Woohooo, It’s The 2019 Woody Boater Annual Virtual Holiday Party. Come On In.

We spent all night decorating the tree!

Welcome, come on in and grab a cocktail, and shrimp. Mfine is doing some bacon is in the smoker and Zip is out back in the car port having a smoke with his brother Len who lives in Omaha. Hey. It is what it is.

Zip and Len talking about old times. Like the time Len ripped the face off his caretaker. Dont judge…

We have plenty of dock space

We set up a pool indoors for you crazy swingers

The bar is open

The folks at the Antique Boat Museum sent us a wonder set of trees

We invited Larry and some others we all miss now.

And low and behold. Larry Made it.

Grab a cocktail

 

Lilly is mixing up another batch!

We have been grilling up some Chicken On A Stick!

Bridget Bardot brought a wonderful tree and a stray dog.

Don’t eat the Sushi. Been sitting out for a while.

Hold on. Crocket and Tubbs are here. Now its gonna get real.

Darla is here and just posing. Which if no one complains about is just fine with me.

Jims Grandma is here, I swear she doesnt look a day older.

So.. We invited In Sync, they couldn’t make it. And so then we tried the Back Street Boys. Nope. But we did get this Korean Boy Back. The Kim Kids. Hey.. It’s music. Free Music. Sadly they will all be sent to a Work Camp when they return. But enjoy now.

Oh boy! Listen, I gotta step away from the computer for a sec. We hope you all enjoy the party. I will be right back.

    The Michigan gang just pulled in and we are getting tied up. We brought a couple cases of Bells and some Dearborn sausage. Somebody come down to the dock and show us how to get to the party!

      I’m helping Ronald load up the bourbon. Knob Creek Single Barrel, 120 proof. Good stuff! (We’re saving the Maker’s Mark for Derby Day)

      My first toast goes to Santa Staib.

    Merry Christmas from Michigan where the boats are all tucked away for a long winters’ nap with visions of new parts coming from Santa “Staib” pulled by his trusty steed “Jaxon”.

    Can someone from PA bring some Yuengling to the party? We can’t get it here.

    Merry Christmas to all! I just wish I was that stray Dog with Bridgette……hell, I would be a lap dog for Bridgette…..I may have a chance since Troy is not old enough to know who Bardot even is….

    I can be designated driver for any and all…..be careful and All the Best to All the Rest.

    John in Va.

    Working on the varnish moonshine. Still tweeking the recipe. Here is my 21 yo helper after sampling the 1st run. Should have this straightened out but lunchtime for the party.

    Merry Christmas from a long-term lurker in the UK…..although I can’t have been that good at lurking because someone noticed and sent me an invitation. Been hanging around outside for hours waiting for Troy to arrive with his cousins but I guess they’re still recovering from the pre-party?

    Thanks, Matt, for the daily injection of woodiness.

    Terry says:

    I’m setting on the aft deck enjoying my spiked coffee. It’s a windy, sunny warm day here on the Halifax river in Daytona Beach. Cheers everyone.

    What a group attending the festivities! Is it considered crashing the party when someone “on the cusp” shows up? I will see everyone in 2020..Sunnyland, I love everything about this show. God bless and happiest of holidays to each and every one of my fellow boaters.🌲🎉🍷

      Can you pick out all your WoodyBoater friends?

      There’s Matt, M-Fine, Greg L, Chad, John in VA, Texx, Hamster, Mark, Terry, Bob, Jim, and of course yours truly.

      If you have any questions I am sure WoodyGal can help you identify us all.

    I’m bringing along the Junkyard Sisters from Old Car City – – They want to visit their Florida cousins – –

    Rick says:

    Brought Turtleman with me. He’s been down since his show was cancelled like 10 years ago so I figured he needed a party.

    John Baas says:

    Merry Christmas from Dauphin Island. Afraid the ferry doesn’t go far enough to make the party. We’re skipping the snow this year. Get nuts at the party.

  19. Brian
    Brian says:

    Such a great annual event. I’m just happy to be here. I brought some meatballs but it looks like others did too. I’ll just put them on the table over here, say hello to others (making my appearance) and slip out before this place gets out of hand. Looking forward to Matt’s post tomorrow showing hung over monkeys, trashed homes with empty beer cans strewn about, etc. Don’t worry Matt, we can all come back tomorrow and tidy up a bit. Once again, thanks for hosting! Now, let’s move this party to Sweet Pea!

    WoodyGal says:

    Glad the Ouiji board was able to get through to Larry, he’d hate to miss a party! Especially with Troys friends.
    Happy Holidays to all!

    Troy in ANE says:

    HEY MATT!

    Look who stopped in for a visit! We haven’t seen her in years, heck she started the whole, now famous, “Sausage” thing!

    There she was just sitting off in the corner. I think Jaxon sniffed her out.

    More beer is on the way. Even though we have not realized that Strohs is no longer brewed in Mi.
