LOL, that was just wrong wasn't Puff! The weather was low 70s morning mid 80s high and high 70s at night, I would say. Friday was the warmest but we always had a nice breeze so all was good.

That is great temp. Went fishing this morning... At 3:30am it was 28 degrees with. 1/4" of frost ice on the seat cushions but after a nothing day, it was 52 when we pulled it at the dock at 11am.

You posted a few pictures of those trees with the long shaggy moss hanging down ... I love those trees, they are so majestic. You all must have made a ton of memories. Anyone do any fishing ?

Any chance you can put names with those faces in the group pic?


If it's tourist season, how come I can't shoot 'em?

All I can say is WOW.
It was a honor and a pleasure to meet such a great group of people.
And not only did I meet MACK,but had the pleasure of eating some ribs cooked on him.
Wait,what?
No pics it didn't happen?
Feast yer eyes on this!

He likes to photo bomb too.

Anyway, had a blast. Learned a few things and came away with some great ideas.
I would strongly suggest trying to make it to the next Gathering.
Frank,his lovely wife Lisa,Rod Crafter and his cool wife Maryanne, The Czar and daughter Kirstin,Greg,crazy ass Fishless Mickey,etc.THANK YOU FOR WELCOMING ME INTO YOUR GROUP.
They epitomized what BBQ is all about.
Good friends sharing good food and helping others just to help.
I could not have had a better time.
Well,maybe if RodCrafters boat was working.....LOL
Can't wait to do it again sometime.
