Hey guys,
We will be heading out to CA on friday. Should roll into Valencia on monday afternoon sometime. My wife and I may stay out there for a couple of days before we head back. However the Big red bullet will be staying out there.
Some of you might want to drop by early next week take a look.
Let the games begin,,,,,,,
It is sort of sad because our boating season is over here in Tennessee.
But there is always next year!
Take care , MIchael

Michael,
I havent been home in a while due to the local fire. I will try and get together with you while you are around. Can I drive your boat again before you put it away? :crossx: :220v: :crossx: :)
Thanks
Gary

actually i filled it up last week for a poker run that got rained out so it needs to be emptied so to say.

He did and I'm watching my email for the quote. I pulled the trigger on the stone and hired the tile guy. The tile / stone distributor sweetened up the deal. :cool: . Still gonna spend way too much :mad:

You spending too much is a relative term. But Eddie will save you 50% for sure. You dont need this boat so lets not drive the price up....ok slim?

You boys have been in Tn too long.
Wont be long you will have to take your shoes off to count to 20 and NB will have to pull his pants down to count to 21........
Ya see you fellas have the decimal in the wrong spot.
The red Barron will reqire you to move it to the right one place.
The CH Poker run Was three kinds of LAME.
What a waste of time.
I will call as we go through LAS and see how nice the water in mead is.....maybe put some west water through those sea strainers,
be well, and remember you have 9 days and 23 hours left in the bid

Dinner at Caesars? Give me a time, unless of course you are talking about this weekend,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if your talking next weekend, ,,,,,I'm in. I will even drive you to lake Mead and show you around. :crossx:
Michael, When you get to CA can I bid? My bid is $100K, I know that's about 50% of what it would be to duplicate your boat, but I figured it was worth a try? :crossx: :cry: :rollside:

RO.... Why dont you and the missusss fly out for a dinner or a few days with us? Its gonna be a good time.......

Hey Curley you and Larry might have to let some other folks from outside TN join in.
I know , i know but they pay for things with MONEY.
Not our usual method of payment but somehow I think the bank might frown on 56,000. and 10 goats 2 cows and a chicken.
So I may ask you to broaden your horizons and let some fresh air in.... unless NB is willing to swap LOt #6 in the new subdivision for it. Then we could talk.....
Gary Taylor if you would like for me to arrange it I will make arrangements for us/you to take a spin....you are truely welcome........I will call closer to ......
Be well all .....and for now .... The bid is 56,200. plus lot 6 in NB subdivision south Murfreesboro........MP

Well we made the 4500 mile trip. Which went pretty well.
1. I will never complain about the condition of Tennessee roads again.
2. Someone needs to explain the word professional to all of the professional truck drivers out there.
Needless to say it is good to be home.
Well the boat is in Valencia, and should be cleaned up soon and in the showroom. THe boat is 100% and is ready to go. (100 plus....)
Gene is the man to talk with, but I am available to answer any questions you might have. It truely is a beautiful boat.
2006 with 26 hours.................MP
