I also plan to go to Jammin on the James this year.

Don't think I am going to feel comfortable enough yet to run over to harborfest. I'll see about cruising over to Jammin' on the James. I have no doubt we'll meet up sooner rather than later - I am sure all the Southside Cig owner's are great guys and can't wait to meet everyone.

Tolls were narrow - that's for sure. Luckily we used my Fiance's EZ-Pass from work so hopefully noone notices

It took a few hundred miles, and a couple stops in and around rest areas for me to feel comfortable with the rig but after a while I got pretty comfortable towing it. I can see, from a stability standpoint, why people say you should have a dually though. I bet it would have beem a handful with SRW.

Funny you said "Addiction" - that is the current name of the boat.

We're changing it to "Wanna Drag?". I know it is bad luck but screw superstition.

Toys first - adequate living arrangements later.
