"If folks from this forum were to get together there would have to be some sort of contest to finally settle this eternal battle of green vs blue vs orange vs all others."
If the contest were waistband size, I would have to immediately concede to NCRUNCH re:his pic 13...

Let's see I have several questions to answerer here.
I do not have quarters for 12 couples,just my home and the back forty which would be terrific but the potty line could get unbearably long. But I'll bet we could fix all of the above in short order..
The closest commercial airport is Tulsa OK 76 miles and the closest regional airport is Joplin MO. 56 miles..
This neck of the woods is called Green Country and basically materialized around the first major dam project in the 1940's ( still only one in 5 areas where you can own lake front to the water (some 60,000 acre feet of surface) with 1300 miles of shore line!!
No I do not work for the Chamber of Commerce!! But Rand McNally rated it as one of the top 5 retirement sites in the 90's, and it still is for me!!

I need to make a correcction to the acre feet contained in grand lake..
Official:Pool elevation is 742.33 feet on Saturday 28Aug04 Time: 2000 hours.
At this elevation the total amount of water stored in Grand Lake O' The Cherokees, Pensacola Dm is 1551521 acre-feet.
Now How would I house 12 couples ? There are many resorts here for visitors from Shanglara to Motorhomes to public camping sites, not to mention my back forty!!

Yes I did forget XNA airport I picked up some folks 3 years ago today and the trip to and from there hits every cow pasture in 3 counties ... so I normally just get on the interstate and spend my 1&1/2 hours at 70 MPH. It normally is cheaper to fly into XNA on puddle jumpers than The main jet routes out of Tulsa!! Just Habit for me to go to Tulsa actual time Driving is close for all 3.
Land is not cheap anywhere and basically unavailable here on the lake!! price is no longer the object, just trying to find lakefront is!
I'm in the book stop by next time you pass through our place!

Ok more good info, WX is always changeable here at Grand lake. March is the start of Spring time and along comes differential heating , I don't tie up A/C here due to the fact I am not interested in getting up a 3:am to move it in the face of T-Storms...
I will post a synopis of WX for this area in a link as most of us aviators know wx is the one variable we are not smart enough to change!!

I'm amphibian proof as I have a rocky shoreline , yes when I lower my dock (its on a rail system w/winch)into the water I have 12 ' of water but in the spring (anytime for that mater T-storms come on us suddenly due to the differential heating!!
Most welcome to tie up here but need to know what type and wing height above water line as I have a welded canopy above my boat and not sure you can get wing clearance!! we might be able to rig a triangle mooring arrangement from the tail!

See if this helps and I will get other meteorically data for you!
