Trip: Going to Richmond, Va to tow home "Hyper Active"

Poker Run: Cumberland, Kentucky Lake, Knoxville, Haulin on Old Hickory (Just had a lot of fun this year were ever I ran the new toy)

Screw up: First time I took out the AT, It was gusting to 30 and I rubbed the side of the boat on the dock! Spent the next day fixing my screw up and you can't really see it any more.

Plans: Going threw the drives this winter and then being bored of my a#$ until next season.

Boatfreak: Tried to cutch up with you at Cumberland but every time I went by the Houseboat, you were gone. Yelled at you at party cove. Try to come to Kentucky Lake.

Greatest memories, a ton of them all involving hangovers, but Sarasota, St Pete, Fort Myers run and meeting OCD was great.

Worst screw up selling my Active Thunder!! (my divorce is a close second)

Plans for next year buying another boat.

Hope everyone is doing well Aaron.

OK I went boating today. Slick calm in LA, about 75 deg. Just got my labbed props back from BBlades and went to try them. 91.5 at 5500 rpm my AT brothers!

Checked the timing, adjusted a throttle cable on my stbd motor, tested some other props, bought 100 gal gas for $245 ON THE WATER, drank some beer at Bennigan's, cleaned the boat, swept bugs and dead rats (eat the green pellets and die you sorry bastards) out of my boat shed, put the boat up (full of gas) and back at the hacienda for more beer. Ga Tech beat Fla State for the first time in 12 years. Overall a good day.

Hurricanes are sobering m***** f******. Hope all is well with my OSO buds in Houston/Clear Lake/Galveston. Ike put 2 feet higher water in flood prone areas of Lake Charles than a direct hit with Rita. WTF.

I have 2 Kids in college so I will not be at KW but someone post some pics.
