Hammer, we are actually between 2 small towns, Killian and Springfield, Louisiana on the Tickfaw River. As the crow flies, about 45 or so miles from New Orleans. And, it IS a great time. Charlie throws his Mardi Gras parade and the Tickfaw 200 PR each year and they are both a kick in the azz!

BTW, Randy's already trying to set me up to buy the white twin step!!:D

I had seen that online but didn't know were it was and I had a parade to work at in Jeff Parish. Good weather those final days I was down there working

Nice, a buddy of mine is in Orange Beach and we have been trying to set up a trip to do some boating into the New Orleans area by water. That looks like a lot of fun. Do you guys do runs year round and how often??? Randy's new boat looks great as well, you could not go wrong and it run's like a striped ape from what I have heard. I still like all the amenities and the Lip-Ship version of the 99 as well though. I am sure two totally different rides.

Not necessarily runs going year round but it seems like it's always something. This past Saturday, it was 72 degrees so we crossed Lake Maurepas to another of the local tributaries, Blind River, and had a few cocktails at Pier 13 (nice local waterfront bar & rest).

We actually have a pretty good contingent that usually travels over from Orange Beach/Gulf Shores for the PR in May. Trail Marine used to bring 4 or 5 Fountains every year. Got another group of good friends of ours that travel down from the Montgomery, Alabama area. You should try to make it sometime. Always a good time as the sig line says!!

Randy's got his hands full on the next sale. The boss wants a 40ss Formula. I, on the other hand, want to move into a TS Gun or Tiger. There is actually a 2006 39 TG UL w/525s owned by one of the partners of Bang & Olufsen Audio that is painted almost indetical to my '99. Boats look like twins. Told Phil to keep an eye on it for me!!:evilb:

You guys decide to fly down, let me know ahead of time. There's several OSOers that live down here. We'll see to it that you have a good time!!:evilb::evilb:
