Default Vintage Dripping Springs

Here are some throw back pictures.I have no idea what year this was but I may have been in a soggy cloth diaper! I thought these were pretty funny and worth posting especialy for you guys who also grew up comming to Grand!
Same scene, just newer boats!
Makes you wonder what our kids will think of our pictures and boats in 30 years, good times!

Great Pics!

I was 9 or 10 Y.O.'s back in 1979 when my parents bought a place in Ketchum Cove. The place with two docks across the cove from the old Hammerhead on that little point. Dad had a 30' Scarab S-Type and his business partner had a 28' Cig. Those were big, FAST, boats back then.

I loved going to Drip and trying to find the 'Mooner' and the 'Stripper' boats.

Your pics remind me of some fun times.

memories, I bought my 1990 Webbcraft Equalizer at the Shangri la boat show at Easter. Spent many a summer there at Leon's Harbor Hills in Grove where my in laws lived. Lots of days at Dripping Springs among other places.
