09-21-2009 09:34 AMThe run back up was great,,, It was fun running behind them and wake jumping
...it was nice to finally meet Rob and Barb. the Chesapeake has some of the best boating in the world in my opinion, the best of everything.

09-21-2009 08:58 PMDave, glad you enjoyed the ride! It was our pleasure.
Ted, gracious, gracious host........we can't say enough, but thank you....again....for everything.
Rob (offshoredrillin), thanks for showing us the bay and Choptank River. When we've talked to our peeps back home, we told them they need to boat in the area. By far our best boating experience to a new area (better than 1000 Islands and I thought nothing would beat that).
Craig/Nancy, what can we say! You guys are a blast. We might just have to drive over and spend a weekend next summer...on your boat.
Dirty Stecz......it's all true people...everything you read....everything you hear.....it was our first time meeting him. What an impression. We hope it isn't the last time we get to meet. (Little Bunny says
)
If it wasn't for Chris, we would have never given thought to doing this run. Thanks for the pit passes, the help with launching and a million other thanks for the things you did to make ours and our friends weekend one we will never forget.
Boating..............it's all about the people.Queen of Bammin'
