And so begins our annual 7th TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot.
Thank you humble gunner for the graphic.
TexasCowboy (aka COB1) was a true Texas gentleman, great friend, patriot, and a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment. It is truly an honor to continue a tradition he started many years ago, hosting shoots for FRiends around the great state of Texas.
Many FReepers are coming into town on Thursday so that they can have a tourist day on Friday. Those lucky people are going to be made (a good) miserable Thursday evening by enjoying TheMom’s Kick Ass Enchilada’s.
The only set tourist place is The Lady Lex.
Friday evening we will meet at Captain Benny’s, 103 Fulton Beach Road Fulton, TX 78382, at 8:00 p.m., for a delicious seafood dinner. (They do not take credit cards or serve liquor ~ so remember to bring your cash & booze.)
Saturday morning we meet for breakfast at Alice Faye’s, 910 North Fulton Beach Road, Fulton, TX 78358, at 8:00 a.m. The shoot is scheduled to start at 10:00 a.m. at, Schwenke’s Gun & Pistol Range, 4407 FM 1069 Aransas Pass, TX, 78336. Mr. Schwenke has reserved the 25 yard shooting station for our group to use as “home base”. The only major rule at this range is do not shoot the livestock. A BBQ lunch will be served at 12:30ish.
Once the shooting is done some of us will be going to the Rockport Seafair, while others will go back to the Pelican Bay cottages for some R&R. Saturday evening will be filled with yummy junk food and margaritas!
According to the forecast, it looks as the weather will be perfect. Lows in the mid-sixty’s, highs in the mid-eighty’s.
C’mon down next time. It would be awesome to meet another Foxhole Veteran!
Safe travels Jim. It was very good to see and talk with you again!
I’m glad you enjoyed the shootin’ and Texas hospitality.
Thank you very much. It was very enjoyable. We love Texas!
You ask a wise question Miss.
I herd cats engineers on a daily basis. It does have it's challenges.
Another great TCMS for the record books!
I know y’all enjoyed getting your @sses whooped at the pool table. I know I enjoyed it.
Heh.
Had a blast, guys.
Shark!
You know it, baby. ;p
(It’ll be our little secret that y’all had to tell me which ball from which angle. Nobody ever has to know.)
BTTT
Y'all don't be tearing up Elgin, now.. that's my home town!
Bryan likes y'all so much that he wants to go again next year. That was no mean feat on y'all's part. As I said, it took me two years to get him to go, but it only took you a few days to make him want to go back again. Thanks!!
The only minus in all those pluses was the humidity. Heat=ok, humidity=not so much, but bearable. Unfortunately, just as I was getting used to it, it was time to go.
I actually cried as we were driving away.
What are you gonna do with the soap I bring next year if y'all don't use what I gave ya this time?
And no shootin' it to death, either. It's good soap, but it will make a gooey mess out in the rain.
More colors next year. I should have my craft room unpacked by then, so I don't have to search through packed boxes of crafty stuff for my micas and other coloring agents.
Again, thank y'all!
I figured as much. “Which one’s the 8 ball,” she asks, moments before running the table. She walks over to the stack of 20 dollar bills, smiles innocently, and pockets them.
Had you pegged from the beginning. ;)
I *knew* you’d love the Waaaaahhhh video. Lol! Haven’t hit that photo thread, but I will! Read it and it’s hi-larry-ous!
Yee Haw round em up:-)

God Bless the enjoyment and safety of all.
Texas.
It *pleases* me.
I love you too pooky. It was beyond great meeting you. Thanks for the BackGasms, and for keeping your husband from beating me to a pulp afterwards. The soap is cool....
I like you cuz you’re mostly made out of love.
Hubby watched it and also said “waaaaaahhhoooo”.....what kind of gun was that?”. LOL!!
