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.
I miss all of you, too. I have all day while I was at work.
I felt so...alone.... :)
Darn shame we can only get together once a year, except for
the ones that live close to one another!
YOU are beautiful...inside and out! (((hugs)))
You actually listened to my ate-up explanation of that? ;-)
Accuracy, schmaccuracy. It shoots fireballs and makes a big noise.
When I woke my son up for school Tuesday morning, I got all choked up. :( I am missing you too. June is too far away. I might need a fix between now and then.
*SMILING*SMILING*SMILING*
FReeper MEN ROCK, particularly almost all y'all from Texas and one from Ohio and Georgia!! I know you get this. :)
You betcha!
Great for a Cowboy gun, paired with some SAA Colts.
Looks like y’all had a great time.
Did you just say something kinda mushy? Who are you and what have you done with my gunner?
I miss you so much too! Were it not for that Louisiana in between, getting to Texas would be a snap for me since I’m right on the border, next to the MS River!
Mega hugs around you, sweet, beautiful LUV!!!
You are seriously too kind, my dear friend. But “perfect” takes one to know one, so you are too, Tex!
Ah, it’s nice to ping my First Darling and my Gal Friend Forever at the same time!
We should probably bunk together the next time. Let Laz stay with Onyx’s stalker, LOL!
Leave him alone! I’m laying a bit of a claim on him also now....LOL.
Once I’ve cleared a jam for a lady I’m obligated to be at least civil thereafter.
LOL!
He’s gonna get “the big head” with the three of us laying claim to him. ;p
ROTFLOL.
I rather like the idea of those barracks or cabins that sleep 8. :)
Ours would ROCK!
Not me. I’m humble.
Pay attention.
So there!
You two saved me!
Gunner can certainly enjoy more than one lady friend. Besides, we ladies are all married. LOL!
I was using the CMMG .22 conversion.
Indeed, but we’d probably get thrown out of the place!
That's when you put your nose in the air and declare that you've been thrown out of better places than THIS!
Indeed!
And I don't mind and I merit a latter place on his list!
:)
