We Made it Back

Great Weekend...Kind of nice meeting people in person, rather than just on a forum...I think each of us got to really get to see each others personality. (LOST MY BEER, does really lose his beer)...LMFAO

Just like a family, everything didn't run smooth, but it all worked out in the end. Food and atmosphere was great...

Both Tom and Marty have some great kids...Definately a reflection of their parents.

Rex is surely a retired Master Chief...Gunny had something to share with everyone, but I think he and Rex had the most in common...Both are very intelligent, ex Department of the Navy Personnel, and very set in their ways, not to mention a different generation.

As each of us downlaods pics, I think you will see some characters....Barb was laughing when she took the pics of us sitting on the burning log....I know someone had to have had hot gonads!

Attendees: Rex,Marty,Tom,Dave,Patrick,Flintergal,Placermike

Family, friends and kids were also there, but they were the sane ones!!!!!!!!!!!

All in all, it was a great time.

As already stated it was fun... I am sorry to say that the weather was not on our side (NOT). Could not of asked for a better view.

Thanks for the coments on the chillins Mine was quite the whiner and was out like a light once we hit the road.

It was a pleasure to finally put faces to the names and I appreciated the whole weekend. I am sorry that we didnt have a bigger turn out but I understand that the eastern guys want us to come to them. I think they believe their trucks will RUST just by going over the hill for a weekend. It isn't their fault they are affraid of the unknown and cannot stand having weather and temps that are not extream. It is just too mild over here for them.

Anywho, I did enjoy everyones company and Rex I did enjoy meeting you too. I wish we could have talked more, That is just how things go though.
Gunny was a blast too. To everyone else... you all sucked.




Thank you to EVERYONE who showed up and/or contributed.

The rain was odd this late in June, I guess it's making up for a dry March and April, it figures. The old cedars smelled good, but the one we'uns were sitting on got a little hot Lol, it only burned a little of the jacket. Ye Marty, the next morning we kind of broke off into groups -- I was getting a heckuva history lesson and firearms history from Gunny.

Mike tell Rick that the MSC tool site he told me about was irresistible and I have goods coming in the mail.

Thanks Liz. I still got Rex and his tractor on my desk top. So I don't think he's in it.
Man, I need a life.

Thank You! Nick and I were trying to figure out who was who. Kinda figured you, Rex, were the one taking the pic. I had Mike pegged though! Terry - is that Gunny? That was my guess... Sure wish I could've made it. Maybe next time!
