We could not have dreamed of having better weather. Mid 70's in IL in October was sensational.
River Rat, looking through my pictures would have me remind you that you can smile occasionally. You have a beautiful little family and you're a Packers fan.
Shane, I am glad you found the right boat to hang out on. Your daughter seemed to find a new friend. Hopefully your wife can make it next time.
Thanks, Jetboater family, for another memorable trip!

I had a great time on this trip. Looking forward to next year and bring @mattschepker along for the ride.
@buckbuck we tried to snap a picture of you but we were too far away with a camera phone.

28 gallons on the way down. Looked to be about the same on the way back up. I also had a 5 gallon can stashed in the ski locker just in case. I was watching the fuel gauge pretty nervously the last half hour on the way down.

That's not too bad really. I put 5 gallons and had an 1/8 left on a 50 gallon.
