Late posting here due to economy, job pressures, and SWINE FLU. I think I may have it. I ate some sweet tasting "Buddy's BBQ" on Saturday. They sold me the whole frekin' pig. Our crew at it all and I now have gained 4 lbs.

The water temp went from 68 to 77 in one day. This is just top water temp and it was back to 72 on Tuesday but still a great improvement from the March 58 degree temps.

CNN has just reported that people in Texas are sending all of the pigs to Mexico to get rid of the Swine Flu.

Two more weeks and I will be strapping on the wakeboard and getting hurt.

I am hitting the TEI convention tomorrow with 100 CPA's and attorneys. I am sure they will all need to see Americanwakesurfer.com. The law has changed and I don't mean the tax law. Ride to live.

I am out -------

I was able to pull two good days this weekend. Friday evening session with Wilson was spectacular, glass for miles, no boats or hillbillies anywhere. It approached 76 degress and the water was up to 66 maybe 67. My wetsuit has been sent back to the locker. Shrinkage factor is down to bearable.

Saturday had some partey action until late afternoon. Hit it for a good 2-3 mile run. Again - mostly glass but a little rare Melton Hill wind added a lettle chop in the valley.

It is all good. Back to work at 8:00 tomorrow. Lame -

We hit every fortune 1000 company in Franklin, TN today and they all wanted boards not software!! I am in the wrong business. 70+ coming this weekend. Just getting ready. Using the stairs at hotel and only drinking the low carb beer. I am an athalete and I must train daily.

Over a foot of powder on Mt. LeCounte Tuesday. New boards from Uncle R. arrived Wednesday and we tried the short fatty out Thursday. Forgot the wetsuit and had to go naked, The early week snow and cold brought the water temp down a few degrees but dooable at 59-61 in the back of skicove.

Uncle R. took his first set of the year on his new short board. Did pretty good for an old man.

78 degrees, Flat water, Friends and crew. Old fat guy can still do it.
