Hear ye, hear ye all inhabitants and fellow Compac-o-nauts!! The infamous Mid Winter gathering shall take place on Saturday January the twenty second in the year of our Lord two thousand and twenty two. Exact date could be adjusted a wee bit if that doesn't work but I decided, as the self appointed czar of the Barnegat Bay Bash to nail down a date. Place to be announced but I'm thinking of someplace on the water, maybe the Wharfside Restaurant in Point Pleasant, NJ.
Weigh in there me hearties!!

Looks good so far, we'll pencil it in.
Looks good! Any other brave souls??
That works for this wharf rat.
And now there are three!!
Hey Folks,
As long as the weather is fair Suzie and I will happy to join in again. What's the worst that could happen?
Well folks. Between Covid and grandkids events Suzie and I won't be able to make the trip down on that weekend. Maybe we'll try to come down for a visit in the future.
Stay well all....
Allen and Suzie
Sorry to hear that Allen, we will miss you and Suzie. But I still have your credit card number so in a way, you will be there! Thank you!!

Aye me hearties! The Mid Winter Gathering is only a week away. I'd like to propose that we meet at Wally's in Surf City, NJ at 6pm for this epic event. It's a BYOB place, great food and great service, although not on the water. Considering that all 5 of us are pretty local, I thought this would be a good place, but I'm open to suggestions.
What think ye?

Wally's sounds good, haven't been there since their renovations.
So a guy at work has Covid, might/might not have been exposed. Thinking I should bow out just in case. :(
Ok, I'm just seeing this now. I just got back a few minutes ago.

Nothing a little pbr won't kill.
Of course it's probably worse for you than any virus. :o
The official 2022 Mid Winter Gathering is postponed... new date TBA. Carl, on my way back from Florida today, I dropped a case of PBR out of the plane for you. Did you get it?

It must have landed in the water. Which would explain the huge fish kill.
Those fish ain't dead... they're happy you finally shared your PBR with them!
Well tested positive this morning, sent Lesa out for some PBR. ;D
It'll cure whatever ails ya!
hey Bob.. i have been following the plans for the mid winter gathering..looks like you are the last man standing! surely this is a testament for clean living a a good sense of humor - although, others might have a slightly different perspective... i hope that you can reschedule and keep the tradition alive. jt
Thanks JT, yes it would appear so and a sense of humor, I can't argue with that!!
I think the interest in the Bash and the MWG is waning but covid doesn't help either. We'll see what happens, sure do wish you and Janet the best! I'd love to visit- we'll see what this summer holds. Lots of rowing races scheduled already!
Bob23... for the cause!
well.. we will be moving to our house in Phippsburg in the spring - we brought the tiny house up from pa to use as a guest house.. you are welcome anytime - bring your lovely wife along! just as a point of interest. the weekend that we met you at the maine boatbuilder's show we also went to phippsburg to look at the land.. ended up buying it and spent the last 2 plus years gradually building the house. it is just about ready for us :) jt
Congratulations!
JT and Janet!! Phippsburg Maine looks like a charming town and we'd love to visit! Of course, how many years have I been saying that?? The house looks grand, so happy for you both!

Folks,
Ellen and myself are still here. Sorry to have gone missing,but had family issue to deal with. All is good. Looking forward to next gathering.
Ladies and gents: It appears the Mid Winter Gathering 2022 will morph into the Mid Spring gathering, or something to that effect.
Weigh in with any interest before I propose any dates.
For the cause,
Bob23
