The conference ends Oct 27, generally around noon. I will IM you and the others as time gets closer to see what we might set up. 8) 8) 8)

I ain't much of a tv camera man, but I kin drive a boat pretty good. What's the pay?

Fla._Deadheader · May 21, 2004, 04:30:19 PM

We pay strictly on commission. IF we get the gig, everyone gets a %. ;D ;D

Rocky_J · May 21, 2004, 04:46:13 PM

Quote We are North of Orlando, about 40 miles or so.

So, you aren't in Vero Beach any more? Vero is about 150 miles South down the Eastern coast. If I drive 40 miles north of Orlando I'd be near Crescent City (West of Daytona Beach). I have an old friend who used to live in Pomona Park.

Fla._Deadheader · May 21, 2004, 04:49:19 PM

Rocky, we WORK in Georgetown, but, LIVE in Vero. Some day, ya gotta make the drive and ride the Logging Barge. ;D ;D

Rocky_J · May 21, 2004, 04:56:47 PM

Whatever ya catch, is what's on the menu. ;D

We got a nice Burger Joint right down the road. :D :D :D :D

DanG · May 21, 2004, 07:55:17 PM

OWW, I sure hope we can work out a meet. Another "Shenanigan" at Harold's camp would be good, or I'd love to have you and your Bride stop off at my place. I'm always anxious to meet other FF folks. We'll talk more when the time nears.

:D :D ;D

I also enjoyed the story and pictures of you guys playin on the swamp. ;D. Fla_D your just like someone I knew with all kinds of ideas of his own, plus lotsa ideas from others to make his millions. All put together would keep ya just a little behind. :D ;D :

keep churnin out them stories ;)

Reminds me of a time some city slickers where gonna come here and make their fortune fur trapping. Had the land all bought for a house, but once reality set in they was sellin the lot back and never returned. bahahha :D :D

cheers

Stan · May 24, 2004, 01:23:52 AM

Sounds more'n fair to me, I was afraid you were gonna make me pay you. :D

OneWithWood · May 24, 2004, 07:09:10 AM

DanG, and others, definately one way or another we will see you before we leave the state.

Tom · May 24, 2004, 04:49:09 PM

If you're passing through Jacksonville and linger on the North side in the vicinity of the airport, I'll bet we can get together. Keep us updated on your schedule.

Fla._Deadheader · May 24, 2004, 04:52:13 PM

Turns out, that's the starting day of the Moultrie Show :

:

I wanna go see that Petersen Auto Swinger ;D ;D ;D

Tom · May 24, 2004, 04:56:34 PM

Really!! That would be a good visit. ;D A trip to Moultire for two days to visit with the Southern fellows who will hopefully be eating grits at the Shoneys, visiting at the show and staying over at one of the motels on I-75. 8)

Fla._Deadheader · May 24, 2004, 06:12:56 PM

Tom, ya got plans for the show this year??? Ya wanna team up, again ???

Tom · May 24, 2004, 06:14:33 PM

I go every year ..... so far :D Sure. the more the merrier :D

Tom · May 24, 2004, 07:09:57 PM

I just went to the site and checked the dates. The show is Oct. 19-21 2004. I'll probably be going the 20th and 21st.

OWW.. I'll still be around to visit. Like I said, stay in touch. There's no telling what we might cook up. ;D

DanG · May 24, 2004, 09:21:25 PM

A 24 foot frozen steer, maybe? ??? :

:D :D :D

OWW, maybe you could schedule to meet us at Moultrie on your way down, if it ain't too late to re-arrange yer schedule. ???

etat · May 24, 2004, 10:51:21 PM

QuoteA 24 foot frozen steer, maybe?

Now what would make a person say something like that unless it was an inside joke? Come on, tell us!!

Bigdogpc · May 25, 2004, 03:14:39 AM

I know about the frozen steer...ya ought to be ashamed of yurself DanG, throwing something like that out to confuse folks! Somebody else will need to spill the beans on it tho. Right now this minute I'm on for Moultrie! Another swamp thing sounds good too!!

As for the swamp video...GREAT IDEA!!!! (keep in mind I watch bad video on gold prospecting...I'd watch most anything that holds my interest)

Great story FDH!

OneWithWood · May 25, 2004, 07:40:38 AM

Is that Moultrie, GA? I will check with the little lady to see if she would be able to take a couple extra days off to leave early.

DanG · May 25, 2004, 08:10:02 AM

Ya gotta read the rest of the Forum, CK. ;D It could have been a contest, but I doubt it. :

Yep, OWW, it is Moultrie, Ga. The Ag Expo is a great event, with lots of interesting exhibits. It covers everything with any connection to agriculture, including forestry and sawmilling. HUGE show.

I hope you can work it out, but if not, we'll figger out another way to get with you.

slowzuki · May 26, 2004, 06:52:27 AM

Heres a real question for ya! How do ya tell what species driftwood is ??? Here it is all sun bleached and it either sinks or floats :D

Do ya just bring it home and see what surprises await 8)

Fla._Deadheader · May 27, 2004, 08:16:57 PM
