Shelbyville Illinois, July 30th to August 3rd 2014

Thank you all for the responses, and @007 for the invite. LOL, I will see if that falls on my weekend off and post here if we can come, if we can it will be me, my wife, and 2 girls, 1 is 15 and the other is 10. I think we stayed in loop A as well last summer, we were with some friends and he was able to beach his boat and leave it in the water, our camp site was rite on the lake..
 
Looks like we will be there, we will be coming down either Friday morning or early Saturday morning, then we have to head out Sunday evening, me, my wife, 2 girls 10 and 15... We were going to camp but decided to just pull the boat down.. Any suggestions on a hotel or lodging for 1 or 2 nights ???
 
Thanks for the video @007 , had the wife watch it, kinda put her at ease. Good to see the family aspect of the gathering...I hope we aren't out if place with our old LS2000. LOL... I saw some really nice yamis.. In that video:winkingthumbsup"
 
Any and all boats are welcome! Although be warned....the more you hang around other boats, the more chance you'll have 2 footitis.... :-)

Lots of social time and boating fun....wake surfing, tubing, skiing, wakeboarding, looking at mods, reading hours off engines, and of course...food and drink!
 
@Julian I am a big fan of nopaymentitis... I have been suffering with it for a year now...lol
 
Ahh!!! If she gets infected, then the disease is treatable by a visit to ones local yamaha dealer.LOL!!
 
Yeah, I try to not buy anything new , other than " toilet paper" for just that reason, I like to let someone else get the depreiationitis diagnosis!!!
 
@JC6275 I spoke to Gregory's today. If you are still in search of lodging, they have 3 Queen rooms and 7 Double rooms available during the Shelbyville Gathering.

@OperationROL , thanks I looked last night for lodging down there and saw their site, I will call them tomorrow and get it booked... thanks again.:winkingthumbsup"
 
Yeah, @JC6275 way to bring the fast 2 smokes!
I actually asked the wife if I could have another boat... she explained to me how I haven't paid off this one yet... heh... wives...
 
I had the 2 smoke last year, then caught 5footitis....
 
I had the exciter and then went to the 212ss. Miss that boat.
 
So now, we sell out Gregory's ...right? We're gonna need a bigger Mexican restaurant. At least there's a little room left at the Pizza place
 
That's if they don't try to deny us again......:confused:
