We were on the lake last weekend and it was beautiful. Water was still pretty chilly at 66 degrees but boating was awesome. Water west of the islands around Buncombe Creek was pretty murky and dirty from all the rains but never the less a great day to be on the water. Cheers

Man its gonna take forever before the 27th of july gets here

We were out on Saturday on the Sea Ray once it quit raining. We went towards Preston Point and dropped the hook out in front of Island view. We swung on the hook in the wind till it finally laid down. It was a beautiful day! We saw what I think was an AR190 come down towards us and stopped to drift in the wind a bit and headed back the direction they came into the wind. I don't know if it was anyone on here or not.

So, yea, I'm only 3 months late to this thread!
Dana and I will be there.
And, pretty much every week end between now and October. Ha!

 

[PEARCE]

I assume you put in at Highport. Stop over at U dock and give a shout out if you do. We face V dock 3rd from the end.

 

[JTPain]

@PEARCE
We are on "V" dock. Right in the middle facing "W" dock.
I come over to chat with Brad and Carrie every now and then.

 

[PEARCE]

Well damn! I bet we've met before then.

 

[JTPain]

Yes sir we have. I'll shout at ya this weekend

 

[PEARCE]

@JTPain better make it next weekend. Daughter has drill team spring show Saturday night. Plan to be up next weekend unless the weather turns to crap.

 

[Jebinok]

Well crap at this rate the lake will be a mess come meetin time. But it wont stop me. We"ll be there.

I'll keep tabs on this, but we'll have to catch a ride with someone if we come. Mines in my lake on my lift and I'd have to go through quarantine if I put it in Texoma.

@Cory I'll ferry yall no worries my friend.

@farrelltravis and @PEARCE and @DCB-270 ok guys give us all an update on the lake conditions, and your opinion on the conditions for the gathering.

 

[PEARCE]

Well @Jebinok it should be fine by the end of July if the beaches don't wash away. There are no beaches on Treasure and very little on Wood. You only see the trees on Hog. What I'm worried about is the glass I saw on Treasure on the beach a few weeks ago is now under water and being buried or washed to who knows where in the floodwaters.

Unfortunately we're not gonna make the gathering this year. We've had something come up that will keep us from the lake that weekend. We'll be there most of the other weekends through the summer so we can catch up with y'all then.

 

[ApelilaRains]

The islands are pretty much under water this past weekend. There's a small peak of sand but you can still anchor, just not much space for us to run around on, or the kids for that matter. I recommend we assess as we get closer to the date. I'll be there several more times before that date and to give some feedback.

 

[Jebinok]

@PEARCE not being able to attend? This is disturbing news. It wont be the same with out you there. (I sure it will be better).
@ApelilaRains thanks for the input, come hell or high water we will be there.
