunday morning.

Is there an agenda for the event? When is the pot luck meal?

Any suggestions as to where we should launch to find you guys?

FYI - you all should make sure to seek a cool, refreshing place, and consider drinking plenty of fluids

[buckbuck]

Bruce, glad to hear you and your family are coming. PM me if you want to drive and launch right at the raft up. We usually launch at Lithia during the week and launch at the cove on the last day because it puts us closer to home.
Amy, we are so sorry to hear about your misfortune. Please keep us posted as how insurance and fiberglass repairs play out.
Very shiney, 007. Wish I had time to show off.

 

[OperationROL]

Everyone-

I will be resending updated agenda and attendee list tonight!

 

[007]

You could order it from jetboatpilot.com and have it shipped to the Lithia.

Arrived about 3, checked on Amy and Sue. Launched boat, twisted Renee's @MutherTucker arm and made her go out with us. The lake was crazy flat, so of course we had to surf, it was Renee's fault, that's my story anyway.

After all the mods and associated UPS boxes at our house the past 12 months, I am quite sure there would be a "domestic disturbance" if I bought some boat sh!t and had it direct shipped to Lithia! LOL
