Still alive and still with the 268. Have been very busy with all that life throws at ya.

Leaving for MI, this weekend ... can't drag the boat along as I'll be remodelling my mother-in-law's kitchen & bath for a week, then back home. Next is our open house at work (Bavarian Autosport Show & Shine), then off to CA for Son #1's wedding. We may not be able to get a decent extended boat trip in this year. For now, the 268 is living as a big cuddy cabin.

Hey Gordon!
Good to hear your still alive and well! Just by looking at your hobbies/projects (victorian house/race cars/boating) I'm sure it's hard to find time to sqeeze it all in. Have you had a chance to do much boating this year? Ben

You say that every time I'm gone for a bit, Mike. Even though I'm not regularly around ... I actually think about you guys too.

We'd love to do the trip you did, Ben, up the western coast.

We'll be in MI next week. I'll be remodeling my mother-in-law's kitchen and bath. We really wanted to drag the boat along, but I will be needing to work full-time for the week, to get it done. We'll then be getting ready for our open house, here at work (Bavarian Autosport Show & Shine), for Oct. 2. Then we have Son #1's wedding out in CA.

I dunno if we will have time for an extended boating trip this year. So far, the 268 is serving as a big cuddy cabin and water sports platform for this year

I've got an idea.....to make up for your lack of boating this year how about you trailer your 268 to the west coast of Michigan next summer and we will meet you outside your old stomping grounds at Pyramid Point :D
