Air & Water Show this weekend in Chicago
Looks like the best weather will be tomorrow ( friday ) with it being full sun and mid 70's. I'll be out there tomorrow / friday with some other trouble-makers   to watch the practice runs that the show does all day.
Anybody else gonna be out ?

Jamie- I know you are a big-dog Cig guy now...but did you guys check the marine forecast? Last time I looked they were calling for 4-6s...fun to run in, maybe, but I wouldn't want to drop a hook in that!
On the other hand, if you ARE going out, PM me and let me know when...Michelle and I could find our way down to Diversey for a ride!

I am looking at going Friday, but I am working shift. If I get coverage then I am going to head there.
Saturday and Sunday look shot.

Yeah, I've checked it. We'll see. If nothing else, there will be a party in Diversey since we have slips

Just got back from bringing mine and LA-Zdunck's boats to Jackson. Got slips till sunday there. We figure if the water is too rough, just as well hang in the harbor and drink ourselves silly. They were calling for 4-7FT tonite. Didnt seem too rough at all, however there were some nice swells to jump.

We were out in those swells this evening. Man, was that a blast. You don't get swells like that too often on lake Michigan, so when you do, you just have to take advantage of them. Usually it's a 3-4 ft chop instead of 3-4 ft swells. Hope it's like that tomorrow too.

Geez...get up this morning and the forecast has totally changed! Looks like it might still be a decent weekend!
Think I'm going the other way, though. Boaters Beach for us.
