These threads always generate some cool stuff... What is on your Christmas list (or what are you buying for yourself from Santa)? For me, some tools (battery charger and timing light both disappeared in the last 3 months?!?), AR10 pieces, sunglasses, bug-a-salt, and a new pocket knife that...

Good morning inmates! Go Kick some ass today!

Had a musician setup a floating stage in one of the party coves. Guy was decent, played for 2 hours for ~40 boats worth of people. Air temp from low 90's at the start to mid 80's as the sun set. Water temp in the mid 80's at the surface, a bit cooler 5' down. Little one kept trying to make...
