Re: Arkansas Get Together

I see you've had the pie at Shangri La too. Better get a couple just to be sure. Would August be less likely to conflict with the kids' summer camps?

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Hehe...they do have some good pie!! August......I don't know yet. I believe they are going to Houston on a mission trip, but I am not sure when that is. I think we are all going to Destin sometime in June, but that is still in the air as well. So.....me.....heck, just shoot a date out there that will be good for you.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Okay peeps, how 'bout the last weekend in July (27-29) or August 10th to 12th. My guess is August would be easier with regard to lodging and logistics, but I'm good with either I think. Double checking the July weekend right now for conflicts.

Either weekend works for us !!!

Re: Arkansas Get Together

That's so funny. I was pondering whether to bump and decided to wait until after the long weekend.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Yeah, there's a serious H20 defficiency around here. Makes me sad cause I can't go to the Buffalo. But, I can go to Ouachita, which I did today. Just got home.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

I went to Hot Springs today. As we were crossing the 2 bridges, I was looking at all the boats going everywhere. I bet I saw 25 boats just from 1 bridge!! Still looked like fun though!

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Yeah, there was definitely more than one boat at Spillway. Sure was nice though. I didn't want to come home.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

I just got home from Hot Springs, I had a guy pulling a boat come VERY close to rear-ending me. I turned on the next available road to get behind him, and WOW, it was a AGFC truck and boat!!

D'oh! I'm just glad you didn't say it was a blue Expedition towing a Suntracker party barge.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Lol. Nope, it wasn't you. That guy got CLOSE to my bumper though. I couldn't believe it when I saw the Game and Fish symbol on the truck. We did see alot of boats on the road and on the water, but I think we saw more motorcycles!

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Yeah, the bikes are all over down there. Riding has exploded in popularity. We stopped at Fisherman's Wharf a week ago on our way home from Catherine and half the customers on the deck were in riding gear. Don't think any of them was under fifty. It was a trip. Good for them I say though.

Shouse Ford is about 5 miles from where I grew up. Sad story.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Oh no. This is the first I've heard of it. Now several people will never be the same. So tragic. I know last Saturday when Gracie fell off the tube I waved my arms and pointed at her for any boat that got within a hundred yards LOL. They all waved, smiled and nodded their heads in acknowledgement. I just can't imagine losing someone like that.

Re: Arkansas Get Together

I couldn't imagine how they feel now. Just goes to show, it can happen. I am the same way when pulling a tube. I try to get away from people when I am pulling someone, just doesn't always work out that way.

I'm at a loss for words, "scoyt". Sad !!!

Re: Arkansas Get Together

Very sad indeed. I am still trying to find out who it was.
