Yeah...you have Frank's old Cafe? I saw it there, looks good as always. If so I was thinking about rafting to you but the dock guys gave me ****. Plus some guys are sensitive about rafting to them. I asked if I could tie up to the end of the pier, they said no and 5 minutes later some other guy came in and they helped him tie up...he must have been special. So I tried to tie to the end of Crabby Jerry's and the guy had a huge attitude, told me he had a sailboat coming in and untied my line and whipped it at one of the girls on the boat. I lost all interest in being there at that point, so we left. Pretty disgusted, I've been there when it was busier than that and had no problem rafting up. I'm not the type to beg or buy my way into a place. Anyways, I'm sure they have their reasons and their favorites. Oh well.

Kevin I've only seen pictures of your boat, and we saw that purple Gun going by at a distance, just assumed it was you. Cool boat, anyway!

Sorry to get off topic in the last post, but I think I'll be wrapping my boat up soon, fall gets busy for me. Like a lot of other guys, I'd be happy to bum a ride from someone for the River Run! Sounds like a good time.
