Sunday I got on the phone and made arrangments for Merl and RoHo to meet Cheryl and I at the Ramp.The water was up and the wind was blowin but whate the heck ,the weather man said it was goin to clear up and it did . with neither Merl or RoHo wanting responsibility for the lead I being the younger of the ole men set out to hit the marsh at Volusia Bar.The water was about 4"'s deep and I was enjoying myself.I figured that I might as well head out the old trail back to the lake since the water was up so good.Yea ,I figured wrong again .The trail played out ,the water played out and the Myrtel bushes closed in .I wasn't long before I heard the over the hill gang comin real strong through the bushes.Rohocleared the bushes on my right and made a left turn in front of me comin back on my left.His boat was ridin the clump grass wich was hold him up 2 to 3 feet above the ground wich was alright till his boat slide off while trying to make a turn.The boat didn't turn It just rolled over not all the way Just enough to get Cheryl ta screamin out of fear for RoHo .Since Roho's boat couldn't turn out of the grass and thick Myrtels were ahead ,We manually pushed his boat around.I suggested to Cheryl that she might want to help us old men get the boat around to were he could blow out ,that didn't go over to good at all .Merl and I made it back to my my boat were I keep a 100 foot of rope ready on my deck for such occasions seems that here latley I have been gettin stuck more than my share.We then waded through the thick and high grass back to Merls boat wich was ready and waiting at the edge of the lake with my 100 and another 50 of Merls rope ,I was ready to hit the Lake and we did.Cheryl was so happy to be free fom the marsh.We then made are way to the run were we cooked and BS'd about are little adventure and such .O yea ,Merl and RoHo did take my leadership credentials away for the day ,Hope it ain't permanent.
Take care and be safe.
