There is a small stunt plane that buzzes the boats in Houseboat Cove on Clinton at least a couple of times during the season. Cool as hell. That is until it ends up in someone's cockpit! We also keep waiting for a surface to air missle to streak out the western horizon where the plant is and take it out!

Its been a few years since I was up there. (Clinton) Had a good time untill I got back to the ramps and someone had ran into my boat trailer and scratched it up... (Thanks for the invisible note w phone number whoever!) I havent been back since. However my old boat has been back up there quite a bit this past year from visiting w the new owner. (30 Conquest Enforcer w Red n Yellow Stipes) (Maybe you saw it this past year?) He says its been good times there. Maybe I will take a weekend and run up there in 2011.. besides with the new engine I am building, I will need to get away from the 40mph speed limit down here at Mill Creek for some prop selection and fine tuning.
