i would love to see the tiger stripe-esque tan lines that wearing those sandals without socks would have achieved on such a sunny day!

True enough, but the ONLY thing worse than wearing socks with outdoor sandals on a warm sunny day is wearing BLACK knee-high ones.

That's ground's for revocation of your Manly Man Card in every state except FLA, which gets the Retired Senior exemption.  Huh Grin Grin

I get those awesome summer 'tiger stripes' from wearing my Keen sandal all summer long.  It makes me feel like I've spent a good amount of time outdoors when they get good and dark!

Back on topic - just made my flight reservations for Madison!  Looking forward to my first 'copia, meeting some fellow QJ'ers (I've only met PAJeff....up on Brent Lake last summer) and spending some time with family.  I have family just north of town and am coming in early to see some of them.

An update.
As indicated earlier, MP and I will be presenting, "Customizing Your Canoe For Fishing Success". Our assigned time slot is on Sunday at 12:30pm in Algonquin room. We hope many can stay for it. MP will be covering some hot topics such as 'which fish finders are best for wilderness fishing?', 'things to do with rental canoes', 'which batteries provide the most power?', ' best ways to mount transducers'.

I will discuss rod holders, tackle box mounts, and other helpful innovative methods to stay organized for fishing.

Several have asked me about Saturday dinner plans. I'm not aware of this years plan. In the past Kingfisher has planned this much anticipated event. To enhance the dinner, it was decided last year that we would not organize a lunch. My hunch would be that if one were to head to The Coliseum over the noon hour, one might encounter other QJers.

Anyway, stay tuned... Cool Wink

I'm starting to wonder how many QJers are planning to attend Copia, March 13-15, in Madtown?

How many are interested in a Saturday dinner?

How many are interested in a Friday dinner?

Please post here if you are planning to attend. Thanks. Cool Thumbs Upup  Thumbs Upup

I will be attending and in town mid afternoon on Friday and heading back home Saturday afternoon. Anyone who has enough nerve to say "hello" has my promise I will not be as long winded in conversation as I have been in recent posts.

We will be there Friday and Saturday for probably almost all of the time, but for sure we will be at the 7:30 presentation of "Paddle Songs" by Jerry Vandiver on Friday evening and again for Jerry's presentation at 3:30 on Saturday (Algonquin Room).  We will have our 12-year-old granddaughter with us.  She is tall and willowy and looks older than 12 (actually she won't be 12 until May.)  I am sure I have posted enough photos of us that we are recognizable, and please do say "Hi!" if you see us.

It is entirely possible that we will come to the Coliseum Bar on Saturday for our lunch, with the possibility in mind that we might see some QJ folks there. 

Whether or not we stay for Sunday's presentations may depend upon how enthusiastic Anna is for Canoecopia, since it will be her first experience there.  We also have to allow for some good time in the hotel swimming pool.   Wink
