Let's give old kkuntz the benefit of the doubt -- I would still wheel with you kuntz-- and move on.

Such a heated thread for the Great Lakes area! Wow!
Well said.

I fully understand some of what I said was inflammatory, but only to an extent. What YOU WILL NOT FIND in any of my posts, whether it be here or on the gljt site is me speaking in a derogatory manner to ANYONE on this forum. Interesting how the opposite is not true of the few here. For those who wish to point out either of the posts I made calling into question the technique used to recover Shoup. Well you sort of have me with that. I spoke negatively of it yes, however I did not speak in a derogatory nature, nor did I display the beligerence that others have exhibited. I can understand if someones feelings are hurt or if you're angered that you've been made the poster child for what is "perceived" to be a dangerous recovery. I can understand that. What I just don't get is why some felt the need to drag this below the level that I may have introduced this whole fisaco at.

So let me get this right, If i take the drain plugs out. My wife will get wet? and maybe put something in a hole? Man I missed a good run and learning experience. It usually takes me a lot of time and energy to get my wife wet. I'm getting more excited to take her out now.

Yes she was there as well as the 2 kids and the dog. She liked this one more, she was a little more prepared than she was last time. She will be ready for our next trip.
