    Spent an hour+ last night exploring a new area only to find weed covered shallows, creepy looking shantys, and dead heads at every halfway decent looking spot. Then hauled ass upstream to our usual island beach. Nice night but rough for much of anything besides chillin.



    My shadow - He was happy to go, but just doesn't have it in him anymore. Can only swim a little, no climbing or jumping, can barely shake the water off without falling down. Poor old guy.



    Found a smouldering fire and the boys stoked it up without too much effort.



    Not bad for a DIY led and murky river water!

    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    Where was this "new spot"? It's obvious where you ended up.

    You know where I'll probably end to tonight. my special place where "too rough" rarely happens until I'm back in the main channel heading to the dock and seeing all those stupid sailboats...

    Shane, nice work with the little guy!

    My son tried out a wakeboard for the first time on the cable when we were at TSR for the wakesurf comp. He likes telling people about his faceplants and how his mouth bled. We had to drag him off the thing when they were closing up at 10pm.

    Thanks Drew, Yeah, he will burn through half a tank a day now. He will ride until he cannot hold on to the rope any longer. He's going to force me to upgrade sooner than I wanted with all the hours we are racking up... I guess its not a bad problem to have.

    Right now its 15.5. I started him at 12 and have worked him up to 15.5 I would like to see him a little faster to clean up the wake. He keeps asking me how fast are you going and I keep telling him "around 14"

    Nice Shane. Im pulling Kira at about 19 right now, up from 15. She never said a word about the speed increase and will ride until the boat stops....then holds onto the rope while we drag her in!

    Here's some pics of my two teenagers from last weekend (sadly none of my better half since she is always on photographer duty) and me doing what I do best -- driving the boat!!

    Huh. There's most certainly spots to beach on the Island. I've actually beached there before. More towards the downstream side. It does get shallower at the tip of the island by the Port, but we had a reasonable amount of beach when we tried it.

    There was actually another boat out there surfing last night proving that I wasn't the only person nutty enough to be surfing the chop.
