got up early this morning to go offshore

[John Jones]

We went to the Waffle House instead.  Weathermen suck. :cry:

JJ,
70% forecast here today...waffle's are good...

[pete]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,waffles!!!

[GoneFission]

Did you play the Waffle House Polka on the jukebox?    

[gran398]

Did you go to the one that Tiger's friend works at?

[John Jones]

I've never seen a Waffle House employee that I would allow to turn my crank.

How many WH stores in Wilmington?  I remember reading 25 years ago that Charlotte had 40 something.  Should be double that by now.

[gran398]

I reckon we have eight or ten.

I like the "cheesy eggs" with raisin toast.

 

Remember we were talking about Lionel trains? I was just watching Roadshow from Wisconsin....a guy had a Lionel/Mickey Mouse/Disney circus train, with box, and cardboard circus tent, circa 1930.....

Five cars.....the expert went bonkers over the tent, said he had never seen one, they usually were thrown away with the other trash on Christmas morning.....he valued it at 12 to 15K.

[John Jones]

Maybe I had better dig out the kids trains and do a little research.

Did the same.  Got one mile out of Hurricane pass and started cursing the weatherman.  2 ft seas my a$$.  Suppose to be 10knots out of SW. Was more like 15 out of the north (at 6:45am).  made the best of it...came it, swapped boats and fished inside for trout all afternoon.

Exactly.  I should have put the flats boat in after lunch.  The bay was like glass.  The urge to take a nap overcame the urge to fish.

So I'm coming into Tampa this morn on the Suncoast/Veterans, hit Erlich, and the skies ABSOLUTELY EFFIN' OPENED UP!!!!!!!  All the way out on West Hillsborough by the river!  Got to the guys house and had to call him from his driveway!  "I'm here, but there is no way I can get out of my car..."

Haven't seen rain like that since the hurricanes of '04...and I wasn't out in them!

JJ, down in your neck of the woods yesterday, Gibsonton, 2005 WC 252 Coastal, stolen boat, completely, and I mean COMPLETELY stripped, total rewire.  Looks like I've got another job from fabuck (Alex) wiring his console down in Apollo Beach...

[John Jones]

My yard is so squishy I doubt I could get my boat out today.

Cool.  Let me know when you are in Gibsonton or Apollo Beach.  I could run up for lunch one day if I'm in town.

[seabob4]

JJ,
Have a feeling that lunch could turn into dinner, could turn into many beers downed, could turn into, "Maggie, I be home in the morning..."

[John Jones]

I'm sure we could find something to talk about.

I'm sure we could find something to talk about.

To say the least...
