My question is this...did Joe start making the Devil's Tower out of his mashed potatoes? LOL!!!

Cool *** trip, Joe! I'm envious. I haven't really been to that part of the country as of yet and would love to take pics if I ever get to go there!

Morning all,

YEAH.....It's Saturday!!!!

We're going to Lahontan again today to try the sailboard again & just enjoy some fun in the sun. I'll take pictures this time. I forgot the camera yesterday. It wouldn't have mattered though. I was in the water trying to help the kids with the sailboard. That stupid sail is fricken' heavy when it's wet!!! I think we need a smaller board/sail or maybe I just need someone to set it up properly so the sail vs. weight thing is right. I know there's a sail adjustment, but I don't know where it has to be, so I just left it were it was when I got it. LOL! Leave it to a woman, right?

Who wants to come out & play in the water? Come on...ya know ya want too!!! WOOHOO...water fight!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Yah, I was hoping to look at the boat yesterday, but the lady never emailed me back before we left for Lahontan. Hopefully today, since she finally emailed me her address /directions last night.
I also had an email from a guy wanting to trade the car straight across for his 87 Kawasaki Ninja 750! Hmm... Ninja or a Bayliner(needs some apholstery work)??? I also found out that GSXR needs a head gasket. Plus, they wanted the car + cash for it! So much for that trade.

Trying to sailboard at Lahontan

Hey everyone,

Well,we got back from the lake & downloaded the pics/movies. It was easier today, than yesterday & funner too! I did actually manage to sail about 10' by myself before I fell. But, boy was it a blast!

Here's some pictures...

Welcome to FTE and the Nevada Chapter Sunnshhinecrime. Now that's a mouthful for my fingers

Hello everyone. I can't say good morning today. I just checked my inbox and noticed that there is an unusual amount of officer down notices for the past two weeks. My prayers go out to those who gave their lives or were injured in the line of duty or during training to protect us on the streets. Along with their families. That includes the Firefighters, EMS, and Military as well. Thank you all for your service The next beer is in your memory

Joe and Donna, looks like y'all had fun. Wish I could have joined you. But I am gearing up for my hunting trip.

Have fun everyone, but stay safe.

Goodmorning everyone & welcome to FTE & the NV BS thread Sunshinecrime!

I hope you all have a very blessed Sunday!

Dave, Jim, & Jeff - Man O' man, you should have been there with us. It was so much fun! Ofcourse we all got a little sunburned, but not nearly as bad as last month. Wish you could have joined us!

We did have a chance to drive by & look at the Bayliner Capri yesterday. It doesn't look too bad from the street! Ofcourse the paint is faded, but that can be buffed out. I emailed the lady to set up a appt. to look at it this morning around 10, but she hasn't gotten back to me. I'm also supposed to talk with the guy that wants to trade his Ninja too! So, depending on how the oat looks/runs...I'll make my decision from there. I really want the bike though, like really bad! It's probably too big for me though. I don't know. BUT, I also want the boat so we can water ski & go tubing.
GRR, I can't make up my mind! Which one would you choose?

Ok, well enough on that subject. Have a great day whatever you do &have fun doing it!

Jarod- What, where, and what are you using to hunt? I've always wanted to go. My buddy and I are actually going to the hunter safety course this coming Saturday so we can get our license.

Olfthfl- How big is the Ninja? 250? I'm looking into getting a bike as well and the Ninja 250 is supposed to be one of the best beginner bikes.

Good morning everyone else.
