Mike, <BR> <BR>We're flying down, and meeting up with our Buddy Scott. He moved to Vegas recently, and works at the MGM now. <BR> <BR>Scott has a boat, and Steve AZ and his buddy Chris are driving up from Az with his boat. Scott is going to talk to the Tige dealer down there to see if he's interested in meeting us at the lake as well.

<BR> <BR>OK I will keep ya posted I'm gonna try to make it with ya all, will see how the work load is. <BR> <BR>Thanks bro &amp; wishing ya all a GREAT NEW YEAR. <BR> <BR><a href="mailto:MIKE@WAKEON.COM">MIKE@WAKEON.COM</a>

I may be down... what dates? <BR> <BR><a href="mailto:keepitpunk@enemyofevil.com">keepitpun k@enemyofevil.com</a>

Where are you all staying? I might be up for towing my Tige' to Viva Las Vegas. It will be a little cold still, but what the hell. 2/27 and 2/28.

I'm down. Got the dates?

Guys, the dates are posted above!

Matt Dettman are you in for a little fun???

Hey Danny, Chris probably won't be able to make it, I'm thinkin I'll go up Friday morning and return Saturday night. Let me know if you're interested in a ride. <BR> <BR>Steve <BR> <BR>BTW, Matt, you wouldn't by chance have an extra spot on the lot that's secured for Friday night would ya<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>, I promise it'll play nicely with the Tige's<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>

This sounds like a good idea <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>

Steve there's room in my complex if nothing else works out, it's gated

can anybody pick 2 up from viva la beavis airport im thinking of trying to come for this my girlfriend is sleeping im just plotting the conspiracy now> it would be me and her i live in texas by the way

For anyone who didn't see the dates, they are Feb 27th and 28th. <BR> <BR>Scotty, <BR> <BR>where should we stay? on the strip, or near your place? <BR> <BR>Jonathan, <BR> <BR>Another boat would be great if your down.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Trav,Kara <BR> <BR>Are you guys in? <BR> <BR>Sean? <BR> <BR>Otis? <BR> <BR>Hahn? <BR> <BR>Brent?

I'll find out about a discount at the MGM if not it would be cheaper to stay out by me at one of the Station Casinos, and more convienent.

I'm still recovering from my trip 2 weeks ago out there. I was sick for a week when I got back, so I am probably out for that trip. Something about thinking I am still 21 and trying to pull all nighters just doesn't work anymore. Oh yeah, I'll be in Maui at that same time anyways. Sounds like fun! The Station Casinos are cool. I like the one out in Henderson.

Hmmmmmm...this sounds very tempting. If I towed the boat, would there be a safe place to park it? If not, would someone have room for one or two more?

hey westcoasters im down for coming if someone has room for 2 ill fly myself and my girlfriend there for the occasion. I would bring my boat but the haul from texass would be a beeotch so if someones got room and can stop by the airport let me know <BR> <BR> <BR>steven

Gee, that would be a nice birthday present from Trav. Hint, Hint!!! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>We most likely won't be able to make it. To much going on at that time. Would be nice to get away though!! <BR> <BR>(Message edited by wake_me on January 06, 2004)

Christie theres plenty of room at my apartment complex, lived here 3 months no issues with the boat.

Do you guys think you will be above the 100 degree combined rule?

Chris, <BR> <BR>from what I've been told, the water/air temps are about equal by early March. <BR> <BR>Up here in Seattle we have to go with the 80 degree rule, if we want to ride in the winter. I see Christie's group is in the same predicament as far as inclement weather riding. Unless it's pouring down rain or white caps, we're riding .<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Christie, <BR> <BR>I talked to Steve Jenkins yesterday. He mentioned Chris and Leslie. Maybe you could get them to come as well.

I'm going to come if forecast for air is 70 or better. Sometimes End of Feb early Mar reach into the 80's. Water will probabaly be low 50's. <BR> <BR>Anyone in So CA that wants to go and can contribute to truck and boat gas, drop me a line. I can Camp or hotel. I have complete camping gear and would rather camp but will go with the flow. <BR> <BR>Steve Az- If I can make it, first round is on me.

Bump

There's little doubt you'd be over the 100 degree rule. I live about 75 miles away from lake Mead. keeep in touch, I'd be willing to come down to board. The water temp will likely be 50's or better. Air temp today is going to be 60 degrees. If you dress right, it's very comfy. Send me a reminder as it gets closer and I'll see if i can come (with my Tige 21V).

The only problem I see on my end is I am going to be in Vegas the weekend before for a wedding. It would be a quick turn around, wish I could stay the week. But let me talk to my crew and see if I can ralley them up. I am sure I will have room for a couple people when I get there. I can probably get 2 or 3 people to go.

Talltigeguy, <BR> <BR>We'll definitely get a hold of you as the dates draw closer. <BR> <BR>Jonathan, <BR> <BR>If your like me, you'll be such a pest to your friends, that they'll commit just to shut you up.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>

Pest really isn't the best word to use..... maybe a$$ clown works a little better!!!!!!!!!!

DATES!!!!

Chris, <BR> <BR>Dude, dates are in the post header "Bro".<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Feb 27th and 28th.

I'd like to see how Frenchie's 22 IR compares to the V-drive.

Looking forward to it Mr. Neelley! <BR> <BR>Cramey, quit pussyfootin' around and COMMIT, Zee too!<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/blush.gif" border=0>

VEGAS, VEGAS, VEGAS!!! <BR> <BR>Christie, <BR> <BR>You have to go. Who will hook us up with jello shots and stylie face plants if you don't?<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/talker.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Chris, and Zee, <BR> <BR>The force is strong. You can't deny the "Dark Side".<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Sean, and Ottis, <BR> <BR>What's up? <BR> <BR>Hahn, <BR> <BR>And I thought you were "Money"<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR> Vegas, and wakeboarding, it just don't get better than that people<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>. <BR>

Bump

Ok, <BR> <BR>For anyone interested in this trip, we will be staying off the strip in Henderson at Sunset Station Casino. The hotel is very nice, with very reasonable rates, and is located mid point from the lake and the strip. <BR> <BR>For those who want to bring their boats, Scott has a large secured area that will accomidate as many spaces as needed at his condo about a mile away from the hotel.

Steve, <BR>sorry, havn't checked the post in a while. Yeah I'm down to carpool if that's what you ment. I'm from Vegas so I have a lot of friends that I will be able to stay with. I'll probably bring my girl to. Let me know.

I'm down.

Steve from Texas-- Maybe we could split rental car expenses or something. Maybe if there were two of us we could get someone to pick us up if we flew in at the same time. <BR> <BR>Cliff are you renting a car? When are you flying in? <BR> <BR>I could be game for this if I am all studied up for my exams. <BR>I may get into trouble BUT it will be fun trouble. <BR>What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Isn't that what guys always say? hehe<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/blush.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>B

I am bummed, can't make it "this time" daughters birthday is on March 1st, and the party is that Saturday. But I will make it for the next one for sure!!

id be down to rent a car and pay for what ever im just down to go to vegas period for gambling or boarding. im able to fly wherever whenever. My mom works for american airlines so i have the benefit. if youd like to work something out let me know.

steven and butterfly, <BR> <BR>my girlfriend and i will be coming out for this shinding (from l.a.), and thinking of flying, tho we may just drive out. if we do fly, we will also need a way to get out to the lake from vegas. perhaps we could all go in on a car. <BR> <BR>

Chris, <BR> <BR>check your e-mail. <BR> <BR>Three weeks and counting people.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0>

Flight and hotel reservations are set…. Brad and I will be flying in on Thursday night. <BR> <BR>Scotty D… make sure you order up some butta and warm weather for us. It will sure be nice to ride with out needing gloves for a change! <BR> <BR>Looks like it’s shaping up to be a good tip. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0> Can't wait! <BR>

Everything is set for me as well. I'm driving out Friday morning with the boat and plan on leaving Monday morning. <BR> <BR>It will be nice to put some more faces with names! Looking forward to meeting you all and seeing some old friends again. Three weeks cannot come soon enough!

I stayed at Henderson Station and they were good at watching my boat for me. And you can park and see it easy.

I might be down to go and meet up, but I would definitely need to mooch a ride.

Were are you guys launching at. I will be there for the weekend, and it sounds like fun.

Weather has been a little cold this week, but so is everywhere else. Water temp is 50', water level is low, but it's a big lake. <BR>Cheryl will launch at the Lake Mead Marina, the 2nd launch after you enter the state park off Lake Mead Drive

Anyone in So CA interested in sharing fuel costs for truck and boat and want to camp let me know.

How about a head count to date. Who all is in for sure?

I'm about %85 likely to be there, but I'll want to launch from Overton OR Echo bay marinas (on the North). I'll be there on Saturday only. <BR>

I wanna go but I need a crew to help with gas $ for boat and van!!!! Anyone in So. CA that wants me to drive and bring bring my boat for them to glory hog behind (2002 V210, ballast, Perfect Pass) shoot me an email. <BR> <BR>I will hopefully be staying here- <BR><a href="http://www.riverlakes.com/boulder_beach_campground.htm" target="_blank">http://www.riverlakes.com/boulder_beach_campground.htm</a> <BR> <BR>If that doesn't work out, anyone got room for me and my 6 year old son in there boat?

Any thought to going out of Calville and then through the narrows to the overton arm? In case of high winds.
