Beach Countdown

[OhioBeachBum]

The countdown has begun... In a mere 51 hours we (self, wife, and man-child) will be wheels-turning for beach country. All goes well, we should have toes in the sand by about 6pm Sun Thereafter, until the following Sun (except for a 5 hr charter fish trip on Tue), I expect to be blissfully parked at location noted in the attached photo

Wanted to thank all of you (again) who have provided insight, enlightenment, and above all entertainment over past weeks This will be the first year I'll actually sorta look forward to going back home a little - so I can check out the SoWal board traffic I missed ;-)

Have a great time! I don't envy your drive though

Drive down's not too bad (except for when we gotta get up). I-65 is pretty country in your neck of the woods, especially in the morning. Drive back always seems longer though.

Boy you ain't kidding

Beware of local posters!

Nothing much to fear there, from what I've read here - no more or less bent than some of my family members Fair warning to locals bearing cameras though - use a filter - my punkin haid in the FL sun is really bad for the equipment :laughing1

Hope you have a great week! How long of a drive is that from Tipp City? I'm not sure where that is in Ohio.

'bout 20mi north of Dayton. Something like 13 hrs (& change) drive time to where we stay. With the fuel, food and whatnot stops, runs a bit over 15 hrs total. Maybe a wee bit longer this year. Otter country mounties nabbed near a couple hundred of my hard-earned last trip down - apparently a special license is required for that velocity

Yep - quality product. Probably wouldn't have helped me though. Popped out around a truck near crest of a hill and bang! Can't shave near 20mph off the top end that quick Weenie mistake, that - and I drove a (big) truck for a few years putting myself through school way back when - should have known better. My new rule. No CB, no second-guessing the fuzz
