man WOG now that you want to splash her things just won't happen for you. Just remember, good things come to those who wait and everything happens for a reason.

North of the lake last night they had baseball sized hail. Predicting that for western OK tonight and it's moving east. I'm really gettin discouraged. I'm off Friday so I was hoping the weather would cooperate but right now it's not looking so good.

And... I have'nt said anything but...I went to the Heart Dr. on Tues. for some Tests. Been havin some "Issues" and they did some checkin. Supposed to get the results tomorrow or the next day. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks to ALL!!! I've pretty much decided that If it's semi calm, not raining, in the 70's and I can get my neighbor to go with me, the Friday Afternoon, She WILL be splashed. I want to get this DONE, so I can move on!

To tell you the truth, I've almost forgot what that is. Maybe the smile will return if and when she's in the water running and creating a wake. Thanks for the encouragement, LL. I RRRRRRRRReally needed that!!!!;)

Believe me- You get that girl in the water, fire that motor up, and you will forget how to NOT have fun... Until you start on the next one, that is :)

Just got caught up with what's goin on...

First and foremost, my thoughts and prayers are with you that all is well for both you and your Family...

Second, I can understand the anxiety of being almost there and not being able to git-r-dun...but don'tcha let it get to ya...

It will all come together in a joyful and triumphant splash and vroom!

Best Regards my friend,
Gus

PS- I placed an order for calm breezes, sunshine and white fluffy clouds to engulf your neck of the woods...oh yah and lots of hungry fish, so don't forget the rod and tackle...:rolleyes:

Don't get discouraged Woody and take care of your health first... I hope everything turns out okay and that any medical issues are minor and short-lived...

Hang in there and keep us posted.

Very best,

Redoing a boat is a lot like child birth.
Once the projects over and done, we forget about all the bad things, and just enjoy the fruits of our labors.;)

Then we start another one, and it all comes back to us.:facepalm:

To whom it may concern,

Please be advised that due to a severe case Botitis Cerebrus Ifectimucho Lackus Hydratus,

I highly suggest that Mike spend the next several days attempting to get properly hydrated.

Only through continued water therapy, every few days can this very afflicting infirmity be controlled.

If you have any questions or concerns please, feel free to contact the I.nternational B.otitis O.ffice A.nd T.echnical S.upport medical staff for further clarification.

Very truly yours,
Epstein's Mother

If the tornadoes don't get me then MAYBE sometime next week she'll get wet. Very Disappointing.
