[roadtripse]

Okay Weasel, what exactly is THAT you brought along to ride with us? Whatever it is, please keep it over THERE with you.

with his feet... I don't even want to know, WHO or WHAT was actually driving those two.

Make sure you grab the Donzi keys at the docks. Poodle already has our trailer hooked to his RV to assist us at the ramp. He is so helpful...

[roadtripse]

at WARP SPEED! (Sorry Dave, I had to do it)

Haha...it's all good. I had a blast, and the boat ran great (even if it was in the back of the pack!).

Hey Todd, I dedicate this icon to you. Sit Roger...good dog...

What a great weekend! I needed a little time away from the ordinary, and I think a lot of my fellow attendees did as well. It was great getting to know some of you guys better and sharing some great stories. My list of what I learned:

1. There is something special about East TN (especially A-Dock!)
2. Bushwackers are a good thing...in moderation
3. I brought the wrong pie
4. It's a good thing that I like the view of the back of a Donzi
5. I need a big boat (known that one for a while)
6. Most importantly: It feels really good to be the guy towing a boat rather than the guy being towed!

Had fun guys...let's do it again sooner rather than later.

All the best,
David

p.s. glad to be here

Thanks to all! The Donzi crowd and A Dock sure know how to host an event. The hospitality of A dock, Hedge, Tex, RT, and the rest of the gang was spectacular. It was great to meet Hedge (The Roamer is HUGE and beautiful!), Tex and his great family (The Pacemaker and neck flapping fast ZX are beautiful boats!), Jim and his super clean Critter is like a time capsule (It was great to meet the legend and chat about diesels and Donzi's), Stan and Susan (I look forward to meeting up on Lanier and chatting about your colorful racing history and seeing two teal 22's on Lanier! Good luck with your build.), Donzi Vol it was great to meet you and check out the 18, lookin' good!, Red Dog, it was great to meet you and what a nice 22! and did I mention I got to meet the Weasel! It was a pleasure and I hope you get your critter back together soon. Make sure you and the gang make it out here soon!

It was nice to see Randy and Barb (lookin' good Grizz with the killer smile! We need to have a Lanier run whenever you and Barb are ready!), Scott and Heidi (Scott, if you still have shirts, let me know and we can try to meet up Friday), Russ and Shelia (The silver bullet is lookin' great and was the only one with dry seats after lunch! hmmm), Todd and Jill (thanks for giving Kathy a ride to A Dock and the flower pot is just stunning! I need a ride next time! As for Tom and his sandbagging about Tomahawk, I guess I just have big shoes to fill).

Thanks to those we didn't mention as well. We had a great time! Chatt was a beautiful setting for a great run with great people, great food, and great boats. We look forward to next time...

Thanks for everything!
Jason & Kathy

Jason, as for filling the Tomahawk shoes, you have already done it!!! Like it or not you ARE part of the family!!! Now use that boat.

[Donziweasel]

Man, tough week. Wish I was back at ole A dock drinking a whacker.

Russ and Jason, it was nice to meet both of you and I wish I had had more time to hang out. Next time.

Stan, had a great time with you and Susan. Tell Susan we do have cattle drives in Jackson and she is more than welcome to come participate!!!

Grizz and Barbara, had a great time. Great to finally meet both of you. I always wondered if Grizz was married to someone who was more than his match. I can say he is now.

Jim, your Critter is amazing. Glad I got to burn some fuel with ya. I can honestly say that yours is probably nicer than mine, but not by much!!!

Scott, very nice to meet you finally. Thanks for the board, the t-shirts, and whatever the hell drinks you were making me. Tasty, but potent. Heidi is a great person and I really enjoyed talking with her.

Bryan and Bill, see ya this winter. We know where we stand.....

Finally, Tripper. The Flower Pot is amazing. Had a ball hanging out with you and Jill.

Critter isn't running again, bummer.
