Time to give thanks...

Thank you to Anchor Marine for renting a boat to an idiot that almost ran over my wakeboarder in tow yesterday afternoon...

Also, another thanks goes out to the two idiots driving the pair of Outer Limits boats that passed a tuber by the markers between Mark and Bear at no more than 30 feet and at probably 70mph+. You give all powerboaters a bad name and should take your floating bling elsewhere if you can't drive courteously and safely. Going fast does not have to be dangerous.

I know where one of the boats came from, if anyone is in the Glendale area and beats me to it please thank them for me. I am sure it will be quite obvious where they reside.

By the way, did anyone catch the plane near Camp yesterday that was probably 20-30 feet off the water? It buzzed over the top of a Rinker so close I thought it was going to hit. Was that you Aquadeziac? It looked like your boat. Close call regardless...

Well codeman I hear you, I saw many incidents this weekend too, incuding one with an Anchor Marine Rental......

And to top it off I went skiing this weekend for the first time in three years....and for the first time found myself thinking "better not fall until I take a look around and know...where everyone is....." not a good feeling to have when your just trying to have some fun...........

On the lighter side.....I must be an idiot trying to get up on one ski after not skiing for 3 years....I did it by the way on the first try.....but man am I sore this morning.........

And thank you to the MP boat that was way above headway speed well within 150' of shore last night, and thank you to......

And I'd like to thank all of the boats that barrelled straight for me and veered off at the last minute as I limped to shore at headway speed last week with a broken prop (storm damage, not bad driving). If I could have gotten out of your way on the super highway that runs East-West along the Gilford shore, I would have. Thanks for all the words of support.
