Re: The THIRD Central Florida Get-Together! NOW WITH DATES!!

Thanks sasto...I'm so therre it's redickolous:p

Ridiculously waiting to meet you!
:D
Well, just got back from a 6 day cruise to Mexico. For someone that loves to be on a boat so much, I don't think I'll be on a cruise again for a long time. Not for me. ...

Sasto...sorry my friend, no hot tub :(.
With all the opportunities I've had over the years to go on a cruise ship. I have never done it. A heck of alot of traveling on a private yacht, but not with a brew in my hand. Where did you go in Mexico, Fireman?

I woke up this morning all better! No pain! :D

As far as Sastos back is concerned, he must remember to alternate heat with cold. Since you've got the cold covered, maybe I should bring a heating pad and he can lounge under the tiki til the medication kicks in:eek:

Heat / cold is a great idea, but I'm thinking hot wings and cold beer!

Dang! My back is hurting again. I don't see it getting any better till after June. Thanks Guys. :redface:

Re: The THIRD Central Florida Get-Together! NOW WITH DATES!!

Where did you go in Mexico, Fireman?

Typical tourist stops. Left Tampa and headed to Cozumel. Stayed the day, rented sand rails, visited bat caves, etc. Then we went to Costa Maya, but the seas were too rough and they closed the port. No ships in or out! So we ended up coming straight back to Tampa. Screwed us out of a shore excursion :mad:.

On the other hand, we made some cool friends, hung out at the pool and the casino, and accumulated a $550 bar bill. Is that bad?!? Can you imagine...Stick and I...drinking enough alcohol to build up a $550 bar bill? I think I got ripped off somewhere :facepalm:

Re: The THIRD Central Florida Get-Together! NOW WITH DATES!!

And don't forget we got an hour closer when DST kicked in!
Oh yeah... Ya seem ta be fittin' right in already!!!;)

Hey Richard......Are ya' gonna make it?. I can speak for the others....Like to meet you. Us that have met have differences and simularities. You would be very welcome amongst these guys and gals. Nothing pretentious about this group.

Fun loving, laid back, go with the flow, folks.

See ya in June!
Ya sure can speak for the others, us others... we others... ussins... Oh, whatever!!! Come on JUNE!!!

Hey Sasto, why you go and pull the back muscles, that is no fun. Hope you feel better soon. See what happens when Kimi leaves you alone, someone needs to watch what you are doing. LOL
Maybe we should just all get together more often... You know, ta keep our friend safe.:rolleyes:

Dang...my friend! You must have "inside information"...
He's got all the inside information he needs... He knows you... Does it take any more than that?;)

Well, just got back from a 6 day cruise to Mexico. For someone that loves to be on a boat so much, I don't think I'll be on a cruise again for a long time. Not for me. Felt like I was trapped in a mall!! Did meet some really cool people there, though. Met 3 families that are from our small town and live only blocks from us! How crazy is that? That you would bump into someone that you don't know in a group of 2000 people, start a conversation, and find out they live around the corner! Also met a cool couple from West Palm that we hung out with for the last 3 days. They are going to try to make it up for the party as well. They would fit right in...

Sasto...sorry my friend, no hot tub :(. But I'll be happy to get up and get you your beer and shots. Next best thing to medication! This way, you can rest comfortably in the chair or pool float and immerse yourself in the cool, pain reducing beverage of your choice!
Glad you had a good time, regardless of cruises not being your thing. Pretty cool that you met three different groups of people who live close to you. Hope to meet them in June.

It had to be Stick, I know you could never drink that much. LOL
Fireman? Drink? NNNnnnaaahhh!!!

I know! Right?!? That's what I've been saying all along....
Don't worry, pal... I'll keep your secret. I won't tell anyone that this whole "party thing" is just a cover for a mass intervention for Stick... SSSHHHhhhhhhhhhhh.....................:rolleyes:





I finally got my wife and I smart phones. Got a great deal on two Samsung Stratospheres... 96 cents each. I tried to post the above multi-quote post from the phone muliple times, but I kept losing my place typing and accidentally navigating away from the page. After trying five or six times or so, I was too frustrated with it. I tried again today, and same problem. I guess I've just got to get used to it and become more proficient with practice.

I know you've got to be at least 10% smarter than the equipment you're using... But this is a really smart phone!!!:rolleyes:

I think the problem lies mostly with multiple quotes. That's where I kept losing my place and had to try multiple times to get the curser in the right place. That's when I'd accidentally end up on another web page and lose everything I'd managed to type. I guess I'll just stick with regular posting until I get more accustomed to the phone.

Anyway... Didn't mean to 'jack this thread. I'll start another in Non Boating Technical Topics in hopes that people will have some good insights. The whole smartphone thing is new to me... Cwap... I've only been using computers for about five years now.

I ain't sayin' but maybe poor Sasto got wore out crawlin' around small spaces on our boat gettin' her ready to go again! One more electronic part to install and a little more advice shouldn't be too hard to take, then he and Driver Kimi can get rid of us for a while. although I wouldn't be surprised to see them in Peck Lake helping us find our crab trap. It cost us 30 bucks so we bought a 80 dollar portable fish finder so we could retrieve it. We'll see how that goes! We got our new anchor and the rails go back on tomorrow. sasto helped me get all the stuff I need to paint our girl while Skip mozies down the ICW. He won't miss me beign by his side once he has his new chart plotter to play with. (I hope) Sasto got me a bait bucket and Kimi a pink glow in the dark fishin pole so we are all set to keep our grills full of fillets! We have promised to stay in constant touch so to make sure we get back inland in June for the party of the century. Can't miss that, no matter what. Fireman I hope you have a big place and uncomplainign neighbors cause I think we're gonna have a pretty good time. I had my first jello shots on St. Patty's Day and just have to check them out in different colors. gotta go get my day started and see what mischief I can get into.

Yup...Got a little Captain in me. I'd like to meet him someday!


That looked like fun.

I'll second that!

He's got all the inside information he needs... He knows you... Does it take any more than that?;)


I know you've got to be at least 10% smarter than the equipment you're using... But this is a really smart phone!!!:rolleyes:

I'm screwed :facepalm: .1... You guys do know me.2...My smart phone makes me smarter....but she is still smarter than me!

No worries Carol. I'm a bilge rat by heart. I enjoy working on "Home Stone". She is a keeper!

I'm blaming my back on barnicles. A day of rest for me. Some NASCAR and a couple brews with friends at the Tiki. Resting up for that 100footer that I need to tackle this week. To young to feel this dang old! If I had Fireman's workout regime, this would be easier. But then again, he doesn't mind getting up early and running while puking up purple beer, mini beers, and Southern Comfort. What a guy!

LOL!! You give me too much credit! I never did puke!! However, that 6 year old, sun baked Southern Comfort almost did me in...:facepalm:

Since my shoulder surgery in December, I've only been to the gym 3-4 times. But I just hit the 90 day mark, so it's time to get back in to the gym and in shape. I got a bit doughy over the last 3 months...feel like a pig.

The cruise did't help, either. Buffets and pizza everywhere you look. And of course, everything you eat gets washed down with 2 or 8 beers...

Carole, the place is big enough for a party. We have pretty cool neighbors, but one set always calls the cops around 12:30-1:00 am. We usually get off with a warning until they come rolling back in around 2:00...:rolleyes:

Re: The THIRD Central Florida Get-Together! NOW WITH DATES!!

I'm glad to hear your surgery was a success, Fireman. I have confidence you will get all your health back.

Skip and Carol will be leaving us soon...they will be missed by many. They made some new friends during their stay. Even several of the 4 legged kind. I think during their travels they will come to realize what a gem we have here. Nothing special....nothing high class, just good ol' folks with something in common. Real boaters on real missions, just as themselves.

CoastalRichard and I are having some fun with lncoop's Arkansas Get Together thread. I encourage you guys to follow and post. Let's show them what we are made of, and the lasting friendships we have made.

Looking foreward to our Family Reunion......See Y'all in June!

I'm still lurking just not as much lately. We've been busy travelling to remote tropical islands. :D

First I've heard of the Incoop/Arkansas thread. I'm going to check it out, it's a lot closer.

If us hillbillys come hang out with you guys will you come hang out with us??? :D:eek::rolleyes:
