I got home @ PM today,
Thanks Spare for a great time. I had fun boating, fishing and meeting your wonderful family. Vic: your daughter is a real trooper, she helped launch and trailer your boat each day and she knew what to do. Good for her and you it shows your teaching your daughter something she will always know and probably use thru out her life. Way to go being a good dad. I didn't get a pic with my camera of the "gift" we bestowed on his Majesty now known as "Willy Nation". Seems to me Rob and Reel got pics of the ceremony so I hope to see them posted on here in a few days. I also want to thank Captn Pete and his wife for letting me ride and fish with them in their pretty V20. Michelle caught the first and largest of the 8 black drum we boated Saturday. All in all we had the 8 black drum and 2 Red Drum. Captn Pete's boat caught the largest and most fish of the weekend so he holds that title until next year when my boat will be there. There are plenty of story's, some we can share and some that won't get told, You guys will have to go to the next gathering so you know "the rest of the story". BTW we discussed spreading the gathering around so we all have a chance to go visit different parts of the US. I think it's great idea. Thanks again Spare you did a great job at putting this together.

We got home just before 10pm last night. We hit traffic for about 30 miles between Richmond VA and DC. Michele and I had such a good time we are already talking about how we want to do it again next year. It was great to meet everyone. we consider all you guys great friends of ours. Being the only wife there Michele said she never felt out of place and that she felt like she had known everyone for longer than just a few days.
Lee, It was my pleasure to have you on board our boat. I'm glad you did 'cause I'm still learning to fish and you hooked us up. Ozzie, I will never forget metting you. I meant what I said about the extra V that I have. It wasn't the beer talking I promise. Vic, You have such a sweet boat. It looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor. I could never tell it was an '83. I don't care how much it rattles I still love the way it sounds at idle. And like Lee said your daughter was a real trooper. None of my kids would have put up with this weekends activities. Willy, It was great to finally meet you. I hope we can get together angain soon. Next round is on me! Rob, sorry your boat was giving you some trouble this weekend. If you want I could take a look at it sometime. You need to PM me your address. I want to send you those speakers for taking care of our tab the other night. Dave, Thanks for setting this all up. It was great meeting you and your family. We had the time of our lives. We can't wait to do it again. BTW I already miss the SC weather. Right now at the lovely Jersey Shore its 38 degrees and raining. On wed. they are calling for a rain/snow mixture.

Made it home just fine. Great weekend. Melissa and I had a great time. She is a trooper for only being 8 yrs old. Thanks for the compliments on the boat. It was a real treat to meet all of you. Special thanks to Spare for pulling us all together with the oysters and Reel for being our guide on land and sea. Never touched the camera all weekend but Reel did. Can't wait to see some pics.
Three Wellcrafts and a Mckee Craft, No v-20's from South Carolina or neighboring states  Just saying...
