Just dropping by to see what's shaking around here...

Here are some things that went on in 2004...

Racing the First 235:

Michael,

Great to hear from you.  Are you looking to go back to a compac yet or is that after you go broke racing with the big guys?  :)

What were you doing in Beverly?  Crewing?  Still living in N.C., right?

Not much going on here at the moment other than a snow storm coming.

Happy New Year,

Curtis

Hey there, Mike! Was just thinking about you last night, wondering what you'd been up to. A lot of racing, it looks like. :) Good to see "Frenchie" out scooting along! Hope that new job is going better than the last. I'll give you a holler soon. Good pics!

*laugh* Not yet! I've got a bunch of racing to get out of my system first! :D

QuoteWhat were you doing in Beverly? Crewing? Still living in N.C., right?

I was up there crewing on a boat in the J/105 North Americans. The boat is from Hilton Head... I actually rode up with the boat on a giant trailer. (A J/105 is about 35' LOA). We pulled it with a Ford F250 SuperDuty/Turbo Diesel.

It was a great time! Buzzards Bay was nice.

Yep, still living in North Carolina.

QuoteNot much going on here at the moment other than a snow storm coming.

We've been having weather around 70 degrees for the last week or so! It's all a big tease... I'm sure we'll have snow in a few weeks. Crazy NC weather.

QuoteHappy New Year

Likewise! Great to hear from you!

Michael

Hey! I've been lurking on TSBB a lot, following some of your recent saga...

Yep... been doing a lot of racing, both on my boat and crewing for other people. Good times! I've developed a Mount Gay addiction, I think.

QuoteGood to see "Frenchie" out scooting along! Hope that new job is going better than the last. I'll give you a holler soon. Good pics!

*laugh* "Frenchie" :P

Yes! The new job is a LOT better... thanks for asking!

Give me a call! I'd love to hear from you...
