pillsburry pics

just wanted to see some pics from this last weekend up at pillsburry. being down in here in san diego, really makes us miss our old lake.

Hey Shawn,There are about 25 from Pillsbury on this link http://www.wakepics.com/media.php?searchstr=user:2613&trick=Any&type=Any&t ime=1086143415&search=search&limit=10 I was up last weekend and I'm going back up for a week on the 4th of July. I can't wait.

I was expecting the Dough Boy. I have to say, I'm a bit disappointed.

No dough...just Butter

Shawn, This past weekend was the most crowded I've ever seen Pillsbury
But We hit the water early and got some decent water

walt, do you have any pics from this last weekend, was the v-ball court set up? i also noticed you ride with sean edwards, great guy, when you see him again, tell him i say hello. thanks.

Shawn, I went up Rice Fork (Split Rock) but the water was so high they must of set it up on the Eel fork....Thats what they did last year.
The Pics that I posted Yesterday on wakepics.com were from this last weekend. I didn't get to take as many pics as I would of liked. I had a boat full of Kids that kept Me busy.
I ride with Shawn E every week so I will tell Him You said hello.

Darnell, Shawn was telling Me that You go up to Pillsbury every 4th of July...Are You going this year ?

walt, not this year my friend, we have to go to a wedding the following weekend, so we can't male it. from some of the pics you posted, it looks like you stay at west shore, there are some great people over in those sites. i used to go up almost every weekend befor i moved down to san diego, it is the best kept secret.

West Shore it is ! We have a bunch of friends there and were hoping to buy a camp.
Shawn was telling Me that Your boat has a sick stereo !
So who do You know in West Shore ?

i don't know if you remember back about a year and a half ago. grant posted some pics of a stereo under "monster stereos" and it had a box in the back with eight 12" subs and a tower box with 4 8" seperates in it, that is mine. but anyways, i know the barbiary's (sorry if their name is spelled wrong) and most of that crew. i knew them from when they used to have cabins across the lake. we all grew up at pillsbury.

They have the camp right by the ramp right ?
How about Mark and Debbie Heald ?

Here is a pic of My friend Jim's camp. #80

those names don't ring a bell, but i love the pic, really makes me want to go up there. i remember seeing your friend rich's sanger up there, is he part of the west shore group?

No but I went to Fuller grove with Rich and Shawn a few weeks back.

Shawn, Have You ever gone to Tom & Joanne Tillits 4th of July Party ?

Hey you guys...

Is Pillsbury off of HWY 20? I thought it was a few miles of dirt road to get up there? I haven't been up that way in years!!!

Thats it. The (dirt road) road to butter is about 10 miles long.

Shawn,we used to go all the time,about 4 or 5 times a year.Going again in August for a week,I hope.We would always stay at the L.P.Resort,on the point.

Brandon, Thats a great profile pic ! Is that Bullards ?

Hey Walt, How is the (dirt) road? Is it washboarded? It get's pretty dusty I assume, so you tow your boat up with a cover right?

I'm thinking about camping up there this summer. Hense, all the questions.

Thanks!!

The county road is in really great shape right now But the logging road is NFG due to a slide.

When I take My boat I put the cover on and then a tarp over that with a bunch of bungy's...It seems to work really well. And yes it's really dusty like always.

Let Me know when Your going and I can probably get a report on the road for You.

Hey thanks for the info!!! May see you on the water sometime!!!

BTW..my profile pic was taken @ Shasta '03. That's the butter you get every morning while houseboating for a week!!! Heaven...

rich, that's where we stay too, LPR. new owners last year, from what i hear, they made a bad impressin on everyone. we have a group of a 100 or so that stay at the resort for the 4th of july, what are the weekends that you used to go up there?

walt, i am sure i have been to their party, it's the one where they have the big stage, right? if so, they throw a great party.

Thats it but they shut them down two years ago...So now they do a unpluged thing at Skips camp.

A few more pics http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/168318.html

Memorial,end of June,4th of July,first week of August,and Labor day.Used to be about 3 to 4 families with us.We always stayed at the coveted point.Best damn site up there.To bad we can't get it now.New owners are different,but more organized.Twice we had to argue with someone else over our campsite.
We've skipped about 2 years in a row,but started again last year with first week of August.Doing it again this year.

We should get a WakeWorld trip together.

Is this one of those old skool,closed bows only things?
If it is,I'm in.

rich, those are the exact same weeks we would go, we must have crossed paths many of times. my family had a 95 sanger dxll, dark teal, closed bow, if that rings a bell. we quit going to lpr after my dad died in 99, but i started going back up there summer of 2002.

rich, a trip sounds great, but can a toyota owner hang out with you closed bow guys?

I seen it.I think 02 was my last summer there til last year.

Hell yes!
If your gonna drive all the way up,they'll be a spot for you.
