My family and I are going to Shell Island for a barbecue, swimming and tubing. That's here in St. Andrews Bay Panama City Florida.

My brother Tim, daughter Kate, son-in-law Aaron and I will be spending Memorial weekend on Forth Debsconeag Lake, north of Moosehead Lake in Maine. Very remote, fishing good, creature comforts, hopefully great weather

Re: Memorial Weekend. Where are you going?

Since I live in a big boating community, I usually avoid the boat alltogether. The local sandbar hangout will be packed, like spring break for older adults. It is crazy out there. I've turned into a fair weather boater. :facepalm:

Re: Memorial Weekend. Where are you going?

We will be camping at Salisbury State Park in MA.

Will drop the boat in the Merrimack River at the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean. One day we will head south along Plum Island into Essex Bay and conditions permitting around Rockport and into Gloucester Harbor. The other trip will be heading north up to Hampton Beach and along the coast up to Portsmouth NH and maybe into the Piscataqua River or possibly up to Brave Boat Harbor north of Kittery ME.

If the conditions are bad for my small boat instead of heading out in the Atlantic we will head up the Merrimack River inland.

Saturday: Checking everything on the boat. Loading up the items I realized that I forgot to put in the boat on my first trip out this year.
Sunday: Mark Twain Lake in Northeastern Missouri to meet up with a bunch of other Regal owners from the area for a big raft-up.
Monday: Carlyle Lake in Southeastern Illinois.

Open up the back gate and back the boat in the water, may go to the beach, may stay up in the river and fish, will see when we get on the water.

Pnut island, west palm beach, FL is where the party is at this weekend. Being 10 minutes from there is a big plus.

I'm with this guy. The two times I will NOT go out are Memorial Day weekend and any day during the week of 4th of July. That's when all the crazies are out on the water.

Heading out to a county campground right on good ol' Lake Lanier. Camping tonight and tomorrow night. Tomorrow morning at the crack o' dawn I am going out on my first guided fishing trip. Very excited to finally boat some bass, even if its not from my boat.

No travel plans for us. Just staying home and putting the boat out on a local lake.

I'll put the lift down after church today (Sunday) and make sure she's happy because tomorrow (Memorial Day) I've got a 3 year old and a 4 year old that just got new fishing rods! There'll be some serious fishing taking place around these parts.
