Yep we'll have the boat. Really comes down to time and economics, 1800 miles at less than 6 MPG towing is a scary number at todays gas prices. You have to run slower in the MH too and it wears on you a lot more than a regular tow vehicle. If we were spending a week there it starts to work out but your upside down with just a couple night stay. |

I was hoping you were bringing the Bounder, that way you could have brought along a few of the PLBC goons. Still could work, just get them to chip in.

Larry, If we get atleast 2 more to help split up cost and drive time we'd probably do that so the offer's out there. That leaves us searching for campgrounds again but we could figure it out. |

I'm still scheming to drive out without the boat. If I can pull it together, we'd arrive Thursday just before Midnight and leave Sunday A.M.
I can't do a cookout for you guys, but I'd be more than willing to help out with driving that orange thingie y'all been talking about. |

Alan, I would consider going with you AND sharing the driving and cost if you come get me. I can leave Friday right after work but have to be back Sunday night.
I can be ready when you get here.... |

With all the delays on this project I have that coming to me, I will be sure to bring a camera man along with me this evening, hopefully they are a camera man and not a tow boat operator. |

Might want to check that alignment one more time... or is that shaking because you are nervous about what might happen in the next nano second.
Great job there Joe... |

Has anyone done any homework regarding camping nearby, there's a possibility we may bring the camper after all but not if we can't be within walking distance of the resort. |

Alan,
Ken from Adirondack Marine recommended Hearthstone Campgrounds. It's not walking distance to downtown (I'm not sure there is a campground that's walking distance to downtown)but I think it is on the water, and not far from the boat ramp at Adirondack Marine. Lake George Battleground Campground is probably the closest to downtown. -Keith |

Hearthstone appears to be completely full that weekend. Battleground seems to have plenty of availabilty. Difference my be that Hearthstone is on the lake. Don't take my word for it tho, check for yourself to make sure.

I am going to get a late start on friday, hitting the mass pike at 495 about 5 pm. Anyone one else heading west about that time? Would be fun to travel together, although I am guessing most of you will be well on your way or there by then.

I think there will be quite a queue of guys like us standing at the docks. Ballast is the term they use to describe the boatless. |

Business has been good,thanks for asking.Starting to slow down now that fall is upon us.....just in time to sneak a little break and head for the reunion .
Jeff Kostis has become a ghost around here.His boat was still in the water as of last weekend,but I haven't seen him out on the lake much.He's got himself a new lady so I'm sure he doesn't have much free time between her,work and driving for the ski team. Wish you could make it to the reunion.Maybe I'll get to Florida this winter. Mike |
