·The Warbucks & I hatched this idea while sitting on the beach at Tahoe a month ago...
Wouldn't it be a total blast to get a group of us together to rent a houseboat at Shasta for a week? It could be a floating poker party!
If we did this, I'm hoping that my wife isn't the only one who wants nothing to do with poker. There's gotta be some other people along that would totally skip the poker thing. But we could hang out and do lake stuff during the day and it wouldn't it be totally cool to set up a small table on the roof (I've got an octagon) and play cards at night?!?!?!
I think it's too late for this year, but we could start to see who's interested and maybe plan something for next spring. If you go before Memorial Day you can get off-season rates. On just my first look at places, I found a big boat that says it can sleep 16. I saw the floorplan and realistically it probably sleeps 10 adults. If we did have 5 couples, it'd be about $500 per couple for 5 nights, plus food and incidentals...no more than any other vacation I guess. The damned boat is furnished nicer than my house and has even got a spa on the bridge, right next to where we set up the poker table! We could also tow my boat along for skiing or just horsing around during the day too.
Check this place out...

I think the Warbucks and us would be totally up for it. Need at least three other couples to make it affordable. Would anybody do it???
