Holy Mother of Ass...I am getting OLD!!
Well goddamn that was a KICK ASS weekend!!!! I got into Tampa at about 11:20 am on Friday and my buddy Brett was waiting for me at the baggage area, Gordon then swung by, we threw our bags in the car and headed to his house. In the afternoon we hung out in the pool and had our share of beers. We went out to eat for dinner at some place on the beach and got all rowdy and crazy. Went back to the house that night and Ray and Max showed up at about 9-10pm. We just kept hanging out drinking and swimming....a delightful combination.
Saturday morning we got up early at like 6-6:30 am....somehow. We headed over to the marina and boarded the Daisy Mae and casted off at about 7:15. I think we headed out about 15 miles offshore or something like that. There we were out in the Gulf, no land in sight, coolers full of beer and it was about 85 degrees at 8am! We caught about 32 Spanish Mackerel throughout the morning. Talk about having a friggin blast!!!! The coolest part was we never had to touch a fish....the dude on the boat took care of everything. He was pretty cool and was making fun of us when we caught smaller fish or did anything stupid....which was pretty often. We asked if he ever had anyone fall off the boat or lose a pole in the water and he said no so I thought about falling off the side of the boat holding a fishing pole but decided not to....didn't want them to kick us off and cut the trip short or anything. Anyway we got back to the marina at about noon. We went over to Hooters, the greatest beacon of capitalism in the free world and had a nice lunch. Back to the house for pool, naps, etc. Then bar-hopping Sat night.
Anyway, it was a great time and now I am exhausted. I didn't even drink that much but the combination of staying up late, not getting much sleep, spending the day on a boat in the sun, etc just wore my skinny ass out! I will try and get some pictures up when I have time....there are some killer photos. Anyways, hope everyone else had a good weekend as well.

Sounds like you had a good time. How are those guys, anyway? Haven't heard you talk about them in ages. Were they all at the reunion too?
Um, Hooters? Barf... Those nasty panthyhose they wear are nauseating. And the shorts are much to look at either. There's a place here called the Tilted Kilt that has the girls dressed up in like naughty irish schoolgirls or something... They have monday night football, beer specials, and half naked women so I hear it's a happening place. Won't go there myself but to each his own.
We were in Panama City this weekend and it was freaking HOT. Austin was nice and cool when we came home. Go figure.
Yea I am a HUGE Hooters fan. The one we went to was THE Original in Clearwater. Crappy service and rude chicks though.....very disappointing. Usually they kick ass though.
Yeah all those guys were at the reunion. Brett works for Gulfstream Aircraft in Savannah, GA; Gordo works out of his house in Tampa; Max is a VP at Salomon Smith Barney in Atlanta; Ray is a Major in San Antonio, TX for the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Yeah FL was really hot. I don't know how anyone could live down there all year in that crap. But yeah it was a great time....we're all going to Brett's house in Savannah for St Pat's Day in March. Should be fun!
