Is it crazy crowded?  We are going at the end of Aug 2006.  Where is the best place to park a houseboat?  Any must-see recommendations?  Glassy water for skiing?  Anything to avoid?  Thanks a lot!

Water Level is very Low. And hard to say about the glassy water. Some days are better then others. Sometimes on high wind days waves can be over 3 ft tall. But for the most part it is good skiing. And fuel up your boats etc before you get there gas prices are over the top! And paradise? Well if you think Paradise is lake Powell then it probably still is!

Went to Park City in 2002 to officiate and spectate. A WONDERFULL experience. Went with a group of 15 people. Rented a condo about 1 mile from the site( for Luge). Had to split the cost 8 ways ( couples) only way to afford it. Ticket won't be Available yet but start sniffing for a place to stay. Be ready for sticker shock.\n\n                    Lugeman

Look at on line sites like www.trimbleoutdoors.com. Once signed in you can see all kinds of trips with topo maps for that region. Also dress in layers as it's cold at night (altitude) and hot during the day. Make your own dry foods if you have a dehydrator or buy at places like Big Lots for dry prepared foods rather than paying those ridiculous prices at REI, etc...One of the nice things about that area is it's pretty bug free and will not run into bad weather and rain but be prepared for it!\n\nPersonally, I'd forget Yosemite and do the MT. Whitney trip from the Whitney Portals. You don't have the crowds and you don't need to make it to the top (just under 15,000ft). BTW the PCTrail is there too.  Also bring a telescopic fishing pole, small #6 trebble hooks and power bait for catching great tasting, little brook trout for the lake just a few miles above the trail head from the Portals campground. Good luck!

In Ashtabula in the Ashtabula River towards the mouth is a great place. Actually you want to go to Walnut Beach and go behind the break wall behind the water company. There is a cove there that the pike spawn at in the spring when the water rises to about 40 to 45 degrees. There is alot of vegetation which they like. You will probably have to use a top water buzz bait as plugs will get tangled in all the vegetation. You'll have to walk in. I think they blocked it off now. Also in the harbor you can drive back into the marina on the railroad track side and fish the inlet there but you have to do it before the boats are docked there because they won't let you in when the boats are there unless you know somebody that has a boat docked there.

I went to Caesar's Pocono Palace in Pennsylvania.  Very, very nice.  We had a three-story suite with our own swimming pool in the room and (for 4 days, 3 nights, airfare and meals included) we only paid $2500.  Well worth every penny.  Have a look at their website!

No question for me. Summer! I would be outside on the water. I get cabin fever in the winter. I live in a spot that can get very cold, but we never seem to get snow. I'm sure with the snow (instead of the massive rain) it would be just amazingly beautiful! But something about summer, being outside, even the humidity and sweat make you feel healthy. I can't wait for warm weather!

If you've ever been to Laughlin Nevada...On "Harley" weekend they have alot of outdoor concert's! Especially in front of the "Flamingo"! And everyone including band members are all snockered off their butz!! I  would go to one of those "Harley" weekends, which are always in April, about the second week of April, I know cuz I use to live there! However, just go under one of those outdoor concert's and start talking to anyone by the stages, and see if anyone will allow you to talk too, any of their "Roadeez" their the guys, that load & unload for the bands! Hey, even the "Roadeez" could probably just hand you some T-shirts, just ask them! Tell them you'll do anything "Legal" to help! Good-Luck, Honey! Its a hard life, living on the road, so just make sure, you know what your doing first, before you do it, okay, for me, please. Thank-you, & God Speed to you mate!!!!

I'm going to the North of Italy for Christmas to Lake Garda.  It is lovely there at Christmas.  Venice is a bit boring and not much open.  Don't forget just because you are on holiday it doesn't mean that all the shops and attractions will be open!  Hope you have fun!

In North Carolina?  I'm quite familiar with the area.  If you are looking for vertical, try a house in Banner Elk, which is a town at smack in between of Sugar Mtn. (1200 feet of vertical, the best in NC) and Ski Beech (800 feet of vertical).  They are rather exspensive, though.  You could check out houses around Seven Devils, which is where Hawksnest (600 feet of vertical drop) is situated.  Hawksnest is a little backcountry resort with an FIS-rated slope (Top Gun, but it's hardly ever open) and houses there shouldn't be as expensive as the ones around Banner Elk.  Or you could look for a house around Blowing Rock or Boone, around Appalachian Ski Mtn.  It would probably be more expensive than around the Seven Devils area.  App happens to be my favorite resort because of the friendly staff.  I am never lonely at App, because I have so many friends among the ski patrol and instructors!

O.K. first hand experience here, Chris and i set sail in three ships, after being on the big water for about 2 months, the ships started breaking up and Chris said "Look, that's American wood" i said "Chris the ships are breaking up on us." About that time the guy in the crows nest said "LAND" We got real close to the shore and could see the native Americans celebrating "Not have been discovered yet day", with beer and pizza, then this fine looking little indian girl came running out to the water's edge and said "What are ya'll doing coming around here in those ships", Chris said "We come to discover ya'll, America" she said "y'all need to discover your butt away from here" But, we went ashore and smoked the peace pipe (good stuff), eat pizza and drank some beer with the native Americans, I tried to tell the chief, "Hey when thay start talking about reservations, they ain't talking about no motel man.", but he act like he didn't hear me. That's the way it was back in 1492, just a few short years ago.***

i always look at ebay motors...then my second step to find a boat in NEXT TO NEW condish. would be a local police/sheriff auction the sheriff's harbor partol where i live has about three auctions a year...most vessels are not new though, but for instance i know that at the last one someone bought a 04 wave runner for under a grand...so look at that...after that i know an irs-repo auction is always a great bet...and if all else fails, go out to the most redneck area you can find, all rednecks have boats, and will sell them cheap ( i bought a 03 ski boat for 9 grand out in riverside ca. where as where i live orange county ca. the boat would be like 16 grand)\n\n\nhope this helps!!!

Cumberland Lake is great. Its a beautiful park w/ cabins.  Stonelick state park has 2 cabins (small state park).  I really recommend Cumberland lake! You could spend the whole summer at this lake and never see the same point twice! HAVE FUN!!! :)\nAlso, I recommend Kellys Island Lake Erie.  They dont have cabins but you can stay in the old houses of the town! Very beautiful too! Look it up.

I just heard that Prince will be performing every weekend there.  Seeing him live makes me want to f--k like a bunny rabbit, every time!\n\nAside from that, get a room with a jacuzzi.  Nothing, and I mean nothing, does more for me & my boyfriend than getting hot and heavy in the tub!

Daytona Beach is nice, we stayed on Daytona Beach shores, just South of Daytona Beach, our hotel was right on the beach with balconies looking over the water. We stayed at a place called Perry's Ocean Edge. When we were there we went deep-sea fishing out of Ponce Inlet, only a few minute drive south. WE had good catches of Amberjack, some real nice ones too, we went out with Critter Fleet Charters, they have a website, critterfleet.com, i think, or search for it. They were really nice, supplied bait, tackle, and everything. They had fish cleaning available too. I would recomend both of these places. Check out the websites, i don't know the website for Perry's but you can search it.See what you think. There's also a lot to do around the southern daytona area. There is a few boardwalks, one in downtown daytona and one south of daytona. Also there is a lighthouse in Ponce Inlet, just a few minutes south from Daytona. Lots of nice restaurants, mini-golf courses, lots of stuff to do. check it out.
