Checked out the weather forecast for this coming weekend, Thursday is 30% rain and thunderstorms high of 91, Friday and Sat will be sunny and pretty warm (HOT) 93 and 95 but for tooning and our weekend, I guess that'll be just fine.

How many of you want to fish? Cruise? what else do you want to do? I'll be bringing some tools (cordless drill/driver, etc) and I have some LED light strips I'll be bringing with me (Red).  I'm thinking of a fishing contest - say we all put $5 in the pot and whoever brings in the Biggest Fish wins the pot. ($5 a boat?). I plan on printing several Google Earth overlays of the area. The dam isn't too far away. Brian, are you bringing scuba gear (oh and fishing is from topside with rod & reel)  as we know Brian could skunk us if we let him dive. This would be on Friday (afternoon?)  or Saturday morning ?   I know I'll have to be at the dock by 11:15am so I can go to Malvern to get the hog to be back by sometime soon after 12:15 - 12:30.

I'll get with Holiday Inn Express Thursday to finalize their Breakfast Room payment and get other details. Such as would they allow us to get ice from them?  Cleanup arrangements, anything else like that? Anyone else got ideas, questions I or others should consider. I need to call Clarion about those dock slips to see if we can leave our boats in the water (if its free or a little charge).

Hope you all have a blast!!!

I'll catch you all on the water up the road.

I'm up for whatever Friday afternoon and Saturday.  I should be home from work by 5:30 Friday if anybody wants to meet up for a late afternoon cruise.  I can show some people around the lake.  We could go around on one boat or get a couple of them together. 

What else is needed for lunch on Saturday?  What can we bring?

Brian, visibility is not anywhere near what it is in Ouachita or Degray.  In fact, I don't know if I have ever seen anybody diving in Hamilton.  That's not to say it can't be done.  Just watch for boat traffic when surfacing.

vondy, here's what bboater said he'll do. I know, how about some dip and chips?  If there's leftovers, we could tie up together out there on the water somewhere and have an evening meal or something, anything to save on evening dining expenses you know

Works for me.  I'll get the wife to make a couple different dips.  Anything leftover we can bring out on the boats.  What is the head count looking like right now?

I'm up for some fishing whenever.  I'll have to warn you.  I have not done much fishing on Hamilton so I'm not really sure where to go.  Might have to leave that up to the experts.

Yep! we'll be up on Thursday. Get in a quick tour of the lake before she gets rough  on the weekend from traffic. Really looking forward to this trip, been raining for the last week like cats & dogs. The Weather this weekend looks great! We should have a blast! See you all there!

Is it the same number I have from when you got the motor? If it has changed let me know. Also waiting to hear from architect. The job may be moved to another day or later Friday. Hopefully they will move it to another day and I can come on earlier Friday. Rick my wife will most likely take plenty of pics to post

Charles,

Sorry about the hotel.  Hopefully it isn't too bad.  Also, I will PM you my work number.  Feel free to call me during the day today if you need anything. 

If you can't get the rabbits cooked with the hog let me know.  I can cook them at the house tomorrow before the lunch.
