Planning on making the trip down with the family and some friends. Anyone going to be there?
Should be passing by Sanibel bridge about 10:30-11AM.

Had a great time out with the family yesterday.
On the way down, I passed by FMB for a quick buzz. About 5 min later I see a boat colsing in behind me. Was running about 65. a few min later still there. It looked like a go fast style boat..... so I was just going aloing. Few minutes later still there. A boat I have not really seen before . I was thinking maybe he was follwing us to Keywaydin. I could noy see the drvier, he was behind on the port side....Well he finally pull up alside side the strbd side and its a 39 or???new Nor tech coast guard boat! About 6 officers on board. They must have seen the kids and the ladies in the Bikines and then finally gave a wave and dart out to off shore to buzz by some other boats.

I am sure they were checking me out for smuggling or ???

It was a sweet looking Nor-tech!!

What's up Dennis? We ran down and hung out at Lover's Key yesterday and going to be somewhere around the beach today. The Nortechs are 43s and we were coming out of the pass at Bowditch Point when they were coming in. Cool boats. Any luck selling the house?

43 Nortechs Probrably smoother ride than what we had. A tad rough out yesterday.

Still no sale on the house...Foreclosers are hurting regualer house prices. I bought my house in 2003. I have it listed for what I paid in 2003. Take about 20-40 off that list price with a real offer and realtor fees

Sorry we missed you Dennis, still a couple weeks before we are out again. I did make some progress today I moved the boat from one place in my yard to another place in my yard
I will be taking it back in to our shop tommorow. Hopefully Roger will have the motor done sometime next week. See you next time

Well believe it or not, our department has a pro-stock Crown Vic and a rail dragster. I started the program a few years ago with some other guys. Rich Christensen from Pinks started a new show called Arm Drop Live, the very first one was at Immokalee this past weekend. We did some exhibition runs with a couple other police race teams.
