He is asking the captain and getting back with me tomorrow.

Last time we did a sunset cruise and it was perfect, allowed everyone to do their respective runs and get back to the lodge in time to relax a little then go for a cruise. I am going to go over this at the driver's meeting and those who wish to go can speak with me then. It is about an hour long, coolers are welcomed, and it is a great time.

The only way to get on the boat is to talk to me

last time people were upset they were unable to go, but there is only so much room on the boat, and I did not appreciate some people's attitudes who were unable to go. I do this because Molly and I want to go, if I can help others, great, but it is not worth the trouble to be yelled at for trying to help someone so this is totally FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED of those who speak with me, and I will be keep a list.
This is a very nice activity for Saturday evening! Thanks for coordinating this event for the weekend.

I cannot find where the maps are posted. I am tied up in Knoxville until the morning but would like to meet up and possibly get some of that good BBQ.

Any chance someone could could provide a link to the maps or time tables or meet up spots?

I lucked out last year and met the Devil's Triangle group by chance.

I will be back in late tonight and will check for a PM.

Hope to see you all.

Hospital! I knew you were sick but Jeeez. I must of missed an update somewhere. When you said stay in your room I thought you meant hotel room. I hope they can let you go today as well.

I have a couple of panoramic group shots posted in my albums. They do nothing to capture the specialness of the day but do feature are a long line of Crossfires in each.

Should anyone desire a copy just provide an email address by PM and it will be yours.

I'm home and safe. Time to clean the car up and find some new tires. Had loads of fun with the new members, and some of the more senior members. Ran the dragon 4 times. Once for Mark, Once for Jim, Once for Shawn, and Once for the hell of it. LOL

We are back at the lodge for the night just hanging out together and sharing photos from the weekend
