Alpine Valley...2005!

[land_shark3]

We stayed in Lake Geneva at the Harbor Shores resort right on the lake and we had a great stay there! Including the short 15 minute drive to Alpine!

Next year I'm flying into Chicago, Madison, or staying at Lake Geneva. Janesville was an absolute blast, however with my lack of geographic knowledge I had no idea I could pass by East Troy so many times in one weekend. I think I've just about memorized the route between Janesville and MKE.

Can't wait for Chicago!

Whats up??? You didn't even take my call at intermission and than I never get a call back.....come on FUNBob!!!!

A quick note to Brian (AKA Alpine Valley)

Brian! As usual, another fun day at Alpine! Thanks for vesting interest in your customers, and coming to us to open the avenues for discussion to make the day as enjoyable and anti-problematic as possible for everyone! (I apologize for the semi-obnoxious guy that was by me up at will call! I didn't know him, he just happened to be there talking to my friend Nora and I!) Oh yeah, thanks for ordering the lovely weather!

Captain! Your people were with my people!

jkortum, finsgirl, and RumLover! WooHoo on the parrotvision appearances! I'd like to hear some of the fun details from your awesome seats!

opharbour! It took us a little while, but we finally found 'em! Thanks for sticking with me!

Lawn buddies! I couldn't have asked for better company! Once you share the experience with CRC, it's hard to imagine another one without her!

Phat Matt! You rock!

Phat Matt's Mom! Thanks for letting Matt come play with the people you warn him about!

My head is still stirring from the fun of finally meeting so many of you! And everyone I missed, I look forward to the next opportunity!

Rats...

Intermittent cell coverage evidently kept me from finding folks, and it sounds like a great time was had by all.

Think I saw HSV on the video monitor (apologies if this has been noted), as well as a couple other folks wearing the green lanyards. Also saw Tiki in the "Best of" video.

I am thinking next year, Janesville is going to be the option.

Tiki! Thank you for getting a portion of my face on Parrotvision!!!

Great time was had by the Horsemen as always.. Except for the jag who decided to take our marker ( Confederate Flag w/Rattlesnake saying Don't Tread On Me) Guess there is an a**hole in every crowd.


Oh yea and to the two security guards who tried to kick us out --- WE WERENT DOIN s*** You had the wrong MEN.

I will catch up with you in a bit....sorry I didn't return your call, but obviously he wasn't too eager to give me the message It's okay....

Someone mentioned they were going to try and make a recording of the Alpine show from RM.

If so, would it be possible to get a copy?

I'd love to be able to listen to the show in a much more sober state!

Alpine was great....only my second year there, but even better than last year!

Met lots of people and had a awesome time, next year we're thinking about taking the Bus......

[tequilajoe]

Hi All: I didnt get a chance to catch up with most of you but I did run into Tiki in the lot and thanks to her, I made it on to the jumbo as well. THANKS!!!! I was also on with my buddy who was wearing the large breasts. I had no p[roblems in the lot and didnt see any. Everyone was great. I thought the set list was super and overall I had a blast.

On behalf of my crew from Kansas City I just want to say thanks to everyone who made our trip to Alpine a great one. We spent the trip home planning for next year!!!

WOW!! What a weekend!!! I will have pics to post soon... I'm just glad I'm not the one that got locked in that bus bathroom on the way home. Damn that was funny. And how about Steve yelling, "Hey! Is anybody else concerned about this guy not knowing where the hell he's going?" Although my friend's favorite quote of the weekend was from Tatiana when she was telling us about the Hawaii Buffett shows being "different" and kinda subdoed, and she pointed at me and said, "Like, you would probably go to jail." Whatever, I still wanna give it shot next time Buffett is there!!!

We had so much fun!! Laura & Jeff (my Buffett virgins) are ready to do it again so now I'm thinking about Chicago!! Wooo-Hoooo!!!

What an awesome Day/Night !!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find any of the BNers....what time did the buses make it to the lot?

Anyway.....I plan on being at Alpine again next year, and I promise to get in the "loop" earlier than I did this year.

Congrats to Tiki and gang for the big screen appearance!!!!

I'd be interested in a copy if anyone has the RM broadcast of the show.

Fins WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY UP!
