If it's anything like the Public ramp at the end of Old Wormly Creek Rd be forewarned, you can only launch and recover at high tide. You ain't coming back in at low tide.

Heck, I don't think the Marines could land there at low tide.

Pony, I'll try to remember to ask tomorrow. I am not sure. But when I do decide to go, you are welcome to come along with me and my son. I should be going sometime soon......I hope.

Raoul, yep, it used to be hell, but if you have a small boat, you are ok. They dredged it out awhile back. They get those 41's in and out of there all day long.

Randall,

Much appreciated sir! I stay busy most all the time, but I make every exception that I can for fishing. Hunting and range trips are in there too.

When you call, ask for "Ed" I spoke with him and (if I recall correctly) he charges $65 for three pulls without any tuning on his part. In the spring, he opens the dyno on Saturdays.

Thanks, It pulls pretty good too. I still need to get ed to remove the speed limiter. We're going to change the injectors also. Guy on the s/c board is pulling 427 hp with a smaller pully! Ithink I'll stick with 8 pounds of boost and keep things intact.

Good LORD! I'd love one but can't justify it now, not even to myself.

Where'd everyone go? I imagine that Raoul is trying to revive his goats after dying them red white and blue for the updoming 4th of July celebrations. I told him that you didn't need the whole goat submersed in the dye solution. What does one do to celebrate with a goat anyway?

I'll be at Yorktown on the 4th for the Parade.
I'm not in it, I just salute the Flag and the Troops. (and the Cub Scouts and the Brownies)

It occured to me that many of us probably pass each other on the road everyday.

I probably pass a few here in Norfolk and VA beach area and don't even know it. I've thought about it before but I can't memorize everyones ride from their galelry to notice them on the road. Do you carry a guard goat with you in your truck? I could remember that.

As a matter of fact I am sometimes sporting wooden rails.
Don't see that too often.

They look good. Did you buy them or make them? If I ever see you I'll get real close to your bumper and home my horn while flashing my high beams. If anyone ever does that it must be me.

Naw, we hate each other.
We don't hate you because you are in South Carolina.
Even if you came to North Carolina we still wouldn't hate you but, you would be severely disliked.
