Chuckie Goes for a 72 Hour Swim...
« Reply #-1 on: April 24, 2016, 01:57:31 AM »
I've been watching the SV Chuck posts and wanting to "jump in." Finally the timing is right - off early (7pm) tonight and will be off at about 6pm on Tuesday... Decide to take the plunge... About a 3# Chuck, a bit of Olive Oil to make the rub stick - a little salt, W.O.W. and M-3. Into the spa at 131* F.

But first, a quick pic of my lovely daughters (am I braggin'? Yep! - But I am very glad they have a pretty mom!) - Emma's Sr. Prom, and Rocky (a Sophomore) at her 1st prom with their boyfriends.

In the imortal words of he infamous Sparky - "Let the movie begin..."

David, your little girls have turned into young ladies before our very eyes! And you have good reason to brag pops! :D
As for the hot tub.....I'm watching,  it's looking good so far!

Beautiful girls David! I am sure those good genes came from both parents.

I like low and slow but I don't think I could ever wait 72 hours to cook something.

Gene, as I thought about your comment - you are right! You've seen them here (and on the SOG) forum since they were very young... wow! Not sure how that makes me feel. It is very cool that you have shared their journey from kid to young lady, but it also means you've shared my journey to old age...  ;D :(

I have enjoyed the journey, and sharing it. I think I should collect a bunch of the pictures from the posts and make a silent movie... thanks for the inspiration.

THAT is certainly true! Thank goodness, or I'd NEVER get them married off...

Ken, I hear you. But now that I am back in retail - working open to close 4 - 5 days a week, waiting is required...

I had the same dilemma, Mike. My choice is guided by work hours. Sometime I DO want to try the 96 hour swim.

David seeing Emma's and Rocky's transformation from cute little lassies to beautiful young ladies has been a pleasure. You have much to be proud of buddy!
And it is always a good thing to share our journies with friends!  ;)

It IS a good thing to share our journeys with friends... and I have been blessed with the opportunity to do that.

Thank you!
