Charlie,

I really admire the fact that you are so willing to help people and end up turning the wrench every time that we all get together. To some its no big deal because its our hobby and passion but you do it everyday, you take care of your personal hot rods & projects, and then save a bunch of people from having to go home early at what is intended to be your "time to get away and relax". You are a good guy and its shows every time that one of us is in need.

As always-Tom, Gina, and the entire crew are great fun to be around and the hospitality given is second to none. Thank you all-Marcie, Kory, and I had an excellent weekend.

Anyone hit any of the many logs I saw floating?

**madtunnel** · 03-06-2016, 08:59 PM

Yeah one of the Jacksonville guys hit one.

I did over 110 miles yesterday. There's some scuffs on the bottom of the boat but prop and case are unscathed. A friend broke a wheel yesterday and broke another and bent a shaft today. Cost of a couple hundred miles.

Thanks again Tom and Gina!

Indeed. Charlie was a great help on Thursday night. Glad I was able to have trouble free running the rest of the weekend.

Great weekend and we ended it with a trip over to the silver river where we were greeted by a pack of wild monkeys.

What an awesome event! I'm getting situated here and I finally have all the photos backed up and I'm going through them now. Everybody was so cool and it was an amazing experience. I owe a huge thanks to Mark and Janna, and of course Tom and Gina, and everybody else I was able to talk to. The party was also amazing! I just wanted to make a quick post to say that I will be posting up photos during the day and tonight. Thank you everybody for a awesome event and it's always great talking to so many of you.

Thank you everybody!

Mark got hungry during the shoot, so he 'picked up' a little snack along the way

Who was the guy in the little boat (Allison maybe) with the V4 up at the split on Saturday?
I was going to run next to him headed back south but he was very busy driving the **** out of that thing LOL.

**obrien** · 03-07-2016, 11:21 PM

I had a great time and wish I could have stayed for the cookout. I had a blast running back down the river with a pair of Allison's. One had a 300x and the other a 225x if I remember correctly

Was it this guy? I thought this might have been a Baja. You're right - he was really working that boat! Really cool boat!

Chris, I was hoping you would make several passes for me, but I still got ya

On the batch-upload of images, Lightroom's conversion and compression to JPEG seems to have added a slight yellow cast to the images, which I am correcting. I expected there to be some color information lost due to the JPEG compression but I didn't think it would alter the white balance.
