Corn Roast 2004
'Strippers, Marshmallows & Sun'
September 10 - 12, 2004

.....
.....
Like most other weekends, things started off innocently enough,
with a pleasant boat ride on a beautiful, sunny Friday afternoon
(one of the few for 2004).



.....
Friday evening rolled around & it was time for Anchor Girl to mix up some Orange Slurp pies, while Sharon took a break
from her set.



.....
Thanks to the Other Frank for getting some of the juicy pics
for this page - PLUS the year end video!
Why does 'The Stripper' keep playing in my head??



..........
Novice Rotten Rower Omer stands back from the action
- fearing that Pat's actions might get out of hand.
Someone get out of hand on the Row?
Nonsense :-)



.....
John & Peter stuck around for a beer & some 'entertainment'.



.....
Help me out with these next two shots;
'Three Blind Mice' ??



.....
Or;
'Three Stooges' ?



.....
I always said my boat had a nice rear end :-)



.....
I though we did the silly hats thing already . . .



.....
Hey - you guys on the dock - it's dancing time!!



.....
"It's ok Sharon, just keep holding me up & I'll be fine . . ."



.....
"It's ok Paul, just keep holding me up & I'll be fine . . ."



.....
Someone have another drink for Al to pour down his shirt ??



.....
Ok, it seems it was a repeat for silly hats night.
At least Diane isn't getting out of hand . . .



.....
Forget it. I spoke too early.



.....
Oh Burt, I never knew you had that effect on Diane!
Looks like you got her all warmed up . . .



.....
Warmed up - I'll say !!!



.....
NOW I know why I kept hearing 'The Stripper' :-)



.....
Seems Peetah had to go fishing for a wayward piece
of Diane's 'costume'. . . .



.....
 . . . While Stevie points out where she was aiming.
Well, at least she's settled down for the evening.



.....
Darn! spoke too early AGAIN!



.......
"H E L P ! ! !"



.....
Steve explains to Omer that this kind of stuff is very rare on the Row & that he shouldn't be alarmed;
"You'll see tomorrow, at the Corn Roast - everyone will be
very well behaved . . . In fact, I think I'm going to hit the sack,
as I have to get up early tomorrow morning to clean my teeth . . ."



.....
D'OH! Looks like morning (and a few other things) came up
earlier than Steve had anticipated.
(For the record - I did not take this sick photo and
I would never think of doing such a disgusting thing.
I mean really, what would I do with such a picture if I had taken it?)



.....
Another sunny day on Saturday. That was TWO days in a row - must have been a record for the year.
This is on the west side of Fox Island,
looking southward into Cooks Bay.



.....
Sure Kevin, you were smiling then - before poopy diapers & midnight feedings.
Plus, Jason wasn't born yet, either.



.....
Bill - never said 'Smile!'



.....
The back of the line (story of my life) at the corn roast.



.....
"So, your telling me that he isn't on any sort of medication?"
(Didn't think I could hear you, eh Omer?)



.....
Awe, shucks!
Better getting cracking on that corn there, Hugh
- we have a big crowd waiting . . .



.....
 . . . . And they're starting to get ugly . . .


.....
Better get cracking on them hot dogs there, Josh
- we have a big crowd waiting . . .



.....
 . . . And you heard how they're getting . . .



.....
After the corn & dogs, everyone settled down for
a peaceful, relaxing fire.



.....
Larry made sure everyone was behaving . . .



.....
Pat made sure that her Zambooka wasn't going stale . . .



.....
These guys made sure the table didn't blow away. . .



.....
And Dave made sure to use both hands to steady his walking.



.....
Alrighty - what's with Dom & the marshmallow?



.....
Seems something's amiss . . .



.....
I wonder who started the whole marshmallow fight, anyway??



.....
And, I wonder how Steve got white, gooey stuff all
over his hands . . .
Well, at least he doesn't have to worry about his teeth :-)



.....
Still trying to figure out what the hell that thing was that Al's
cousin was playing (with).



.....
Looks like Sunday morning came way too early for Paul.
Actually, I think most mornings come too early for him :-)



.....
What time did you kids say you were up to - 5:00 a.m.?
That's the sign of a successful Corn Roast.



.....
Sunday on the water & it was sunny again.
All in all, a really great weekend!!!



.....
Anchor Girl enjoys one of the last rides aboard 'Boogaboo II'.



.....
Heading back into port.



:-)
