Glad to hear thay you didn't get whacked by any of those severe
thunderstorms we've been hearing about.


They were always hitting before I got there or after I just left.
Lucky me! Oh, and we didn't lose our power like so many other
thousands of folks around here did. Very lucky me!

Last night I woke up to go pee, and nothing on my body was glowing either, so I
guess it's pretty safe. (Of course, if I lived 20 miles from the nuclear power
station at Calvert Cliffs on the Chesapeake, I wouldn't be making snide comments
about Lake Anna!!)


To quell any questions, here is Lake Anna's claim to fame:

I got the new towable, which the little guys loved. The thing allows one to sit
almost inside and lean back. Much more comfortable that the one they laid on.


Renee loved it!


http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...g%20with%20Ren...


One nice thing about Lake Anna is that the calmness allowed us to just cut the
engine and enjoy the water (the water temp was about 85F).


http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...g%20with%20Ren...


Even Opa got into the act!

Smiles like this say it all...

This trip we found some islands with nice little beaches there on. Looking
forward to taking other daughter out there on Monday.

Nice photos. *Great jump shot! *I guess you aren't *that* old if you can
hit the shutter that quick!


You just don't know how many times I made them jump in the water! :)

That's what it's all about, John.


Actually, there is more to boating than towing grandkids around on a tube,
but...what the hell...herring is old, creaky, and sliding into deeper
stupefaction, so pulling around a tube on that lake may be all he can
handle.

Are you the Harry who just bought a Mac? Sucker. You guys will go to the
ends of the earth just to **** me off. Your spoofing doesn't bother me a
bit. In fact I'm flattered at the attention you fools pay me.

Does anybody even look at the headers? It takes up too much room on my
little laptop to bother opening them up, my eyes suck I need big
fonts. I just snicker at all of the Harrys. Truthfully, although I see
most of the spoofers I really never bother parsing which one is real
or not... I just move along to the next post as I am sure most of you
all do here too;)

Finally after a decade, and with the use of my filters, and the great
work of the spoofers, Harry, Bonnie, and the rest of the pink army is
pretty much irrelevant here at rec.boats... at least to me.
Schweeeeet!

Later, gotta' go put the engine back in Jessi's bike and break it in
for the weekend. We cracked a piston last week, ugh. On a good note I
have really been working hard on suspension this year and I think I
pretty much got it dialed in on my bike. I was cornering like a madman
the last two days after some pro help with the clickers (suspension
adjustment). Had a great moto with Jessi yesterday, she was holding
back but we ran around for a few fast (for me, totally on the edge)
laps with me on my 125 and she on her little 100cc pit bike;)

I know Harry, slow, minibike, etc.... Tell that to the girls behind
her while she was kicking off second and third places all season at
Supercross, on her RMZ 250;) Oh, and for the record, she finished
third overall last season in the NEMA womens 125/250 series, and 11th
in the Mens/Boys 125/250 series... Oh, and she ran both series on a
two stroke 100 cc shorty;)

This kid works so hard, so anyway, later guys... I know, slow,
motorcycle, geetars, beer... Hummm, beer, I miss Loogie, gonna' have
to check in with him...


Sorry to hear about the piston. **** happens. I broke a ring on a
Guzzi while in Germany. Had to replace head, piston, rings etc, etc.
Pain in the ass. Did both sides, and it cost only about $500. Did the
work myself, which saved a bundle. Guzzis are easy to work on - the
older ones anyway.

Great to hear Jessi's doing so well and having a great time. Keep up
the good work. It definitely pays off.


Yeah, I did the work on her little bike but the Suzuki has some
aftermarket parts and I don't want to chance working on her race engine.
Bad day today, snapped a clutch cable just as we were going out for the
first moto. That was on my bike, the baby 125;)

You didn't have a spare? I carry a spare set of clutch, throttle, and choke
cables on my Guzzi. I also carry a spare u-joint, which has saved me while
