yessir, dad and I have a cabin

good to see you're making it Kostas, fancy a barefoot run? haha, adding another to the cult!

So I had a chat with Reid the other day and he said a couple of regular SJRR attendees who aren't regular bloggers were coming.....Looking like a pretty good turnout for a weeklong River Ruckus!

Again....I will bring enough charcoal for the grill for both Saturday night cookouts so bring something you can throw on and maybe a bag of chips, who knows maybe we can throw some foil wrapped taters on the grill or even get Buck and Kats to provide a Vege of some sorts if we let Laurie know ahead of time... Pipe up, shoot me message, or pick up the phone to let me know what y'all think?.... 18 days and counting.....Warm up the water Fla Boys cause it's River Run time!

You've got 18 days!

Okay so here is the latest and greatest. I talked to Art yesterday for a bit to give him the low down on what's going on with this Part I & Part II bit.... He said that he really wants to attend and get the 61 out of hibernation so that she's running good for The Masters in May. He tentatively plans on bring it up for Part 1 so she can shake loose the cob webs. This should give those that are there an opportunity to ride, drive and possibly ski behind the Flagship SN....

He also contacted Les via Email about River Ruckus and possibly coming over to his place to take him up on his offer to use the course which Les said sure thing come on over so add that to the list of things to do. ....17 days till Ski Season Kick Off for us non Floridians!

Hmmm, who's Les and what lake is it? Ah doesn't matter, anytime on the course to learn something, be criticized and really to learn from watching others is good for me. Keep me posted.

Tim - what day are you wanting to visit the Todd compound?

Dad and I might be able to sneak one more day in but worst case it looks like we'll fly out the 24th. We'll have to take the RV and boat their respective storage spots on the 23rd. Visiting them that day might work out well if they're closer to Orlando.

No training? Well that rules this turd out. If he's a fern farmer then surely he's in Pierson, 15-20 min opposite of Orlando.

They both usually hang out with us for the weekend as time allows as they both are and have been Correct Craft peeps.

And if I can to that----"two of the nicest people you could possibly meet!!!" they sure helped us out the last time we were there and had lost key incident!

Update:   I just got off the phone with Les to let him know that there indeed was a River Ruckus this year and that we would like to take him up on his offer to use the course on his lake. He said, "Yep, no problem just let me know when you're coming!" Give me aheads up so that I can be there to hang with you guys, show you how to drive the course and pull you if need me too." Mentioned that we could use the boat that's there, ( a 200 perhaps?) or drop one of our own in. Stay as long as we wished and use whatever we wished as he knows its in safe hands. ( Adam is not included in this deal) Told him roughly a dozen or so CCFans want to hang out at his place and all he said was "Come on.....lets ski!"

He and Cindy are looking forward to our arrival so all is good and that we could use it both weekends. He also said that the weather was starting to warm up a bit down there so lets hope this trend continues. Should be a fabulous time!

Why are you thanking him Adam? Sounds like you were excluded!

You sure about that? I know you can mess 'em up along side them, but you think behind is OK?

No lee street house this time? Wish i could be there! Have fun guys!

Seeing as how we haven't had too much feedback from those attending this years RR, I say we just wing it. As previously mentioned I'm bringing charcoal for the big grill at the campground so you can bring your own or we can throw some chicken hind qtrs. on the grill and maybe some aluminum wrapped taters. Grocery store cole slaw and call it good. If taters are too much trouble then Tater chips. With the small amount of attendees showing up I could be persuaded to bring the smoker down and do smoked chicken. I'm pretty much game for anything at this point.....2 weeks and counting til Part 1.

Tim - what time are you departing on the 20th?

Guessing we'll stay just outside of Atlanta, maybe try and get thru to the south side on the night of the 19th. We'll get up early the 20th and get rolling again but thought maybe we could catch ya and caravan down.

Doesn't look like Jackie Deen is too far off there so maybe meet up in Macon if everything works out?
