You went right past my house. I'm at marker 49. There is still another 15 miles of lake but it's too shallow with the lake down.

I've come to the conclusion that October in South Central Texas -- is one of the best boating months of the year. Mid-80's every weekend, fair skies, light breeze. Fantastic.

Took a 55 mile round-trip down Lake Travis this past Sunday, almost all the way to Marble Falls. Awesome.

Forecast is the same this weekend.

So, still here....still boating....all good.

Unfortunately it's that time of year here. Good time to go back to a much better place, June 2008. Not only was there a East Coast Nordic Regatta taking place the Dow was at 13,000...:rolleyes:

Hang in there Nordic Dudes and Dudette's

Hope to see everyone during boat show season

Just spent a few wonderful days in 85* calm weather on Lake Mead! Great friends, weather and boating!! Nice way to end the summer.

Now it's time for the pea shooter 496s to evacuate my bilge in favor of some 588s :evilb::evilb:

That sounds interesting.

So thought again occured to me, while running WOT yesterday late afternoon from the dam to the marina I'm slipped in -- that my GPS (and ego) are growing tired of seeing 64.3 MPH best speed. Since day #1, that's been the reliable top end.

That said, I still marvel at the reliability of these pea-shooter 496's. 250 hours and still running strong as ever.

BTW, 89 octane dropped to the bargain basement on-the-water price of $4.69 here at Travis. Dock guy said they'd be dropping the price "significantly" within the next 2 weeks. We'll see.
