Hey James. We’re skipping the Pancake place too even tho I love it. But we figured as busy as they are... we’re in Salt Springs now. Only about 1.7’ under the boat crossing the bar in. Tomorrow we’re thinking of going up the Oklawala <SP?> to anchor. I’ve got my AIS transmitting when underway and we’re monitoring 16 and 72. Maybe we’ll see you guys somewhere downstream. I think Thursday night we may be in 7 sisters. BTW, Salt Springs is much nicer than Silver Glen. Very peaceful! Colby

Colby....
Betty will be running in the Murphy Creek Conservation Island so maybe we’ll see you at 7 Sisters. Should be there in a couple days or three. I’ll hail you on 72 to see if your around. Enjoy the Oklawaha, we’ll be taking a friend up the weekend after Hontoon.

James

I’m sorry to say that Kathryn will have to cancel this year as well. Site 2b is now available!

My 92 year old father in law is having eye issues—macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cornea impairment all rolled into one mess. We are making lots of runs to the eye docs with him. I hope they can save his vision.

NEXT YEAR!

Hi Everyone,
Sorry to have to say that Pam and I will not be able to make it to the get together on Hoonton Island this year. If anyone would like to use the slip I reserved, they are welcome to it. Hopefully we will be able to get there for the next one.

Sorry you can’t make it but there’s always next year. I think you can get a partial refund for your slip on Reserve America.

I have a Furuno Radar, and Chartplotter (original listing is here: http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?p=348127 )I can bring to Hontoon, if someone wants it, free or whatever price it commands at the silent auction!? I would rather not haul it both ways, so please ping me and i will bring it if there is interest. Any bid goes to the auction cause. Fully functioning, thought it was sold several times but fell thru on shipping it no continued response. Let me know!

You can launch and park your rig at Ed Stone park on hwy 44 west of DeLand. Park on SE side closest to highway. To get to Hontoon go south from the park. Lat/Lon is N28*58.485. W81*21.492. For a marina slip go to reserveamerica.com web site.

We have been at Hontoon since Friday the 5th. Cool at nights. Nice Days. Had heavy rain Saturday--no more predicted for the week.

It appears that you can pull in and get a slip for the night--contrary to what the policy had become last March. Ranger prefers that reservations be made.

Not many people at the park in contrast to previous years.

We had trouble getting adequate internet until today. Using Verizon hot spot currently.

While preparing for the trip we discovered that our plan to get one more year out of our bearings and tires was foolish and unfortunately we don’t feel comfortable making the journey this year. We are disappointed that we won’t be able to see everyone- but looking forward to next year when hopefully trailer issues and covid will be behind us.
Slip 13b is now available.
Thanks to Tom and Joyce for putting on such a wonderful gathering-see y’all next year
