Trying to host a live thread for our "Smart Phones".

Thanks for the ping! I will try! :-)

I have been encouraged to post some of my pix here (rather than just a link).. so here it goes. I started with about 400 pix from Friday/Sat. So what I published on FB is just a small amount. When you load them onto Facebook there is a significant reduction in size. They will still be large here but not the 3MB monsters that I take.

reminder that all the posted pix I have are at the Facebook site for public viewing. When you go to the link you can double click on first pix & advance them manually (don't think FB has a slide show feature). Also use Picasa as a server but so many of the attendees are on FB that I decided to go with it. Thanks ElGato for tagging your pix.. Please any of the rest of your feel free to do the same. I did just a couple of you so you would have the reference on your wall.

The great place for our breakfast & meet up Saturday morning. Food was great & there lovely ladies who were servers could NOT be nicer or more efficient

Steve getting his "cap shooter" set up.

The little sweetie & her dad.

The chef! cpdiii (in white) provided all the meats & a LOT of gear to haul to get things going. He is shown here with a friend he recruited to help him. They have been close friends since their teenage years.

One of several areas where we were "set up" for shooting. We had a large area of the very large shooting range.

Mylife == our wonderful host for the event!

Took a series of these pix & played around with captioning. Posted some of the blank ones so you could do the same.. go for it!

Breakfast at the Cotton Gin fell short of the usual standards this year.
It’s difficult to get eggs to 22 folks all at the same time while keeping them piping hot, especially if half the folks are off smoking when breakfast arrives LoL

It’s still a great place to swing by, as many bikers and folks in search of a good meal will attest.
The home style lunches rock and the coconut cream pie is a foot high!

I am still kinda ticked that they got my reservations wrong.
I had reserved the sun room on the ground floor.

Ah well, cum se cum sa...

[The Mayor]

Excellent!!

[DollyCali]

you had in mind a scenario and so were disappointed. Most of us came with no agenda & were very pleased. I think we were all served in a timely manner. I liked the room (set off a bit) and the food was excellent.

You can be very proud of the entire day.. restaurant, range & weather (with a lot of help from God!)...you did a great job

[luvie]

Great memories! So glad you were there with us!

Thank you for posting these delightful pictures for those of us who were pining to be with you in fact and not simply in spirit. They’re wonderful.

Thanks for the pics. BTTT!

[luvie]

Glad you enjoyed them. You need to be there next time! :)

[luvie]

You need to come next time...we ZOT stuff for real! *grin*

[TheOldLady]

My sweet friend, after seeing your nice face, I’m looking forward to meeting you IRL. Besides, I have a PS90 to show off, and gunner wants to fondle it. He “suggested” that Hubby and I should shoot “with FReepers,” and coming from him, that’s an order!

The percent certainty that we’ll be there next time is getting higher all the time.

I am still kinda ticked that they got my reservations wrong.

I was just about to address that rifle but I have to get laundry done LoL

Your “occupy the range” sticker is now prominently displayed on the steel door to the pistol range at Ammo depot.
Mickey was most pleased with it.

[luvie]

Well, I don’t know about you, but MY breakfast was delicious. The waitresses were a bit overwhelmed, but they did the best they could.

We are a bit like herding cats. :)

[mylife]

Just cleared the rifle with an old mosin nagant cleaning rod and a rubber mallet ☺

[mylife]

Yes, it is like herding cats LoL!
