Looks like the boat is up and running.
I know that several of us rolled our trips over rather than taking a refund.
Do we want to start comparing dates and see what works for a rerun of  Big Tim's Fishing Adventure?
There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.

I can go in July? I may still need a ride, the finances are coming together nicely...Damn the IRS...I want to fish soon or I may forget how to  ;D I also have a thought of the Channel Islands while they are still killing it down there.

I have to help a buddy move a boat to Hawaii from SF the week of the 18th.
Should take about 10 days max, other than that I'm open.
Anyone besides Big Tim?

BigTim & theswimmer,

I had such a great time in Morro Bay for our day of rockfishing, I will be back with my wife in tow for Aug. 21-23.
Rick (who was unable to go on our trip) and his wife are joining us, and Rick and I will fish Sunday, Aug. 23.

Also, my wife collects Press-a-pennies, and in the area between Morro Bay, SLO, Santa Maria, Paso Robles, there are MANY Press-a-penny Machines for my wife to collect pennies and add to her collection.  Currently, Jennifer has 500+ press-a-pennies, and our trip in Aug. will add another 50 pennies at least.

Once you get locked on your date, I'll check my calendar to see if I can make it back to MB!!!!

Easier to put a penny on the railroad tracks.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Those are just flat pennies... ;)

Wayne, Have Jennifer take my wife and kids...They love press pennies.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

I have a young lady friend who got charged with a felony for putting a penny on the ATSF track.

Sure Bryan!  I'll make sure to bring back some Press-a-pennies back for your wife and Kids!!!

BTW, Jennifer ONLY uses pennies minted before 1982, the copper went from 95% to 5% during that year.

As a young man I lived where the RR ran behind our home. We used to put pennies on the track all the time, we thought that was the cats meow....trying to keep it clean! Wish I had those pennies today before we flattened them, they would probably be worth something today.

As a youngster, we used to try the penny on the RR track but they usually vibrated off.  So we would stick them on with some used chewing gum.  Often wondered what happened to those flattened pennies???  ;) ;D  I know we all heard the threats of putting things on the RR tracks, but I have never even heard of someone having problems with putting pennies on the tracks--they probably weren't very sneaky if they got caught. ;)

I remember the squashed pennies.  Old Abe looked like a cone head.  :D Dominick
