Anderson on the way out
 

Here's one of our Hosts:
Jay and Jeanette Anderson and Company. Lotsa company. Too bad the only real boater in this group is my girlfiriend Angela.
Only Kidding Jay really it was terriffic and many thaks for all your support and prayers. They worked. Now all you'll have to do is figure out how to keep my hands of the new boat.
Just in case none of you know this was the last trip in the "old boat" the new one is trips.
Some Guys.......

Congrats Rob, I'm so glad everything went well. Wishing for the best.

Bobby

Im sure the Rice will help. Now you can spend some time on the design of the new Rice Hauler. If you get down we can show you the west coast of FL. Best Wishes.

More, You asked for more.....
 

Here's the Anderson Party Barge again.
They had a really smokin crew. But like I said before the only real boater was Angela. With Jay close behind.
Let me tell you all this boat rocks too. Twin Sterling 875's and #6's. It gets with the program real quick. Even with all those big boys in there for ballast.

now let's get to the real boaters
 

Now,
This is our boat and Crew. Notice the matching apparel and the looks of stern determination. We are reading the coming seas and preparing to face whatever mother nature has to offer. Someone pass the Grey Poupon please.
That's Tony on the left, Michelle and Kent Hageman in the middle and Mona riding shotgun.
Funny thing is that it turned out to be the last run for this boat too. The new one is Trips......

Glad you made it!!! Now get a boat!

Why are these people smiling?
 

Believe me you would be too.
If one of your best friends had just turned over the Throttles of his 42 Tiger and said "Rob, get us to Hawks Cay quick. Before everyone else catches us" but Seriously folks. Yes, It was great taking that thing from the Tiki Bar to Hawks Cay, with Parnell, Brandon, Ed, Chet, and others all in tow. But the real gas was the ride home. To all that shared the day I toast you. To all the rest, Well you just had to have been there.

The Money Shot
 

Here's the Money Shot.
Taken right before we blow a drive at Gilberts and Mondazze Buys a new boat instead of just fixing the drive. (Big ups to Greek Lightining for picking us up.)
The last words that my Surgeons Nurse practitioner said to me before I left on this weekend was. "Rob. it's better to look good than feel good"
I don't know but I'd say that I was following her advice.
Best to all.
Rob..
P.S. Tony I want you to know that this was one of the last pics that I looked at before I went to surgery. Thanks for all your support and kindness you're a true friend.
Rob..
