Title: OT -- JRiver company cruise
Post by: JimH on August 29, 2005, 10:23:21 am

We had a company get-together last night in the form of a boat cruise on a big lake west of Minneapolis.

You can see the boat arriving at the dock, us standing around waiting, several pictures of the whole group, and a few other random shots.

It was about as nice an evening and as pleasant an experience as you could imagine.

Did anyone "purify themselves" in Lake Minnetonka?  ;)

Hi,

Nice pictures, JRiver on a lake, quite logical in a way !

Galley, is there a "purifying" legend about this lake ?

The phrase "Purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka" is known from Prince's Purple Rain movie:

I quess there must be some historical legends behind it.

Looks like a great time. Can someone identify some of the people in the photos, in particular the ones that post here, so we can associate a name with a face?

I think it'd be more fun if people guessed. 

We'll call it "Where's Gateley?"

Hi Raymond!  Hope you're well there.  Send an e-mail when you have time, and let me know what's happened since we talked last.

Some friends and I took a cruise out on Lake George, NY last weekend, it was a great day.

I live about 5 miles from the southern end of the 32 miles long lake. Here's some more pix of the lake:

I'm still getting the hang of uploading photos and resizing etc, so excuse some the fuzzy pix, Jay.

Gene (old new guy)

Ruthan (and a sliver of John, her husband)
Jim Nordgaard (came to JRiver during the Middle Ages)
