I survived the 3rd anual FTR get together!

*wow*…

another great time was had this year despite the (apparently now traditional!) rain…..

I was fairly sure I would die of sheepshead poisoning or something equally gruesome (hmmm IS there anything equally gruesome!!??)……

I stayed on and partied like a big dog until after 3 am…. then I jumped ship and headed home……..

sooooooo Hawger…. dont we get anyT-shirts or hats or something that say “I survived the FTR get together??”

but I guess we should shorten it….. hmmmmmm lets see…..

we need a catchy acronym……….

ummmmmmm how bout…..

WALLEYE.. Wow Another Logically Located Everts Yearly Event…….

STORM…. Sure To Obliterate River Men…..

DRUNK… says it all I think.. this is NOT an acronym!! lol

TART… Third Annual River Tourney……

(oh boy.. cant wait till next years!! .. but then the Fourth and Fifth years will be the same… )

well… Im SURE you all can think of many better ones!!……

but Im still suffering from…… a headache…. no doubt from lack of sleep!!…… yeah.. thats the ticket….

oh… and these acronyms are not meant to insult or degrade a great event… they are just the deranged maunderings of a suffering River Rat… meant only to bring a grin of remembrance to the participants… or perhaps a pang of grief to those who missed out on all the fun!!…..

Boy was that a GREAT TIME!!! I got to fish meet new guys from the board and then drink beers!! In that order! What a great time! I really had fun later in the day after the tourney and food was over! I’m Lucky I didn;t get a dwi on that golf cart! great to see everyone and thanks to e.f.n I am already looking towards next year’s party.. cya on the water!!! Having the party at evert’s really worked out great!!! Plenty of room and no police telling you to leave!

I am still trying to survive the 3rd annual FTR get together. I don’t think a bottle of water nor the bottle of advil has left my side, since my departure. On another note, it was a great event….congratulations to all the winners, thank you to EFN staff and volunteers for putting together a great couple of days. The food, beer and comradery were great. I look forward to next years event.

Here is a group pic from the 3rd anual FTR Get Together.

another asprin please

I am not sure that I did survive… yet… I am still suffering. Not from the fine food and drinks… but the sun & heat! No, I did not stay up as long as some of you guys… but did go out fishing on Sunday… in that inferno-heat to fish with Mudlinthru. And boy, that drained me… and my poor doggie, Dolly. I had to hit the cool bath tub and get to bed once I arrived home… & never even un-packed… slept till next day, about 12 hours! Wow, though… I wish I could go again tomorow! Oh, what fun.
Shirts, banners, and a huge flag saying
“I Lived Thru
FTR
Get-Togeather ‘ 02″
is definately is in order.
Hawger

Where was I?Mazer why didnt you wake me up!!!!!!LOL!!!!!!!!!!

The jury is still out on whether or not I survived. By the time I hit Austin, I was wishing we’d been struck by lightning.

Great to meet everyone, and look forward to seeing y’all again.
