We only want the "undesirable" snowbirds to leave.
Glad I am not one of those "undesirable" snowbirds Jim. Sorry I did not make contact with you. Got busy going to the gym everyday and friends coming down it simply skip my mine. I will make it a point in October for sure.

Yes, I don't have a trailer and I had a hard time finding one, so I found a place that I didn't need one, they just lifted it out with their forklift and threw in a new coupler, they didn't clip me to bad, but it was super easy just idling the boat there and letting them mess with it, took it in on a Monday, got it back before the weekend, can't beat that.

Wayne, who is in FMO is the mechanic who did the work, he did a great job.

I wanted to spend my 50th on the beach so I just had to deal with whatever the crowds were going to be. It will be much less crowded in Panama City Beach when we head there in 3 weeks for our annual spring trip. Been going there since '79.

I imagine I will go back. We had too damn good a time not to return. I mean, dinner at Petey's Upper Deck watching the boats in the intercoastal followed by a ZZ Top concert next door under the bridge! Well, almost ZZ Top! Lol! Some people were convinced it was really them, They were pretty good and damn near wore their crew out fetching them beers the entire set.

Hope your puppy is feeling better.

My uncle always says: "Florida is a sunny place for shady people" and whenever he feels like he got a high price on anything he loves to say, Florida guys are always trying to rip you off.......Well he remodeled his house up north a few summers back and got a whole tool box (stacked craftsman style) and a couple sets of golf clubs stolen out of the basement.......My response: What, that can't happen with all those "good guys from up north"......did you hire a Florida guy for the remodel?......He laughed but never made another comment about the Florida guys again.

I usually say, guess where these crooks came from: UP NORTH. They already burned everyone in their town so they relocate to Florida for a new batch of scams.

Snapped a couple pics off the front walkway in the intercostal. Agles' Spectre and is this Bob's CC or one similar?

Rowdy is almost done with her meds (it's gross, but she was pooping blood, not good) and she's much better, thanks, we may be able to get out on the boat this weekend,

No it's not Bob's boat, his is a Renegade, the first boat looks like a Concept, but it's very similar and yes, that's Agles Spectre, good looking boat even from your upper floor room at the P-Shell.

Glad you had fun, that faux ZZ top guys look good, looks like they were playying over by Nervous Nellie's, hope you get down again, maybe go on a FMO run.
