Like always, I'll be here......Hope I don't meet you in any "official" capacity". That would mean someone is going to be hauled away in a horizontal position !
NOT GOOD !
Boat Safely and remember to have a Designated Driver, on land or water !!

Was at Parker last weekend. It hit 112 degrees on Sunday when we left (3ish). Truly a beautiful weekend. We don't travel on the holiday weekends due to traffic, crazies, etc. Be safe & have fun!

Cool deal. We will be in a white Ski Brendella with an old school ski pilon extension for wake boarding. It has the strap that wraps around the bow before towers. The Keys has got to be one of the coolest places on the water in SoCal/Arizona. I want to get a fixer in there one day.

At least it's not snowing like it is here. This is the first time in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time that I havn't been on the water for Memorial Day weekend. Last year was Powell and before that the river for ever. Snowbird just got a foot so I might be strapping the board back on today.

It is a bit weird to think you will be snowboarding and I will be wake boarding (and trying to wake skate) on the same day. Kinda cool really.

My friends have been wakeboarding up here for the last two weeks in dry suits! F-That!
If I can't were trunks and a T, I'm not getting in the boat!

I used to do that too (10yrs. ago). Now it doesn't go with my current motto.
"I'm too old to be that uncomfortable.:)"
I really hope this weather clears up.

We don't go for the holiday weekends. We will be there for the Float. I can't get a DUI in a tube. We'll be staying at Sushine, last place before the dam.

Rain finally let up Sat mid day............Spent the afternoon on the water, and now I am sitting on the dock drinking a Tecate and listening to Brad Paisley........nothing but blue skys on the way.........
Tomorrow should be good..........
We are on the second canal..........Second house from the southern end of the Keys...........If anyone wants to stop by......Street is Papago loop if your driving.........

The accident just south of Havasu on Friday was pretty bad. A car went head on with a semi and went up in flames. All that was left of the car was the rear bumper and the occupants died. They still aren't sure how many people were in the car or who it was. It had the road between Havasu and Parker shut down for about 7 hours.

Yep, fun trip around the lake through Needles. Added about 2 1/2 hours to the drive, and we were only 20 minutes away. I would much rather drive around it than be involved in the accident. Sounded bad, and there wasn't much left of the semi on the drive home Sunday. Prayers said for those involved and thier families.

My boss was one of the first vehicles rerouted because of that accident.:eek: He had to back track and go through Needles because of the road closure. Took him longer but as previously stated, better to stuck in traffic than be in the accident. After my own wreck last year (ran off road pulling my boat:eek:) I am very careful of vehicles pulling trailers and give them plenty of room etc. I wish everyone else did this too because I would still have my boat.:rolleyes:
Had it not been for some drunken meat head at the Naked Turtle Friday night we would have a glitch free weekend. Sunday was the most fun. Took the boat out to the sandbar and dropped anchor with the rest of the fools and it was sunny all day. The Monster boat was out there with a tower of speakers. Those guys know how to throw a party.:cool:
Now I can barely keep my eyes open because I am so tired and I have a little sunburn but that comes with the territory. Thank you Havasu for a great time.:)

I went up to havasu friday and saw the the rear axle and burnt melons left from the truck.... it was bad. I guess the occupants of the car were parker locals (tweeker i guess).
