WOW!! What a great weekend!!!! It was great seeing everyone and meeting some new folks... We landed back in Wisconsin around 10pm at night on Monday.... We even pulled off around Toledo and napped for an hour... Taking Tuesday off was the best thing we did... Cant wait and do it again!

Nice meeting a few of you this weekend! How about that gale Saturday night?! We were able to get things buttoned up in the nick of time! Saw a few biminis and cockpit enclousures bite the dust at Portside.

Had a fun ride to the ramp yesterday evening

At least they are home safely.

Thanks for that update. I was worried about them!

Portside was packed! Did you guys have any issues with the showers or anything?

Just pulled in. 14 1/2 hours. 6 hours of rain and 8 1/2 hours of car problems but it was worth all 2200 miles. It was great meeting glassdave, skramer, seeing queenie, full force, ronnie, a couple 41 apaches, variety of cigs, and a lot of great other hardware. I even woke up in sandusky which im still hazy as to how i got their considering i was waiting for pat dailey to come on. Oh, and thanks Jbonz for a sucessful fourth annual. It was a blast as always. The 5th will be here before you know it. Ill post some pics later.

We must have been out on a boat ride! My mom and step-dad came up for the day. He has never been a fan on "those damn loud boats" but I convinced him to come for a ride... He ended up taking the wheel to try it out near Catawba island and was grinning the whole way back to Kelleys.

The wife said the showers were fine; I just jumped off the south wall and did it the old fashioned way.

Sorry we missed you, maybe we'll catch up next time!
