Don't know if'n I'll trust ya this time Al. I still remember the time you took me to Wally World. I did pretty good for the first mile but then my old legs started tirin out. Might be why I'm a might skinny now.
We waited a little too long getting these dates. I'm going to have to do some negotiating at work to get off. I'll let you know.
-
Well I'll ya Eric, I know two young men who basically said "We're goin to the shoot instead of the family reunion this year, right Grandpa? "So I guess that means put me down + two boys.
-
Yup nobber; count me in. Hank; ya just walk into the bosses office with a tomahawk in your hand and there'll be no problems, eh!
-
The boss isn't the problem right now, he's as old as I am. I can handle him. It's one of them young whipper snappers that's the Problem. He's already got the dates I want and I figure this fella could probably take that hawk off of me. I might find out something tomorrow.
Glad to see you're gonna make it Dan. What about Bob and Swamp thang?
-
Well I didn't think it was going to happen this year but I finally got it worked out. Mark me down Eric. I figure I can put up with Al at least one more year but it sure do take a lot out of ya.

Hey Bob, is Elsie gonna be there this year?
-
hopefully. sure is a pretty sunrise, when" el" is lookin down from on high.
-
Hey fella's,been lookin' and I cant find my directions ta git thar! I NEED 'em!!! remember,I'm Pathfinder,NOT because of my prowess in finding places un-found! Directionally challenged is more like it!
-
Path; i'm sure nobber will chime in here quickly with help. I can say it's not the easiest place to find, but what the heck, if Two Steps can find it, with Hank's help, your good to go. It is back a long lane, off the road. Looks kinda like an old fruit orchard from the road, to me. I use my wife's GPS unit to get me there. The address is at the top of this page. It's out in the sticks, right where it belongs. If'n your not there by dark, we'll start sendin up smoke signals. LOL Standby for further details! Buzzard
