7th Annual TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot - Live Thread

[TheMom]

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.

[TheMom]

I don’t remember seeing the picture you are talking about. If you post it, that might help. LOL

[LUV W]

They were taken the night we had the gumbo....and you were kind of busy. :)

I didn’t take them...I only saw one or two on the camera preview screen. Maybe they got deleted. I just wish I could remember who was behind the camera. :)

No matter...just thought they’d be good to have with the other great pictures in my album.

[onyx]

Yes, Penelopesire! Our pictures with Jim are on her camera.

[penelopesire]

Yes...the pics are on my camera. NYT has them and can probably post them faster than me. Maybe if we sweet talk him and say pretty please, he will post them for us tonight.

[onyx]

LOL. I wasn't sure whether NYTexan got those last photos from you.

[LUV W]

Whew! I’m glad y’all remembered! I was beginning to think I had dreamed it all up! LOL!

I’ll let y’all ask NYT, he pays no attention to his li’l sis! :) I do look forward to seeing them!

[onyx]

LOLOLOLOLOL.

Nope, the pictures were taken and if sweet NYTexan has them, they’ll get posted!

[Jim Robinson]

[NYTexan]

Sorry, I don’t have any pics that were taken after the shoot. :(

[penelopesire]

You probably do not have the pics we are looking for of each of us with Jim, NYT. I probably took those after you downloaded the others. Sorry about that.

Girls, just give me a day to find a pic hosting site and get them loaded on computer and I will post them. Tonight is the big debate,so I will do it tomorrow!!

[LUV W]

Amen to that Jim! She is a hard-aorking trooper deluxe!

[LUV W]

No worries. Just do it at your convenience. I am just glad they exist! :)

[Jim Robinson]

Looks like when me and Sheila and Chris moved into Big Nose Kate’s in Tombstone.

[TheOldLady]

It was really an honor to meet you in person, Jim.

Good shootin’ too!

And TheMom is Superwoman!

Thank you both again and again, so very much!

[onyx]

LOLOLOL. So happy you slept. I’m still over-sleeping!

Missing everyone too!

[onyx]

Special thanks to TheMom!! Great job putting this together!!

Absolutely!

Her food was the best, too!

She's a grand Texas LADY!

[onyx]

ROTFL. I think you’re the only one who has them, Pen. They were LATE additions.

[humblegunner]

Great job putting this together!!

Gangnam Style!

[onyx]

Gangnam Style!

[NYTexan]

Girls, just give me a day to find a pic hosting site and get them loaded on computer and I will post them.

Luv, can ya FReepmail MK the super-secret FR Fotki account link, username, and password?

[TheMom]

Thanks much. I am glad everyone had a great time.

[NYTexan]

Y’all come back soon!

[LUV W]

Weenie that I am, it’s taking a while to bounce back. I guess’
that means I’m not a young chick any more. LOL!

I’ll never forget the fun OR the wonderful friends I have and made!

[onyx]

LOLOL (((((LUVW)))))). You’re not alone and I hate to admit it! I’m still dragging a little, too.

AND, I’m still taking antibiotics! LOL. Sore throat has gone away. I’m certain I stopped that just in time!

Miss you a whole lot!

[Bacon Man]

Great meeting you Jim!

[LUV W]

I’m sure glad you took those antibiotics. Unless it’s something viral...then they do no good. As I’m sure your hubby is aware. :)

[onyx]

My sore throat went away. Husband is almost always against my pill taking, but he gives them to me. Says they work for me in my head regardless...LOL.

[NYTexan]

I’ll bet he has a wide assortment of Placebo’s just fer you! LOL

Gunner’s logo goes very well on a black shirt, but how come he got the first one already? ;-) :P

Besides, his logo would go well on any color shirt, IMO.

[TheMom]

That’s kind of a crazy looking cowboy on the back ~ it fits.

[mylife]

Woo Hoo! Just received, as new in original box with 2 mags
