We were over 100 degrees yesterday...today it is hitting about 75. :mad: :mad:

I have Wednesdays out of the office so that is the day for lake time. It seems the wind has picked up 4 out of the last 5 Wednesdays.

Hope things are better in Arizona!!!!!!!!

I left Bakersfield this morning for Vegas and the Wind was fierce the whole way from Bako to Vegas. Then I came back home this evening and the same thing fierce wind the whole way and dust storms. I am thinking this is a big from from AZ up to UT coming in from the coast or we are experiencing the clash of a big low and big High pressure change.

It was in the mid 70's today and were expecting to get cooler and have some rain on Friday & Saturday.

Love the heat when I'm at the river, otherwise I like the cool!

Well, temp has been nice, but VERY windy today, and worse tomorrow. So I guess going to skip the lake tomorrow, so no lake this week, bummer. No fun with 30mph winds and gusts to 50.

I saw that....reminded me of that tornado that demolished Jarrell TX 11 years ago. It looked pretty bad. :eek:

Not sure I'd go anywhere near there for a while. The debris field for one of those babies is pretty wide.

Funny... Actually no... Going to Reno, NV for my god-son's birthday party. :) Staying off the lake because 1) the weather sucks and 2) other a-holes and idiots out there. :D

I Agree - See the article below. We went out the same night, but fortunately decided to a adjacent lake a little closer.

Man in hospital after boats collide on High Rock Lake

HIGH ROCK LAKE -- A Thomasville man remained in the hospital yesterday after two boats collided Wednesday night on High Rock Lake.

The collision happened about 6:50 p.m. in a bend of Flat Swamp Creek about a quarter-mile from the lake's Pebble Beach boat access, said Sgt. Tony Yon, the supervisor of the Davidson County Sheriff's Office's lake patrol.

Robert Todd Bohannon, 45, of Fairgrove Road in Thomasville was taken to Lexington Memorial Hospital and then to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem.

He was in fair condition yesterday, a hospital spokeswoman said.

The other driver, George Edward Hatfield, 36, of Denton was not injured.

A passenger, Jimmy McCarter, 51, of Salisbury was taken to Lexington Memorial Hospital and then released.

Yon said that the boats don't appear to have been speeding, and there was no alcohol on either boat. No charges have been filed, and the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission is investigating.

I see you're going for a new record. My guess is that you'll be selling the RZ2 in a couple of years and it won't even have reached it's 20 hour service interval :)

Of course, you'll be able to claim mint condition. ;)

Nope, have owned it for a little less than 2 months and have put 13.5 hours on it already. :D Plus, I can't afford to do that... Costing way too much money to get out from underneath the 24Ve. :(
