Any news on Bucksaw today?

How are the repairs coming along? Is there an anticipated re-open date for the restaurant/Marina?

Thanks!

No sure on a open date. Looks like they have the docks back straight but still working on the ramp or walkdown to the marina from the parking lot. Lots of activity going on there this morning. Camoboat they were hit by the crazy wind storm that came through two weeks ago. Tore up stuff pretty bad. Poor Jim has had nothing but bad luck since he bought the place. But he keeps on going and does not let it bother him. Just repairs what needs it and keeps making improvements where he can.

Thanks for the update. Must be getting close if they are working on the walkway. I'm sure they had to get everything else in place and anchored securely before they put the walkway in. Be glad when they reopen, good folks and a great place to fish out of. Love their B&G's and hot coffee for breakfast too!

I to love doing bussiness ther. Not ever anything I need but try to at least by a candybar and a coke. Sometimes a few minnows or lunch. Jim has made a lot of improvements over the last few years. Just think what he could have done if not for a few storms and dealing with high water every year since he has had it.

I know he is well respected in the Kansas City office of the Corps of Engineers for the way he has cleaned the place up and the quaility of his customer service.

We do the same thing J15, we always try to send some business their way when we are down there, always a meal or two and a soda for the road as we head out. I know the ramp is free to use, we just feel guilty using their facilities and nothing else.

Pork tenderloins huh? Oh man, will have to try that, I love those things. We live in Jeff City and every time we drive down we always stop at Griffs in Sedalia for a pork tenderloin; they are very good too.

BUCKSAW = PORK TENDERLOIN! Yes they have good ones! I like to go in and get them covered with mashed potatoes and gravy! Granted it kind of makes it a little hard to get back into the boat but oh are they so good!
