#3) My calendar is pretty open as far as dates are concerned.

#4) I ain't kissing any part of MJ. Period! Once you meet him, you'll understand.


Let's do it!

Point taken, then again theres alot less of him now. I still can't believe that's him in that fishin pic.

Sounds great!! I an now applying for disability so time is not important issue for me! I have a great camp ground like 1 mile from me, hotels all over the place! I can take a few guys on my boat with CB and I, also for a couple of daysI can park a couple of boats here also. This sounds great, I hope it happens!
No feet kissing needed

what dates??

Well, we have the Barnegat raft up coming up in July, so it will have to be sometime after that. Mid to late August sounds great for me. I have inlaws that live in Sturbridge, Mass. so I've made that trip lots of times... Never with a trailer, but I pretty much know what to expect. It's about 3 1/4 hrs for me to get to their house from mine, so it only should be about another hour - hour and a half to get to Buzzards Bay. Sounds like fun.

Well the response has been underwhelming to say the least! Is it the lack of New England hospitality?

Is it something in the water?

The last two weeks of August are when I usually take my vacation. The weather here always seems to be perfect then. After Labor Day it is like throwing a switch.

Destroyer, I am about 10 mintes away from the Sturbridge exit on the Mass Pike/ I-84. My son works at the Sturbridge Host hotel. You don't have an excuse to not attend.

If anyone can make it but doesn't feel like towing their boat I figure I could take at few guys if we are fishing and 5-6 if it is just a raft up.

As an enticement I will offer to buy and cook a chikken lobster, a Qt of steamers and a couple of ears O' korn plus awl the Sam Adams you can suck down for the first dozen lucky respondents to sign up for the V-20 Masshole-alla-palooza - 2012. Be there or be square. Honestly guys, if you are on the forum you should plan to be there or have a good excuse, like a death in the family, your own death might be a barely acceptable reason. Anything else run it by the Moderator for a hall pass.

So just to throw a date out there how about August 18th or 25th?

[chumbucket]

Either of those dates I can plan around. As I said, if there are members without boats, I can bring mine and MJ's son can pilot his.

[macojoe]

work for me either one!!

The second week in August we have a shore house with the family rented. Other than that I and Senor FishBones will make the treck.

So what is up?

If we cannot find a "raft up" place, maybe we can do a "belly up place" (for those of us that still have bellies).

Plus it might be a better way to meet and greet everyone, Also, If I am late coming back from my trip, it might be easier for me to make it.

I'll second MJ's suggestion. So it's a plan, right?
