Fall cruise on the Mississippi river Alton pool

[sstegh]

Let's go for a ride on te Mississippi and Illinois rivers before before the boats are put to bed for the winter. So far we've got @sstegh, @jaybro72, @jcyamaharider, @sx210owner, @mattschepker, and @Daniel.

I was thinking of doing the same trip as the spring cruise, to the restaurant in Hardin, Ill. Any other suggestions? We need to pick a date too.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Yep, that is a nice relaxing trip. Some time in October 11, 18, or the 25 is all good.

 

[mattschepker]

Oct 11, 18 and the 25 is all good for us as well. Not looking foward to the end of boating season.
@RampRage do you think you'll be able to make it.

 

[Daniel]

I opt for the 25th but don't let that hold all of you from a different day

 

[RampRage]

Work is picking up in October I will let you know if I can make it

 

[sstegh]

11th, 18th, and 25th all work for me too. How about we shoot for the 11th with the option of the 18th if weather becomes a factor.

 

[jcyamaharider]

I am in!!

 

[ar240owner]

I can't do the 11

 

[mattschepker]

is the 18th good for everyone?

 

[sstegh]

Yes, the 18th is still good for us.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Yep

 

[ar240owner]

Yep

 

[jaybro72]

where have I been. im in!!!!!!!!!

 

[sstegh]

Great! We're headed out to the Mississippi / Illinois now.

 

[mattschepker]

@sstegh, how was the river today?

 

[sstegh]

Full of a lot of crap and really cold, so I didn't get in. It was a nice cruise though. Since no one wanted to get in the water we went to dinner in Hardin. fyi, there is a hole in their dock that your entire leg can fit into if you don't see it... Now I'm on the couch icing my knee. Really swollen.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Holy Crap!!! Yeah we seen the hole last weekend and I almost did the same thing.

Ouch! Heal fast man!

 

[ar240owner's Wife]

Ouch no good. Was that Mel's? If so, watch out, cause there are 2 of those holes!

 

[jcyamaharider]

This is coming up quick!!! If it is half way warm we are filling up to surf if anyone is interested....
