OK after all of this talk about this special person I need pictures!
Z- I hope you work on Mrs. Z for Tampa. I'm really looking forward to meeting you. Of course, I'll probably make my way over to your water some time anyway.
I might be down for the surf session Fri. night (before the bonfire).
Kane,
Yes come over and visit us sometime on Deerpoint! Our boat is back in the water and this weekend we will be out early burning up some gas pulling several kids on the kneeboards, a couple of hours more on the new engine and we will be pulling everyone on skis and wakeboards.
Friday night I will be sitting in the parking lot at my place of work. We are literally on the bay, it is about 50ft from my office to the water and we will be watching the fireworks from there. I believe the barge they launch them from will be about 200 yards away!!!
OK I am working on Ms. Z!!!!! What would help would be a couple of kids wanting to go also, what can I tell them to look forward too? I am thinking about bringing a couple of Kayaks too? Would there be a secure place to stow all of these boats and equipment during the night or would I have to worry about it in a hotel parking lot?
Well, I'm not getting on the road this weekend although I'd love to come for fireworks. We'll do it some time a little later on.
With respect to Tampa, Stacy may have some advice for where to leave equipment. I'd say park at my Dad's but he's got his 22 ft. jet boat, his catamaran and he'll have my rig. He doesn't have that much room and he's in about the worst neighborhood in Clearwater.
How old are the kids? I'll be sure to post pics from Atlanta with mine-- I've got about every age you can think of. What ages do you have and M or F?
We have 2 kids, an 8 year old girl and a 11 year old boy. Both love the water! Oh and of course the boat!
Z your more than welcome to park your boat in my driveway and stash the kayaks in the side yard(its fenced) saturday night. one thing i stopped by land o lakes marine 2 days ago to talk to them about the tampa jamboree and got suprised with some news--instead of lake tapon they want to hold it on lake padget in land o lakes,-the dealer has a off site storage lot on the lake with parking for about 50 trucks and trailers with a private ramp. Hungry Harrys to do the catering-its a local bbq joint(very good). I live less than 5 minutes away, and there are some hotels about 10-15 minutes away. If this helps you.
also ive got a daughter 9 yrs old-she likes to make new friends
stacy
Pat--this offer also applies to you also-----see ya in a week and a day
I hope to leave at 8 am so I should be in Tifton at 9:30 or so. Why don't you PM me your cell and I'll do the same? Never hurts to have somebody you know going the same way at about the same time anyway.
Stacy- I may just take you up on that offer. What about Fri. night? I may want to head down on Fri. night and spend my birthday with my Dad in Clearwater. You are a heckuva lot closer than his place and (not to sound like Z but) I hate driving out to Clearwater towing a boat in Fri. night traffic.
Z- I've got twin 8 y/o boys and a girl turning 10 on 7/8.
Pat, friday night is no problem
