Gonna be cool to see all the out-of-towners. Try not to blow me away! We need to stop in the pits or the canal and tie up. I need to see ur ride!

I am really excited for this run! I have not been boating much this year! Anyway, keep an eye out for us and give me any directions that would keep us safe!

I've seen that dam that runs down the center of the river going to TGI Fridays. We went way north one time to get around it. Then we discovered the narrow channel that leads right to TGIs. Man that thing was a washing machine after two boats went ahead of us.

May not make it there by 9. LOL
pull up a map search, google, yahoo, ect. and zooming in you can see the lateral. Directly across from casino marina is two red nav markers and a lighted rock pile, the cut through is between the marker and pile. otherwise launch and return to casino and me or someone will be there to go out as group.

I'll be getting there by 9. By the time I launch, park truck, and ready to roll, it will be closer to 9:30-9:45. I just want to make it to Captains Table with plenty of time to register, because I won't be there Friday night.

I'll look for some people, if I don't see any one I'm sure I'll find my way.

Look for us in the Sunsation.

forgot you have to be specail to post pics on here. Link instead - http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...type=1&theater
