John's the man!! He sure knows how to throw a party and I'd be glad to attend another! I'll bring water again for the DD's and sober Pirates...

I have a personal input of not the weekend of the 27th as this lady crazy enough to put up with me for 25 years and I will be celebrating our Anniversary and she's already told me it won't involve treasure hunting!! Although I argued that we could go find some silver coins for our Silver Anniversary!!

Daryl thanks for tearing me up while I ate lunch, that's a great slideshow, Marshal loved treasure hunting and getting to talk to all you pirates!!

O.K. Guys,
We're having another cookout on Saturday April 20th so all of us with an interest in treasure hunting can get together and share our stories, knowledge, lies, etc. In the past, some good partnerships have evolved and at the very least you can finally put a face to those you've been talking to here on Treasurenet. I'm having it at the Pennwood Motor Lodge in Wabasso and I intend to share some of the wealth (expense) with all you guys. This thing has managed to double in size every year and I am a poor treasure hunter on Social Security. I want to see this event continue and grow, but I'm simply not a rich guy, nor can I reach into that basket and keep pulling out the bread, fish and wine, if you know what I mean. So the first big change I'm making is "BYOB"! I had a full Keg and a whole bunch of beer of brands that I don't drink go to waste last year. So, I'm asking that if you want alcohol, and it ain't Budweiser, just bring it! I will be supplying the BBQ Ribs, the Budweiser and the live entertainment. I've made arrangements with the manager of the Pennwood to have as many as 25 rooms available for a discounted rate of $65.00 a night. If anybody feels this is too much, just remember that a DUI is over $10,000. I figure it's about what is spent at Outback for dinner. The phone number for the Pennwood is (866)-742-9240 or (772)-589-3855, ask for Virginia and tell her your'e with the Treasure Hunters group so you can get the discount.
Now, last year, a few close friends have helped me pull this off. Some took care of the beer the last time, some of the food and some friends that weren't so close, brought stuff. Dell even sponsored a raffle and donated his cool stuff to offset costs. Believe me, I am doing these cookouts because, after 20 some years of being around this bunch of great people, I saw that all we needed was a casual place to get together. I chose the Pennwood is for several reasons. First, some of the original group of 1715 treasure hunter's stayed here, as did I back in the early 90's and have stayed here religiously every time I come down. They have a Pavilion, in case of rain, they have a pool to cool off in and show some of our landlocked TH'rs the beauty of SCUBA if I can get some of our instructors to help...and the weather permits. We have a bunch of instructors among our group that can introduce SCUBA to those that are curious. The grounds are all shaded and bottom line, my septic system at my house had just about reached it's limit.LOL.
Now, every group needs a leader. I'll be that person only for the same reason I did it before... Some folks wanted to pick and choose who could attend. I won't stand for personal grudges and petty B.S. As I've stated in the past, anyone interested in treasure hunting is welcome. Leave your grudges at home and enjoy the company we've already experienced in the past. This may be the best chance you'll have to meet all your cronies! This is for families too!
