Branson 6-7 to 6-10

#1 Post by curtiscapk » Wed May 02, 2018 7:07 am

Having a mini cousin's reunion for my wife's side June 7-11th. Anyone gonna be around? Not taking THE FLOATER but probably rent a jetski for a day. Staying in Family timeshare Grand Crowne Resort off the strip. Let me know if you'll be in the area?

Craig... I can't believe it... I'm going up there but will be headed back to Louisiana on June 1. Have to get back becuase we'll have our grandson with us and he has to be back by the 3rd for some things his parents have planned... missed it by "that much"...

Didn't want to haul THE FLOATER down for half day on the lake, so we're renting a 24' harris tritoon with a 150. Maybe the admiral will want to upgrade motors when we get back. :rofl :rofl :rofl

Craig... we're in Branson right now - brought our 5 year old grandson and he's having a blast.... spent yesterday at a relatives house.. it is right on table rock lake...deep lake, very clear.. spent the entire afternoon fishing and watching our little cooper playing in the lake ( yes he had a life jacket on the entire time )... earlier today we took him to "ride the ducks"... they take you out in one of those amphibious vehicles and out onto table rock.... i can tell you this... you can have a 40 year old pontoon boat with a 15 horse motor and it will be quicker and smoother that one of those duck boats... fyi, tour guide told us thier duck boats have 40 gallon fuel tanks... get about 6 miles to the gallon on the road, but only .6 ( yes, point six ) miles per gallon.... hahaha.... i'm not gonna bitch about outboards not getting good fuel ever again... but I'm about ready to get back home and get my toon wet for the first time this year. Have fun in Branson Craig..
