I'll probably leave my boat at Lou's this year, but will be there! The new 280 supposedly sucks more gas than my old 200XS :(

Is anyone staying at whites creek?
I would say that Arrowhead is better. A few years ago there were some that stayed at Whites Creek and if I'm not mistaken the cell service there is really bad. So there was some lack of communication about what was going on.

Yeah I've heard that, but being the wife and kids are gonna hang back and let me get the most from my first ally rally I'm trying to kelp my lodging expenses as cheap as possible and whites creek seemed a lot cheaper than the rest. I'll have to call arrowhead and see what the rate is. might have to buck up. Lol

I spoke to George who runs it a month or so ago and he was very pleased that we sent owners there last year and again this year. Seemed like a really nice guy. I have to make it a point of getting down to see him and thank him.

My uncle and I stayed at SBD last year. It was nice and quiet, about 3 miles down the road from Euchee if I remember right. We have a cabin again this year. George is nice, the cabins are very clean and parking is great for boats. Only issue is cold beer and 3 miles of travel. It will be good to have more company at SBD this year! Oh, and bring your own coffee supplies.

Craig, Brenda can't get off work for the rally. Her boss scheduled vacation early this year.
So I'm coming solo. You lost your banquet helper. Lol

Roy

lol.....she's forgiven.....no door prizes tickets drawings this year. Different format, that was getting old and lengthy. Besides my vendors are cheap and not giving up the goods like before. Probably raffle off a prop and maybe a 5o/50. John and Will are going to have an Awards program on Saturday nite during Karaoke.

Can't believe this week went by so fast!! Great time was had meeting some terrific people and relaxing on the water with a fishing pole in hand! (Not to mention a few drinks) Thanks to everyone that helps put on this fantastic week, and welcoming a new owner to the group. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and cannot wait to get down there again.. Y'all are a fun, welcoming group, and I'm very pleased I was able to make it down and meet everyone.. Thanks for a memorable week!!! Cheers

Same for me, Mick. It was great to meet some new people this year, and I had a blast at the events, and just hanging out as well. Mick, DoubleJ, John A, Will, the boys from FL, Roy, great talking to you guys this week. I look forward to next year's rally. Its hard sometimes to remember who you have spoken with in person, or just had decorate your boat with Rhody :).
