Default August 25th and 26th

So....if some of you had your plans cancelled for the 25th and 26th weekend, perhaps you'd like to do a little fun shoot? I have a friend coming in from out of town and I was planning on taking him to my favorite spot on the DesPlaines. Anyone and everyone is welcome to meet me at my house and follow me there. Friday night barbecue at my place and then shoot that night, daytime shoot on Saturday, nighttime shoot on Saturday, they all work for me. I can't offer rooms to stay but can offer ground space for campers and tents. It's a great area to shoot and I always put over 50 fish in the boat.

Hey partner, I'd like to join you, but I don't have lights on Christine's canoe yet, so I'd have to go in the daytime. And I'm always up for free food!!

Come down Saturday afternoon and we'll go out then Steve. I'd even have room in my boat for a third during the day without the generator in there, so you wouldn't have to bring the canoe. We'll grill out and then hit it again Saturday night if people want to.

It's hard to pass up bowfishing that's just 30 mins from me.
I think I'm free, even though I'm going to do a 3-D shoot that weekend.
Not sure about the stay over, but I'm pretty sure I can shoot.

I'll mooch some of your deck space if it is still available.
I've been dying to see where thisspot is.

Thanks for the offer Mark. I just talked to my honey, and she's working that saturday, so I can fish day or night. Let me know what time to show up. I'll call a day or two before and see if you need me to bring anything.
I'll be sure to bring the camera. Maybe we can get some video to post here to show everyone how good your spot is. (I just won't show how to get there!)

Yikes, I hope we find some fish then! I'm afraid I'm running out of boat space, and we need boats for this area. We'll have to talk about who's doing what before this is all set in stone. But I'm thinking of maybe meeting around noon and doing an afternoon shoot. Barbecue/campfire afterwards at my place?

That sounds good Mark.

Cheesehead was talking about coming down oneof these weekends.
Maybe she can make it too, with her boat.

Cheeshead won't be making it, but I'll be there.

Hope for good weather.
