BUSTING A MOVE!!!!!!!

BUSTING A MOVE!!!!!!! - 05/01/14 11:33 PM

I haven't been able to visit here much lately as I've been about as busy I my body will let me be. Some of y'all know how I hate wake boats and threatened to move to Bob Sandlin last year.
Well, earlier this year I talked to several people that are full time RV'ers about parks on Fork and was seriously giving it some thought. I lived out of an RV for approx. 8-9 months a year for the 15 years that I was an insurance adjuster and really enjoyed it. A long time friend, Floyd Fowler, that I hadn't seen in a couple of months came over a couple of months ago and informed me that he and his brother, Arlon had purchased some land and were in the beginning stages of developing an RV park on Lake Fork. After some lengthy discussions and a very quick "Let's do it" from Mrs. Tboxfish, plans were made to downsize, sell all the [censored] that we had accumulated over the last 35yrs that we don't need and move to Fork banana
Josh (Bonehead) found me a great deal on a slightly used 34' Cedar Creek RV with 3 slideouts thumb

It has a tarp underpinning set-up that goes completely around the entire trailer for storage of my fish fryers and such.

Belinda has a storage building that was set-up onsite yesterday that she will make her and sell her baits out of thumb


We will on the west leg of fork just around a point from the 515 west bridge and Belinda's shop will be right on Hwy 515



My eldest daughter will graduate on May 20th from the RN program and the last day of school for her kids is on the 30th. She plans to move to College Station that weekend, as she already has a house leased and we will pull out right behind her bannana2
If they weren't still here, we would already be moved, but that's OK, as we still have a lot of stuff to get rid of.
If anybody is planning to come to Fork this summer, stop by & say "Hi".
We are going to be the Park Hosts and I can't wait to get there woot
Winnie Meat and I took the boat over there Tuesday to have a look around and caught fish in our cove even with the severe winds that were blowing.

Ha, Got a buddy coming this weekend that is buying my pool table. 1 armed bandit, 2 pairs of cougar paws, harness and climbing rope. No more roofs for me!
And the ditch pickle chasers don't have nothing on the wake boats! At least on Fork you can get away from the boat lanes and still fish. Here on Cypress when the crappie move out to their summer haunts, you have to follow them right out into the pleasure boaters playground bang

Thanks everybody, seems like it's taking forever, but as I set here and look at the calendar, it's only 27 days away banana
I took the young man, Conner over Saturday that has been cleaning and waxing my RV. He did a lot of work on Belinda's building. Winnie Meat is coming today and we will gather more materials today, and he is going to finish the wiring, insulate and start hanging walls and ceiling. After that, work tables will be the only big item left to do clap
Being a carpenter myself and not being physically able to work is very frustrating to say the least, but I'm thankful I have friends to help out flehan

As I said before, if anybody is in the area, please stop by and we'll wet a line or at least, discuss the possibility rolfmao

Way to go, Todd! Looks like a great setup! I know who to talk to for Fork advice now.

BTW, thanks for the samples.
