OK you all realize that I can take being the butt of all jokes, so here it is Giligan hat, bell bottoms, and no shoes, I hope I am not the only one that has the ba#%s to do this, sent it to my old girlfriend at her work to give her a laugh. Pictures please, dont make me be the only one.          Ken...............

The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed, if not for the courage of the fearless crew the minnow would be lost , the monnow would be lost, the ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted isle, with Giligan the Skipper too, the millionare and his wife, the movie star, the professor ,and Mary Ann here on Giligans Isle. I know, I know allready, no one with a picture yet ??? wheres your picture James T ???

Lost Pilot Theme

 
  In tropical sea is a tropic port, 
  Vacation fun is the favorite sport. 
  This is the place where the tourists flock, 
  Renting the boats at the busy dock. 
 
  Two secretaries from the U-S-A, 
  Sail on the Minnow this lovely day. 
  A high school teacher is next aboard, 
  All taking trip that they can not afford. 
 
  The next two people are millionaires, 
  They got no worries, they got no cares. 
  They climb aboard and they step inside, 
  With just enough bags for a six-hour ride. 
 
  Tourists come, tourists go, 
  Tourists touring to and fro. 
 
  These five nice tourists, they take this trip, 
  Relaxing on deck on this little ship. 
  The weather is clear and the sun is hot, 
       
  (Spoken) The weather is clear? I think it is not! 
 
  Tourists come, tourists go, 
  Tourists tossing to and fro. 
 
  The captain is brave, he's  Carrrrumba! What a storm! 
  The captain is brave, he's a fearless man, 
  And Gilligan helps him all that he can. 
  The wheel, she break and lose all control, 
  S.S. Minnow do the rock-and-roll. 
 
  The sea is now calm and the weather grand, 
  Where is the Minnow upon the sand? 
  What happen now will bring you a smile, 
  The adventures of Gilligan,   
  And the Skipper,
  And the Millionaire,
  And Mrs. Millionaire,
  And the other tourists,
  On Gilligan's Isle!
 
Closing credits song (Same tune), 
 
  We leave all our friends on this tropic shore, 
  Perhaps they will be here forevermore. 
  Maybe a rescue will set them free, 
  Tune in next week and then you will see.

THE BALLAD OF GILLIGAN'S ISLE

There, ANY QUESTIONS ??? LOL I think they were dune buggys on the island, they just never found them. Here I had this picture on another site, I guess its Skipper and Mary Ann, yes my cousin and her boy friend, hes the chief of detectives here now, and she is half indian on her dads side, so if you all dont hear from me in a while I got arrested, or scalped for posting their pictures.        Ken...........

Bad hats and buggies seem to go together back in the days. My dad in San Felipe in 1971 with an all leather hat purchased in the one of many tourist trap stores in Baja that all sold the same stuff. He always wore that hat when driving the Manx after that. I was always embarrassed.
By Allison Daytona Ken Date 2011-02-02 18:39
Great picture, Dont feel bad my dad used to ride by the all girls college here in Rock Hill SC, problem was he didnt keep a good eye on the gas, Man its embarassing to run out of gas in front of pretty girls, My Uncle Thomas is in his late 70s and stll drives his Dune Buggy, he wears a leather cowboy hat. Thanks for sharing your picture, WHOS NEXT ???                 Ken.......................

  Speaking again of bad hats and buggies. The person wearing the lettermans jacket and another really bad hat is me. So I guess bad hats and buggies runs in my family.

We were having a great day on our trek around the Bahia de San Quintin till the radiator in Tom's Manx let go.

Wink.
By Allison Daytona Ken Date 2011-02-10 14:07
RADIATOR ????? When I see a buggy and smoke I think blown engine or wireing, you sure you didnt burn the hamburgers on the grille. LOL, Im jelouse you folks really had it made with places to drive your buggys, I got about 3 years of driving on the beaches here in the south before they made it illegal, still a place at carolina beach in NC you can drive with a purchased permit, and I believe there are places in the outer banks to ride on the beach, I guess those old hat traditions carried on in a way, maby that is why I had the Gilligans hat, LOL, great pictures !!!                 Ken...................
By Manx102 M 2478 Date 2011-02-10 23:28 Edited 2011-02-11 00:48
  Ken... I do not think we burned the hamburgers that day.LOL  But it does look like it is time to get them off the old Weber grill.
  Oh.... by the way your Gilligan hat is WAY cooler than our family's hats.

As far as beaches you can drive on in California.
Back in the day we had 14 miles of beach and dunes alone open at Pismo.
Which made it a great place for drivers training for me and my friend in his dad's buggy.

Today it is about 2 miles of beach and dunes still opened to drive on with a large part of it pictured here. It is the last place in California you can still drive on the beach. Not such a good place for young drivers training. Unless you get a quite day like we did with our friend Coby pictured here with my wife.
By Allison Daytona Ken Date 2011-02-11 00:10
You mean Webber makes a grill, lol, Yea that is about what they have at Carolina beach in NC 2 or 3 miles, It is really for fisherman to surf fish and they will sell you a permit, I bet even at that there is probably a sign saying, no littering, no motorcycles, no dune buggys, no swimming, no fun !!!            Ken............
By Lloyd B 2301 Date 2011-02-11 03:35
Have not been there yet, but have been told it is a great place to play!

Might be a little bit of a trip for you guys, but lots of sand!
