Lake Clinton, IL Reunion

don't know for sure since we haven't been back since the reunion
but I think they shut down the area north of the bridge for waterfowl migration purposes around the 10th of Oct

if you go, I would be interested to know what the water temps are

Just been crazy busy at work......But these days i'm not complaining at all!! Hey joe we need to do the key west thing again ya know...

No bling here. I was just making sure my Christmas lights worked before they go on the big tree in my front yard in another couple of months! Putting them on the boat is a lot easier (and warmer)!

Anyone making any more trips to Clinton this year? I think the warm water area north of the bridge gets shut down to boats in 2 weeks. I bought oil, filter and RV/boat antifreeze today, getting ready for the inevitable.

Yeah, when I had my trailer made (Mike and I have the same brand trailer) the guy asked if I wanted those. I wanted them bad, but I had to draw the line somewhere. Mike's trailer looks SWEET rollin' down the road. Love the 18" wheels!

Believe me, I am looking for the next option to put on it.

Tim did some real cool lighting on the boat. When Mike saw that he started getting some ideas for next year. I think I heard something about a lazer light show on the orange air. Tim, I think we are going to have to step up our game plan!!

Boat looked great with the wrap around lights!

How about a little lake Clinton Night life!




Todd didn't bring the revolving disco ball this year so that opened the door for Tim and Pam to take center stage

I've been out of town for the last 10 days and I didn't have time to make changes before I had to leave, but I didn't like the size of the images or quality of the pics that I posted from Lake Clinton 09. So here's some hopefully better ones.

My cell doesn't work at the lake give me a call before friday and we will make arrangements to meet. I will be staying at the campground again. Most likely in the A section site 42 if possible. 219-712-5060

We might have had the help of a few rollers there Mark but it did run the best it has all summer. Been a long road of tweaking but it's finally behaving.

Mark, read it like this.

I will move the rope to the rear pylon next. We keep talking about the fun we had. I think I will go back this weekend air in the 70s and water in the 90s it should work out. We have room if anybody wants to join us.

65' off ?!? That's a world record! Unless you were using a 100' rope or something....I think this is a typo?

I've always wondered how the slalom wake is behind a 210 with all the unecessary weight out of it compared to the "2001" series. Anybody tried both?

Looks like a great place for a fall get together with those warm temps.

RJ and Nicole - Great pics!! Thanks for posting on the site and on Snapfish. Thanks also for the cleaner. Now if I could only get Mike H to come over and clean my boat as well as he takes care of his, I would be set! Nice to meet you guys!

Alan, Dana, Todd, Renee - as always it was great to see you again. Sorry we haven't been able to make all of the Clinton trips this year, but I am glad this one worked out. What a great weekend all around! Thanks for tolerating the girls - jumping off your platform, dunking and splashing Dana, playing with Bodie, etc, etc, etc.

Evans family, Chris & Maddie - It was great to meet you all. I am glad the kids had such a great time together! It makes it so much more enjoyable and relaxing when the kids have such a good time too.

It was good to meet all of the other folks as well. I hope everyone had a safe trip back home.

Sounds like a great time.

Alan, I'm hoping we're going to see you this weekend. Does your Hurricane have one of those old fashion syphon bilge pumps?
