Anyone heading out this weekend 07/27
« on: July 24, 2013, 10:41:28 AM »
Just wondering if anyone is planning on heading out this weekend?
I think this has become an addiction.

No just figured if it was nice I would prob be out somewhere. Should hopefully have the neighbors boat up and running as well. Maybe just out on White Bear Lake?

I do have a saints game Sat evening to go to.

No the points were bad end of last year and we just finally ordered them the other day. We are changing over to a pertronix set up

Joe there is a place to beach. Basically in the middle of the lake there is a point that comes out towards the south side of the lake. There is a volleyball net set up there. That is where everyone goes to hang out and swim. Weekends on the lake can get busy. The boat launch fills up fast on weekends. I usually try to get there by 11 otherwise it can be hard to find a parking spot for the truck and trailer. Last yes the family would be with. Here is an original artwork piece I put together. Mike or Scott would know the lake probably a little better that I

Right there is no chanel but there really aren't too many areas of concern until you go upstream from elk river. We're planning late morning on Sunday, no specific time yet.

Got Brian's bot up and running last night I had no idea how easy the Pertronix is to install. Sounds like he may be coming out on sat as well if we go.

Only thing it is not supposed to be that warm if we planned on swimming. Only a high of 70.

I am thinking about just working on the 23 or start pulling apart the parts boat.

Prob not going out tomorrow either. Thinking the 23 has not got any attention so I will prob work on that if anyone is in the area feel free to stop by.
