    Default 4th of July

    Well I am sitting at work super bored dreaming about next week. Does anyone have any large gatherings planned on the lake for the holiday?

    gt - We are staying away from the lake on the 4th. Instead, going to D.C. for the week to take in a Cubs/Nationals game and watch firworks from the National Mall. Yup, people do their share of drinking there too, but it's still safer than being on the water on a holiday. One scare was enough. - Deerfield

    I have rented a house on the lake at Coeur d'Alene Idaho. It has a dock with 2 slips. I will be towing the Outback the 14 hours to get there. I just got the tires balanced and bought a spare just in case. We have never been to CdA, but have heard only good things about it. We'll be there for 7 days. We leave at noon on Friday and am counting the hours.

    Hey Pike, come join us. It is only 21 hours from OC.

    I actually invited a couple of other families, but they all had other plans already. It is just going to be me, my wife, my 3 daughters, and a friend for my 11 year old. The 13 year old couldn't drag any friends away either. I guess the distance and 7 days away was too much for them all. COWARDS!! We'll have a ball without them.

    We are also going to spend a day at Silverwood theme park and waterslides. Still counting down the hours........

    Me and about 10 other buddies rented a barge and were planning on going out to Lake Travis here in Austin along with my boat. We have around 50 people RSVP'd for the barge but the lake is almost 20' over with all the crazy rain! So far the lakes are still closed and we are just hoping they open before the 4th. The past 2 years we had no water and now way too much!
