Hey All

What a group. BIG thanks to Ken and Don for putting this one together. I just never knew all those fisher guys (and gals) could be so much fun. Great time, met some new friends, and made it home just fine.
Special thanks to:
Don and Lisa for taking us down the back trail :thup :thup even though the chart said we were on land, the sounder disagreed and I never heard any brush scraping the barnacles off the bottom.
Ken and Marge for bringing the hali pieces. MMMmmm good.
Rob, for catching me at the dock. That is always the scary part. (By the way, we missed you the rest of the day. Sure hope the fishing was great.)
Teddy (and CJohnF) for the Dog and Daddy show.
Larry and Cathy for taking me on the guided tour around Puget island and washing my boat :wink:
John and Amy for getting some good pix of my boat, and the river trip. Looking forward to seeing them here on the site. And John for thinking of beating the rush. (Great idea, and it was a beautiful drive home.)
AND Everyone, for bringing such good food, for the great company, and especially for the nice send off. You all are great.
The drive home was pretty uneventful. I didn't loose any keys, or anything. One stop for a Dr Pepper in Longview, and then a fuel stop, Dr Pepper recharge at the Pilot Station just south of Olympia where they were having a law enforcement convention. 4 SP, 2 Sheriff, and a local PD. I felt really safe leaving the boat parked out at the pump while I went in and looked for a cheap $5 CD for the trip home. Sooooo... Me and Freddy (Fender) sang all the way home. It was a beautiful drive, no traffic and a big bright nearly full moon. Not even a yawn, ahh until just now. Have a good night all.
See you next trip for sure.
