[Barb Baggott]

OK,who's in the convoy? I plan on leaving Thursday morning from Joliet, IL. Who's coming from where and what day and Scott, are we meeting up with you in Mt. Vernon for lunch and then going on to the lake?

[Barb Baggott]

Mat, that sounds great! Since you're close to the intersection and don't mine scoping things out, I'd sure appreciate it if you found a place. Whether its a truck stop or rest area, whatever. Thanks Mat!



Convoy is now Barb and Mat

I don't mean to be a wise guy,but what are you guys talking about?

 

[Barb Baggott]

OK wise guy....Just kidding. We are trying to get a convoy going for the rally in April. There's people from northern IL, Southern WI, and IN that are going, so we're trying to get a convoy going down I57 on the Thursday before the rally. You interested or in the area? The more the better!

Wish I could join in, ( Elk Grove here), but I'm taking wife to Vegas for a long weekend at that time. Hope to get to one of these rallies sometime, and wish all of you a great time, will be thinkin about ya!

 

[Barb Baggott]

Maybe we can do some fishing this summer egMike since we're so close. Hell, we can meet in the middle of IL and have Scott meet us.

[Jim Brone]

I'm sorry.I don't even know what "the rally" is.

What is it? Thanks.

 

[Barb Baggott]

No problem Jimn. Look at the home page on the right side and you'll see the 2003 NTOWS Rally Info. What it is, is people and their families on this board try to get together and have a sort of fishing tournament, and use that word "tournament" loosly. Actually, we try to meet people from this board. Feel free to join in, Scott is chairing this one, so he can help you with any questions you may have. The rally is at Kentucky Lake which isn't far from here. I'm in Joliet and I noticed you're in Oak Forest. I grew up in Forestview Hills off of Oak Park Ave. Anyway, check out the info and hopefully you'll join us. It's for a weekend.

Barb,



Just got off the phone with Corey (Kenosha Wi) about an hour ago... He's game for Thursday morning... So we'll hook up someplace down by you. MAT look around... Even a hotel lot or gass station... Although someplace with good coffee would be fantastic!

Sometime between now and then, when I'm passing through Mt. Vernon, I'll take a look and see which of the restaraunts there has the easiest access and parking for our boats and trailers.



Greg - You and Curtis reserve rooms yet?



Jeff White - You gonna turn on the chicken lights and join us?



me!

 

[Mike Levesque]

Barb, sounds good, once we get into some warm weather, I think that'd be fun, either meetin' up with Scott and anyone else that wants to, and trying a lake I haven't been on in Southern IL, or even right in your own back yard, Braidwood, before the water hits 90 degrees, lol, or Heidecke, etc... Anyhow, I'll keep it in mind, thanks Barb, egMike

 

[Greg Meyer]

Jeff PROMISED he'd be there to help defend the HONOR of Tin!!!



We are gonna chew up some (fiber-gl-)ass boys.... LOL

 

[Mike Tosello]

[Barb Baggott]
