Any of you DFW guys going to be around during the holidays?

Don't know if I'll have time but I'll be in Denton from Wednesday afternoon until Saturday morning. Thought if I got free I might come by and say hey.

Doug

How about we meet at Eagle Mountain Marina and go sailing together.

Looks like we have at least 7 Cat 25's in the area. Three at Eagle Mountain, 2 at Arlington and 2 at Ray Hubbard. When we were shopping for a sailboat I think I there was one at Ray Roberts in Denton.

Gary, if we can get together can you bring some photos of your A frame system?

I'll be at my brother's house for Thanksgiving.....he lives on a cliff overlooking Harbor One marina on Eagle Mountain.

We typically do a big family lunch then sit around and watch the Cowboy game.... but I'm not (gasp!) a football fan so I don't care about the game. Now don't freak out and question my Man Card....I'm a hockey nutball....I was Stars season ticket holder for 10 years....I get Center Ice on Direct TV....subscribe to Hockey News. I'm starting to take an interest in my local team, the Texas Brahmas....they play only a couple miles from my house! Professional hockey I can walk to!! It's awesome and going to a game is like stepping into the movie Slapshot.

Sorry....I get sidetracked....anyway, my point is....I'll be out at the lake Thursday just don't know exactly when I'll be free yet.

Hi to all, I would be glad to get together on Friday. Scott I am afraid that if I tried to escape on Thursday, I would be shot and then hung by the neck until dead.

I'd definitely like to get together but I'll have to play it by ear right up until the last minute.

I haven't been up to visit my wife's family in almost a year so I'm at the mercy of my wife over Thanksgiving. She kind of inidicated she didn't have a problem with it(she's awesome about things) but we will see how it goes. I'll have my laptop so I can stay in touch.

I'll try to get some pictures of the A-Frame and either post here or I'll bring them with me.

Sorry guys, just got home a few minutes ago. I never had a spare minute to even check to see if you guys were going to get together. Turns out her mom had some possibly serious electrical issues at the house so I spent most of yesterday trouble shooting and reparing those issues.

I really wanted to get together and meet some new friends face to face.

We're talking about maybe coming back up between Christmas and New Years. If we do I should have more time to socialize.
