Tuesday is the 5th :p I might have to take the day off huh? Hotels won't be a problem, just depends on when your flights are and if you need to be close to the airport.
Boat should be 20-30 min. from the airport tops. I'm not sure which location it's at right now. The water is 15 minutes from either location. You won't have any rough water to run it in though. When we get closer check in with me...I'll PM you my number if you need anything.

I will always be around for a boat ride this time of year.
What boat are you looking at? I know pretty much everyone in this area. Do you know the owners name?
If the boat is in Pertersburg your are probably going to put in at Small Boat Harbour. Really close.
Give me a ring, could meet you.

Maybe you should look at staying down in Chester which is between the airport and Petersburg. They have a great little Hooters there, and we all could hook up for some pitchers and wings? There's a few OSO'ers that live in that area...Thoughts?

That would work for me, except for one thing. It would be nice if you had a BIG Hooters there. :eek::D:drink:

Sounds great to me......

We'll have to look into transportation from the airport to Chester.... Because originally Wayne McGee was going to transport us from the airport hotel we chose to Petersburg.... Any suggestions?

Re: Flight is schedualed for Richmond, Virginia
 
If Reckless is coming up, he'll pass the airport on the way (almost). James (excursion) lives in Chester somewhere. I could go the long way around to Chester from my house and swing by the airport on the way (Mechanicsville). I saw your flight lands Tues at 1:30 and you are meeting Wayne Wed AM? When do you fly back out???

drypipetiger 03-24-2005 10:21 AM

Re: Flight is schedualed for Richmond, Virginia
 
fly out..... 10:45am thursday the 7th

drypipetiger 03-24-2005 10:24 AM

Re: Flight is schedualed for Richmond, Virginia
 
suppose to meet the surveyor in petersburg at 9:00am.. I'm sure Wayne could pick us up in Chester on his way....

Can you give me some phone numbers for hotels near Hooters? Please...

waterheater 03-24-2005 10:31 AM

Re: Flight is schedualed for Richmond, Virginia
 
My flight gets in about 3 hours earlier than Neils. Anyone suggest what to do until his fight arrives? I know, :drink:
