Re: Booger, Peanut Butter(Pooper) & Jon's Good Times Trip
And for the record, I ditched nobody. Tiz and Jon were feeding the fish and Brasi needed someone to take his scooter back. Since Sandie wouldn't ride on one with me it was my only chance to scooter it that week. It was funny too because I picked up his scooter at Seastar and put Sandie on the back down Seastar Lane. We were doing maybe 5 mph max and she was already freaking out. So I dropped her off at Catcha and headed towards Gas's yard. Half way there I was swooped on by a few cars, like it was the Secret Service moving in. It was a quick WTF moment until Brasi poked his head out the window. Gas hopped out and was none too happy about another guy riding Brasi scooter. That was my cool scooter moment for the trip, that is until I saw Jon and Tizzy pulling a Dumb and Dumber moment later in the week. That story soon come.......

The chicken bus ride was one of the great highlights of the trip. We had a bus full of awesome people whom we would have the great pleasure of spending an ENTIRE day with. Pickup was around 8 am at Catcha for those who were staying there and than it was off down the West End to pick up a couple more folks at Mi Yard and than down to the beach for even more folks. A few folks dropped out for various reasons but Jim I have to call you out. Brasi was hurting something fierce and made the trek, so you not hopping on because you were hurting is weak sauce. :p So once we picked everyone up it was off to the ATM to load up on some cash and than we made the most important stop of the trip.

That's right, we needed to stock up on beers, and a lot of beer it was. No ice at that stop so we headed to the gas station and grabbed a few bags. FINALLY we set off headed for our adventure for the day.
A lot of us were pretty hung over, so the first half hour or so was pretty subdued. Then low and behold someone got the party started as suddenly the hangovers dissolved for most. The ride there was filled with joy and laughter and eww's and aww's taking in the sights. I remember coming around the bend and seeing Bluefield in all it's glory. You want to see some beautiful water, just take the short trip down to Bluefield. The place is absolutely gorgeous and I look forward to exploring the area some more on a future reach.
We hit YS Falls quicker than I had expected and I couldn't wait to get on the jitney and make it over to the landing area. The rope swing was calling my name and I had to get up there NOW. The place was packed in relation to our last trip as on our last trip there was maybe 10 people there. As I was walking the stairs I was worried the line to the rope swing would be like standing in line for Space Mountain on a hot summer day. But no worries as a lot of folks are chicken and there was virtually no line. Jon spared no expense and went to flipping, flopping and being a kid all over. Just do yourself a favor and remember to bring your water shoes as the rocks there are murder on your bare feet.
I'm not sure how many buses were there but I do know one was a short bus.

Thanks to whomever brought these kids as they were great fun to hang out with.....
After an hour or so everyone seemed to have their fill and it was time to head to Pelican bar with a slight detour just down the street near the turn off to YS for some lunch. It's a rustic set up and the food was amazing. Marley knows the name of the place so please chime in so others can check it out.

Sandie decided at one point that she needed to lie down and get her second wind back. It was non stop party on that bus and I'm surprised we all returned unscathed, well except for a little sea urchin episode that will soon come.....
Re: Booger, Peanut Butter(Pooper) & Jon's Good Times Trip
LMAO....no you didn't! Ha! Short bus!
The place we had lunch is just at the head of the road you turn on to go up to YS Falls...it is called Howie's Cook shop
Great food, great prices!

Damn, it was LATE!!!!!!! I was actually still ready to carry on and was drug back to the room by Sandie. So, did I miss anything? That was an interesting night to say the least. How many drunk boardies can you actually fit into a car?
Re: Booger, Peanut Butter(Pooper) & Jon's Good Times Trip
hahahaha, yes, you missed katho and I arguing with a taxi driver on how much for a ride to xtabi, after we had been walking on the beach road for for-ever (felt like forever, but probably only five minutes). and he was the only taxi around, btw. +1 was totally freaked out, lol.
