Ken, when you git your new electronics set up let me know when you and Patti are heading west on 44 to "Scallop Central". Professor Woods and Co., Eric and Cindy and the Ruskin Bootlegger and Ms. Nancy and I wanted to roundeveau at the Freezer, if you could give us a waypoint on the calendar. It would be like an unauthorized Short, Mini Scallop Gathering. (Not to be confused with Mini Skirts and /or Short Shorts like Daisy Duke wore)

Tide is low at 9 am. Good time for oysters unless you guys want to get some freediving gear on. On second thought, that won't work, if they don't stick out of the water, how'm I goin to find'em?

[Snookerd]

Terry-That schedule looks identical to the one that I was thinking about ! We do need to pick up the pace on this event. I am really looking forward to those oysters, Connor. everybody ready to do a roll call? Who do we have coming for the next installation of the mother of all gatherings?

Mike, I think check out time is 11:00 at Cabbage Key, but some of us will be fool'in around over at Cayo Costa until mid-afternoon. Remember, the days get "Cropped" after daylight savings time switches the end of October. Come on down, we'll hang witch ya' Bro.

Mel and I have the big house at Cabbage Key from the 5th thru the 11th. Hoping to cover all of any fish fry needs that may occur durring the event. I will also offer up a run to Cedar Key for clams before we come down if any want in on some.

[cdavisdb]

put me down for a bag of clams

I'll be leaving Terry's about noon on Sunday, maybe a little later if I can't get Terry and Bushwacker to stop talking
