The hubby has to work tomorrow so we are a no go for the river. Might try and hit Elsinore on Sunday though.
I wore one of my OP6C shirts to work today to pretend like I am gonna be at the river. :frown:
Anyone else stuck in town???? :hammerhea

We're staying in town, almost never go out on this weekend - too dangerous :skull:
May go to Marina Del Rey to see old friends, may just get some repairs done and BBQ.

Not going but still going to party, hang out around the pool. Make everyone think we are out of town. Otherwise we will be bugged all weekend.
Partytime! :cool:

I'm hanging out close to home as I sold my big water boat on Wednesday and haven't replaced it yet, and after rolling the Schiada in big weekend water, I can't bring myself to do the same in the jet. :D

We never go to the shack on Holidays... too many crazies. We were there last weekend, and headed back out in 2 weeks. Just gonna hang out at the casa floatin in the cement pond. BBQ & a little brain cell damage on Sunday.
Let the animals have the river for a weekend..........

Mrs. Bordsmnj
05-27-2005, 07:03 AM
Come to think of it, we usually don't do holiday weekends anyways. But I guess I have river fever because we have not been out yet this season except once in Feb I think. Our new boat has yet to be acquainted with the Colorado river. :eek:
Doesn't look we will be able to head out until OP6C. :2purples: Better late than never.

Holiday weekends are why Havasu got the nickname ZOO!!. No way. you couldn't drag me there this weekend. Too dangerous.
Staying home with wife and kids. Probably play in the pool all weekend. :D

Woo hooo !! I am going to be out there with my jet ski jumping wave behind boats all day long. Then I am going to be floating in my tube with a cold one getting tan. After having fun on the water, I am getting my lawn chair out with a cooler and sitting at the launch laughing my asss%^&( of as people yelling at their spouse and kids while launching their boat. :D

Having that one extra day off is not worth the risk. I don't want to end up
being one of the horror stories that we all read about on Tue after the holiday
weekends.

No river for me this weekend. To many drunks and rookie boaters out at the zoo for me. Gonna work on the boat and clean it up. The rest of the weekend I'll just chill out with the wife and kids and probably consume a few barley pops. :D

Mixing with the sediment of the gene pool isn't really the worst part. Spending 8 hours each way with them on the freeway just to GET there and BACK is the worst.

I was just talking to my friend who is headed to the river this afternoon and was thinking how happy I will be Monday afternoon when I am not stuck in traffic!! :smile:

I am staying home as well. We went last weekend to the calm before the storm. BBQ, and some ice cold Coors Light's and no traffic sounds good to me. Everybody seems to have fun on the big weekends except the boat driver. I hope everybody plays safe and drives sober. A great weekend is when nobody gets hurt, or in trouble with law and the boat doesn't break.

We're home too - having a busted up motor will do that to ya.
Wouldn't be there anyways, not worth all the hassles.
I made a quick trip to Covina and while traveling up the 15, saw one performance boat, 4 runabouts, 2 sets of Sea Doos. All the runabouts on new trailers...so all newbies.
Stay safe!

I'll be staying home. My daughters' first birthday party is sunday and couldn't find a backup DJ for the Friday or Saturday. I try to avoid the real . busy weekends up there anyway. I have enough (if there is such a thing) vaction to go during the week. Can't wait till the kid is out of school so we can start going more.

Every year I sit out there and wonder why everyone jams to the River on these Holiday Weekends.
Idiots on boats and jet skis. Strong Police presence. Drunks on the water and road. Traffic. Idiots on boats and jet skis. Overcrowded conditions. Gouged hotel prices. Ramp Rage. Idiots on boats and jet skis. Fights. etc. etc. etc. Idiots on boats and jet skis. (Did I mention that one?)
I know I wouldn't be out there if I didn't have to be.
If I had a choice and the ability, I think it would be more worthwhile to work the Holiday (OT) and take a Monday off on a non-holiday weekend. Can still party on the weekend and relax and wind down on Monday.

Is there a "planned" dam run next weekend? We'll be in Laughlin on Thursday morning, 6/2-6/6, and I want the mrs. as well as our friends to see the damn dam. I'd like to follow and or participate in a group run if that is possible...
peace
I hear there is a bunch of peeps gonna be out there at the same time or something. NOt really a planned or organized event though. If you know what I mean. wink wink. :D See the goose family picnic thread in Hot Spots West.
