Man oh man! I really don't know where to begin with this. I have not been as closely involved as many of you guys have been since the beginning of this, other than listening to Mr. D Kid tell me about everyone and the plans. I was excited as hell, and as nervous as hell, to pull 900 miles to a place I'd never been to spend a weekend with people I didn't know. BUT as soon as we got there, the first people to greet us were Dan and Vallory, and I liked them instantly. Then WetDream, who I teased about wanting to know his "real" name, and I liked him right off as well! Then the list grew as more and more boaters arrived through Friday afternoon! And I liked everyone! Whew, what a relief that was! But to back up a bit, the first person I got to know was Nitro. We emailed, talked on the phone, etc. I think he is a good guy with good intentions. I'm not sure why, even though I've asked him outright, why he is so determined to leave this group and do "his own thing." But in the end, it does not really matter. If that is how he feels, I know you all agree with me, that it is too bad Anna was not as he had hoped. BUT it was the first time...live and learn...as awesome as it was, can you imagine what next year will bring?!?!?!? BUT only week later we all sit here in front of this little box in our homes, typing away, trying to express our feelings over all of it...tell me what is the first thing that comes to mind.....AWESOME, INCREDIBLE, ****IN' GREAT TIME and GREAT PEOPLE.......so let's keep that in mind, put these negative thoughts behind us, focus on upcoming events, wish everyone well, and go from there! As hard as we try, we can't make everyone happy. And all of this is ruining what was a long planned event by EVERYONE!!! Don't let that happen!!!! Just keep telling yourselves, WE ARE THE BEST! WHAT A ****IN' GREAT TIME! CAN'T WAIT TO DO IT AGAIN! As Mr. D Kid said, think of Big Daddy beating on his boat! Mrs. Fat Rat and her deathly windmill action! Rich waxing his boat and taping up Hot Rod so he doesn't spill his drink! Where is that damn frog?? Roger, does your boat not idle or something????? Oh, I see, yeah, it does sound good with that extra duration you get with a little foot action! WetDream SHOULD change his name to the Grillmeister! Sue and Helena needing their own little boat to gather up all the riff-raff for us! These are the memories I have and I DO NOT want them ruined by all this negativity! So come on guys....lets just drop it....ignore any further posts....and dream about upcoming times!
As Mr. D Kid says,
PEACE,
Mrs. Dimarco Kid
