Just finished day 3 dinner of ribs baked beans coleslaw spaghetti squash and home made vanilla ice cream

 

Here is Ken getting ready to cook his ribs for dinner tonight. Will post an after pic to show the destruction?

 

Here is proof that the Wednesday night crew does more than eat drink and take naps on vacation

 

@Rednucleus with the remains of our second night’s dinner stuffed flank steak. Also had augratin potatoes cauliflower and finished off with home made tin roof ice cream. Oh yea a great day of skiing on lake Curlew along with some canoeing and biking on the trail. Can’t wait til tomorrow ?

@Rednucleus after our first day at lake Curlew. So much skiing so little time? just wait til tomorrow!

Our first nights dinner at Curlew. Lasagna salad melons and we finished things off with home made chocolate chip mint ice cream. What a great day!

 

Oops here are pics of breakfast

 

@LoopSki that sounds awesome! The Wednesday night crew are planning a houseboat trip in the next few years to lake Roosevelt one of bucket list items.

Just finished breakfast after our morning ski. Fried eggs hash browns bacon melon and @Rednucleus wife’s blueberry coffee cake. Ready for the next ski set

@Hallpass when my mom passed away 2 years ago she made a list of all the things that she had that she wanted to go to certain people. She was a very organized person! That is so cool what you are doing. Best wishes to you on your fight. God speed?

The Wednesday night crew made it to lake Curlew near Republic Wa last to start our week of skiing, eating and hanging out together. Got a ski in last night just before dark and plan to ski often this week. Will send updates of the days and dinners

 

@bananaron what happened to that dream boat you were so excited about? Deal fall through?☹️

The Wednesday night crew had just a regular old Wednesday night with a dinner of smoked pork butt sandwiches with grilled onions, cauliflower casserole, coleslaw and finished things off with vanilla ice cream and rhubarb bars. Another great night of skiing and hanging out with your best friends on probably the best weather night of the year so far! Off to lake Curlew Friday for a week skiing for the Wednesday night crew. Can you say “road trip”? Should be a great time with lots off good food and fellowship and plenty of skiing. Stay tuned for reports

 

@6balls I will second that! I love my 02 Sunsetter LXI not just for skiing but for it’s all around function and performance

I finally got the bbq/smoker I always wanted and smoked a pork butt yesterday . Skied this am and enjoyed a nice dinner with my kids grandkids and wife. What a great Father’s Day!

 

@Rednucleus don’t worry it weighed 11 lbs and my daughters are all on diets and none of my son in laws are coming ? will do my best to save enough for our Wednesday night get together? should no good with some coleslaw and finish off with some home made ice cream? ski you Wednesday

I thought wake board boats were designed to have all kinds of water in them ? this just goes to show you that you can’t fix stupid?

My son, one of my daughters, 2 of my granddaughters and my wife went skiing on Big lake with me for Father’s Day. Air 64 water mid 60’s . Overcast with no wind and pretty good water conditions. Finished up just as all the cruising boats were at the launch. Headed home for a family dinner this evening. Smoked a pork butt yesterday for 16 hrs should be fantastic! Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!

 

@6balls couldn’t agree more. One minute you are enjoying/doing what you love the next minute you are gone. So tragic! Prayers to his family

@keithh2oskier you are so right “some things are better off not being said” unless you have a wife that likes to play detective like mine?

@mmskiboat at Bow lake there is a 2 tier dock. The upper level is 20x10 and has 2 vertical racks that each hold 6 skis. The lower level is 20x3 and is covered with carpet. This 2 level dock gives us plenty of room for the 4 members of the Wednesday night crew and the lower level makes getting into the boat and the water to ski easier. There is also a ladder to make climbing out of the water after a set easier. I will take pics next Wednesday when we ski

The Wednesday night crew celebrated tonight with plain old fashioned bbq hamburgers with bacon, cheese, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, sautéed onions and bbq sauce, mustard and ketchup along with French fries and tater tots. O yes we had a salad with greens from @Rednucleus garden and radishes from my garden. Finished things off with home made rhubarb bars and whipped cream. Just a simple meal after an evening of skiing with your best friends.

By the way we did celebrate Malibu night at Bow lake with the two boats both being there because Doug’s Sportster broke a throttle cable just as we were getting started. Good thing I only live 15 min away and was able to make the quick trip home to get my Sunsetter LXI. Only one more week to go til our lake Curlew trip! Til next week?
