** The OFFICIAL River Ranch III Thread - High Resolution Images (dial-up warning!) **
I'm back home now, and I had a little time to go through the many images we were able to shoot at the River Ranch. This event keeps getting better and better, and it's just amazing. So many fast boats, skilled driving, and so many good laughs - it does not get any better. A huge thanks to everyone that made this possible! This is a must-attend event.
Okay, now for the photos... I'll be adding photos to the new "River Ranch III" gallery, but for now, here are some sample images. All of the images in this post were shot by me, but I'll be adding Maureen's images in a follow-up reply tomorrow. Many more to come, so check back!
All photos shot with a Nikon D200/Nikkor 70-200 AF-S 2.8 VR

Dooooode, lunch at 9:30??? at this rate you will be back on breakfast by 5:00
Just wanted to say thanks to lots of folks, but especially Corona Mike. For an event that big to come off that well, takes a lot of work. Thanks man, it was an awesome event. Also Scott and Charlotte for the jello, jojo and sue for the sombreros and tay-kill-ya, Hogg for the gator and hush puppies, Greg for the spin on the BMX, Driver for the behind the scenes stuff trying to get the race set up and the use of the shady oaks, Doug, Jodi, Foley and Gina for the auction and everyone who dug into their pockets, or donated items to help out Joe. Its a great family, and it was good to see so many of you again.. or for the first time.

Heavy law enforcement presence, but they were professional and pretty much left everyone alone that was not acting a fool. Like someone mentioned in another thread, they wrote probably 6 times the tickets to the bass boaters and airboaters than the couple tickets our group got for the entire weekend.
Here is a good example of what many of us saw last weekend. I was standing next to a couple of sheriffs on top of the hill when I took this shot. Hot boat- idle speed past where dozens of boats were beached; weekend warrior, plowing as much water making as big of a wake as possible; Bass boater at about 25-30mph driving around one, cutting between the two, and almost hitting both. The bass boat got pulled over.
