Just returned from the most awful vacation of my life. Had our brand new Tundra, packed with half our life as we were out to camp for most of a month and which we use to pull our camping trailer, stolen in Montreal and now can't get any movement from the police up there to get a report sent to the insurance company.
NEVER go to Montreal or Quebec City is my advice. It's not what it used to be 30 years ago; believe me. What a nightmare. Talk about "
reality coming through the windows!" But, I digress...
Skimmed through the posts here today. Have to agree with Pepper. Sounds like we need a new vote started. Sept. 30th in Alton Bay sounds perfect to me. There is shelter available if rain (but, gosh, how likely is that?
). There is both land access and water access with plenty of boat docking that time of year.
Would a new vote including Sept. 30th and which place to have it be appropriate? Could you start that up, Don? Also, I still think a contribution to St. Baldrick's with just a big, fat cookie jar, would be great.
Or, just for fun, we could have a bidding auction of some sort. It might be fun to get some sponsors. I'm betting Alan and the people at Patrick's Pub would help with that; perhaps the folks at Laconia Airport would donate a scenic flight, and perhaps some of the restaurants, like Canoe, that have had some good coverage in the Restaurant forum might be willing, and maybe Rusty's group and others could through something in. I'd be willing to do some soliciting once I get my life back in order (or at least as much as possible). I am never in favor of Poker Runs; you all know not to get me started on my feelings about speed on the Lake!
