I respect your opinion as you live down there. That being said I am putting in at Henry and running down. You have lots of water to run down there. Great for letting her stretch her legs. Also I like to stop at all the favorite hang outs along the way. If you see the Velocity wave me in. Look forward to meeting some of you. I can't wait.

Plan on being at EP Marina hopefully around 11 or sooner. What time you and your crew coming down?
Got to be honest.... I still got the heads off the motor getting the cooling system in check. Everything is in order to go back together but I won't be able to get it fired up till tomorrow AM at the ramp. Got to fix that and pick up my new pistol tonight!

Yeah that was me. Momma, Lil Man and I went down to the dam after we swam & had lunch @ the beach. Water was getting a little too rough for all of us. When I usually boat in Peoria it's more calm so we don't get beat up too bad. Thanks for the compliment on the Alli, she's a peach for 19 years old!
Did you see the two boats loaded up with kids & no life jackets?!?!?! One 32-26' Bayliner Cuddy & a SeaRay 280.... bout 6-8 kids under the age of 10 I'd say... all on the bow, standing, with no jackets on.... makes me want to slap the $hit out of people...

Oh, I saw lots of amazing things this weekend, lol. There must have been 2 dozen boats just motor through the no wake zone down town. I don't know how people can be that illiterate or inconsiderate. I'm just glad the weather didn't get worse Saturday with everyone at the beach. Sunday was the first time we had left the marina since my heart surgery...sure felt good.
