Chronicles of party barge captain
This short story really hit close to home for me. Being a pleasure boat captain myself for decades on a large recreational lake, I have personally witnessed some of the very outlandish behaviors of (LANDLUBBERS) the author depicts. I have to admit this story made me laugh...
Refreshing, No Filter
What a hoot!!! Love Captain Ricks comments on his guests. Actually really refreshing that he is so candid about his experiences. No filter!! Love it
living the dream LAKESIDE
Cant wait for summer on The Lake this year. Great storytelling and full of colorful characters. Captain Rick keeps you laughing and wondering what is going to happen next. Plus fun music references that made me feel like i was there.
There is real people to learn from on this planet!
This story is so funny. Couldn't stop reading til the end. Haven't laughed so much! A must read!
The Story Too Wild To Print
One story didn't make it into the book. Too outrageous. Too unbelievable. Too much.
