LOOK AT THAT!!!You did find a colder day!!!

See that? Where there's a will there's a way!

Notice you still have not had anything positive to say. Are you planning on going if possible? If you cannot go, have you talked to others about it and about going?

We need all the help we can get, and we are all trying to help each other, so any help you can offer (and not just you, but everyone) is greatly appreciated.

I don’t want to go if it’s too cold! I don’t want to go if it’s too hot! I don’t want to go if it’s too windy! I don’t want to go if it’s too flat! I don’t want to go if it’s too crowded! Do you think you will have enough to go?

Never saw you not go when it was to windy!!!

Anyway I never said I wasn't going.I just said it is going to be cold.

I can picture it now.... 1/2 the bus filled with recreational fisherman the other 1/2 filled with commercial fisherman. Each side arguing about who's fish they are going to fight for-
OR maybe this is the opportunity for both sides to get along?.

Just a quick FYI:

Got off the phone today with Academy Bus, they are offering us an EXCELLENT price (thank you Mark & Francis) for buses to the Capitol for the 24th.

I am working with SSFFF, United Boatmen, RFA-NJ and others from NJ to coordinate the pricing, pickup location etc., so all the details should be up after the weekend.

I am posting this now before the details are finalized just to a) keep this topic up top and b) so people know that literally in a matter of days they will have the ability to go online to either SSFFF.net, unitedboatmen.com or joinrfa.org to purchase a spot on a bus. (all groups take checks of course and SSFFF and UB take visa/master and RFA also does paypal so all bases are covered)

Gimme a few days to coordinate with Hutch, Adam, Dave, Jim, Greg, etc. and all the gory details should be up on all websites early next week.

Spread the word for people to keep their eyes open for the details after the weekend and let's get things rolling. (again, pickup location will be part of the announcement!)

Thanks again to Mark & Francis Tedesco (spoke to Mark, gotta give his brother props too!) of Academy Bus for helping make this a reality. Not just the support and awesome price, but the willingness to pick up anywhere we decide and whatever we need in the way of buses!

Tony,

Thanks for keeping us up to date, the amount of work you all are doing is above and beyond. Just let us know so we can all make arrangements to be available, no matter what the weather.

I'm in, I'm sure my dad is in, as well as all of my friends and family - whether they like it or NOT! Dress warm, people!
