The New BallOfSpray Intergalactic Headquarters

[Horton]

We took the keys last week. There is some clean up to be done we are going to need some water but I am pretty exited.

[Horton]

Precision Ranch. Next door to SkiWest. There is no water because we are getting ready to go deeper by 2-3 feet. First time I ski at my new lake house it will be a brand new lake.

 

[RichardDoane]

I'm looking forward to the BOS Invitational next season

[GOODESkier]

@Horton when I was at Ski West I took a look around over there. COOL! Good for you! I am with @richarddoane we can carpool from the airport..............

[ozski]

Impressive. Holiday rates for Aussies?

[skiep]

Sweet! Congrats. Lot of work but worth it.

[A_B]

How do you get water in?

Congrats.

[Skoot1123]

@horton - congrats! I can tell you who to get some equipment from for digging that extra 2-3 feet out. Any ideas how it skied before and what you think it will ski like after?

[Horton]

@AB Pump

[A_B]

Is that water table, or some underground spring? I am out in Visalia at our plant right now, but traveling with the big boss, or I would head down to say hello. Do they let you tap into the agricultural supply? Looks like a lot of water channelled for crops out here.

[Horton]

@ab water table. way way down

[DW]

Awesome, congrats.

[behindpropellers]

I think my friend greg is probably in your lake today digging test holes.

[kstateskier]

Congrats Horton! Living on a lake is probably all of our dreams - glad you made it!

[Dacon62]

Congrats @Horton!

Is this S. Cal? Where? Looks awesome!

[colo_skier]

Congrats @Horton. This makes me think of the Mervyn's commercial "Open Open Open"

[bishop8950]

Just got a message from "Badwater" Bob Edie that the neighborhood just went to sh*t

[BlueSki]

That is one hell of a concentration of ski lakes, we need more of those across the country. Just curious if all of the lakes are ever in use simultaneously.

[rawly]

Not today : ) @rico and I are the only ones out. That lake only had a few people using it regularly this past season. As Bishop said "there goes the neighborhood " how bout a moment of silence for Arvin California's most well known vagabond That guy Horton skied more often than most owners. Must be the pedigree of his name.

[Steven]

Congrats! When do they start the dig? Do you expect to ski it by spring? Your buddy Durwood and I did the renovations at Wet set a few years back. Lake projects are fun! Whose doing the excavation?

[Bulldog]

Congratulations!! I skied ski west years ago and loved that area!! I look forward to a new unboxing movie set!!!

[markchilcutt]

Congrats @Horton!! Every skiers dream!!!

[colo_skier]

Looks like the last house before the trailer turn around and only a couple of hours from LA. Now I am thinking I wonder what IPA Mr Horton really likes? Or better yet what does Mrs Horton like? All joking aside good for you Mr Horton.

[Not_The_Pug]

Congrats @Horton!!!

[Joeprunc]

Life just got a lot sweeter!!!....well except for when you have to drive to work, and look out your back window. Congratulations!

Does the lake has a club boat, or is that the next purchase?

My wild guess is you going to promo a new MC Prostar.

[rayn]

Congrats. Hopefully you will still have time for us on BOS.

[Jordan]

NICE!!!!

Clearly you have opened the Ball of Spray Canadian off season branch plant!

[estrom]

Nice! I can't get good water anywhere around here and you can stand on your porch and spit into 13 lakes. I say this affectionately, but you suck.

[Horton]

@richarddoane do I know you?

@GOODESkier You are friends with @richarddoane? stay away

@Skoot1123 if it does not ski good when we done I will be very pissed

@DW come by any time

@estrom yes I do

@Jordan I have a mexican gardener. What can Canadians do for me?

@Joeprunc club boat? I wish. We will see what I can get on that life in the spring.

@colo_skier Mrs. Horton drinks Firestone 805 or RedStripe

@Steven please do not tell Durwood where I am

 

 

[tjm]

Congrats. When do you move in???

[Horton]

@tjm Not moving in. Start skiing after the dig and refill. Sometime before spring.

[tjm]

I'll have to figure out an appropriate house warming gift! Hmm?

[BraceMaker]

@tjm - a big garden hose.

[Andy]

@horton, treat yourself to some Kilo on ice as you enjoy your new place. Congrats!

[eleeski]

@Horton Can the UCLA ski team rent a room? I'm sure the entire team can fit in one room. It might help pay the mortgage. Unless the wear and tear offsets that. Hmmm

Eric

[bogboy]

@Horton, congratulations, and enjoy!

[bigtallweed]

@Horton To drain your lake did the water get pumped to the adjacent lakes? That is a ton of water to deal with or was it just left to evaporate over a long period of time? Congratulations, a skier dream.

[Wish]

Well, if spring is the goal for being done with the dig, they may want to shovel faster....and more then just one at a time..... oh.. and a wheelbarrow might be a good idea. ;-)

.

.Still awesome..Congrats!!

[Texas6]

@Wish - Looks like they found my sunglasses

[Wish]

Hmmm? Best Caption thread..

[Jordan]

***@Jordan I have a mexican gardener. What can Canadians do for me? ***

 

@Horton...the answer is that we can bring Canadian beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Horton]

@Jordan that I understand

[Horton]

@bigtallweed mostly pump to a farmer's field.

[thager]

That was one ski that Horton did not want to review!!

[Horton]

[kstateskier]

the sight of a dry lake is depressing...

[Horton]

@kstateskier

No need to be sad. Soon it will be deeper

and bluer.

[jipster43]

That's a Ball of Stoke!

[behindpropellers]

@wish Bob's lake?

[Chuck_Dickey]

@horton

 

Hope your lake dig goes quicker than Sundown 1 did !

 

I'll have a 2014 Prostar to sell you, you can have it in August, 2014!
