Hey everyone,

I've been out of boating for awhile and tied up with life. I hate it when that happens.

Heading to Clear Lake on Wednesday to check out a 22c. AND it has a 2013 blue pill.:biggrin.::biggrin.:

Hopefully, I'll be able to make it to some gatherings.

We are getting rain and perhaps there will be some Texas events this year.

I hope all have been well.

Hey Scott,

Not sure. The boat has been painted and is white with what looks like zf graphics.
The owners name is Tucker. Do you know the boat?

Thinking only the deck stripe painted. Reach out to Blake Sullivan. I really wanted to buy the boat from him last year...

Wow does this bring back memories. We have got to schedule a Texas Roundup and get people together.
I will have a salt ready boat one way or another so the coast is not out of the question for me. :party:
BTW, have you seen my "brother" Mike around? Tell him I've been playing with cars and he might want to visit again to go for a drive. :yes::eek:

Thanks for the tip JayZ.

Really good to hear you are looking to get wet again, your lakes should be brimming far cry from awhile back!

Mike!!
If you have Lenny's X-18, is he back to borrowing boats? LOL And he is welcome to take mine for a spin anytime. Well, when I have one. Are you up for a road trip? Grab Lenny and head down, we have lakes again. :yes::yes:

Hey Phil, Great to hear from you. I'll give you a call and we can catch up.

Scott, We were heading to the coast for a test ride and took a right turn into the ER. Dad has been having medical problems all year and has kept me busy.

I'm really leery about a Blackhawk hull and the rocker. I would prefer to have a classic 22 or 18. An 18 would be easier all around and would fit in my garage.

Sorry Brother, just saw this post. I have been battling cancer for the last year and it's been a bitch!!!

BUT, I am getting better. I was discharged yesterday after my fourth and last (hopefully) surgery. Give me a few months and I'll be good as new.

Yep, I did get a 22. I'll send some pics.

You can keep the scotch, I'm hardcore Ensure Protein Plus these days. LOL

Wondering why we hadn't seen you here much.
That is not good news. Take care and get well soon Wes.

Thanks guys.

I'm doing well, just taking easy and recovering from surgery. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, it just takes forever to get there. Oh well, I have plenty of time to research upgrades. :yes:

Hi Wes,
I was just on Facebook and saw a post in Backroads of Texas where a woman commented on Possum Kingdom Lake about a Donzi group she used to join. Apparently she is your ex - Jennifer? Are you back into boating now?

Hey Bill,

I have to apologize, I blazed past your place on the way home with the 22 a few years back. I made a weekend trip to Michigan without missing a day of work. Although I did hold all my meetings at a repair shop around Greenville on Monday.

No guessing. Jennifer did like to Facebook though. I check in with her from time to time to see that everything is ok.

Unfortunately, I have not had the new boat out in a year. Tomorrow, I have what I hope to be my last surgery. Then I can work on getting healthy again. After that, I'm off to the races and I won't blaze by next time without saying hi. I'll probably have a boat in tow too. :boat:

Thanks Glen. Two surgeries in two weeks was a bit tough but removing three staple left in from two years ago REALLY helped with the pain. :bonk::bonk::bonk:

I'll be boating as soon as I can get out of the house.:boat::boat::boat:
