Wow, I almost missed the thread since I was looking for "3rd Annual Great Southeastern Epic Roundup"!!! Pete is a man of few words...
I agree with Les, thanks for getting the pictures posted so fast. I just downloaded some pics and will either post them or, more likely, save myself the pain and aggravation of learning a new task by emailing them to Les to post. They are of you guys wakeboarding. Some of the more impressive pics were, unfortunalety, very blurry so they got deleted. I had one of Bullet so high that the only thing that showed was his hand grabbing the bottom of the board.
The event was a blast. Even the little issues such as having the waitress sing Happy Birthday to Les (you had to be there-she was definitely from Fair Play) to the drunk trying to expalin that the ramp was closed and giving directions to an alternative ramp while falling off his float were fun. Of course, minor things such as Breakaway plug diving to taking Pete a jump box so he could launch his boat to having to buy cheap hot dogs at the hardware store were taken in stride. Having the guy walk up to us on the island and ask if we were a group of Toyota boat dealers was the BEST. I admit that I was slightly embararessed when a few of you thanked me for hosting the event - if I knew I was hosting it, I would have done a better job!!! The real host was Breakawaydaze. Hats off (MarineEpic.com hats) to him for all of the goodies he brought for us and our boats.
Next year we MUST do this on a weekday - no excuses. Hector, go ahead and tell your boss you will be sick so he can plan his schedule accordingly. We now expect Slalom 21 to be there! Breakaway, your job ius to get Lescores and Skibeau there since they are both close to you. Whoever is the cloest to Charlotte (crap, that's me) has to be sure RSatterfield attends. Is it over the top to think that we can get 10 Epics in one spot???
