I was trying to wait for Dean to have the honor of starting it up but looks like you beat him to it. I'm game again. What do we need to worry about again. Father's Day, last day of school...... I like mid June as always.
 
:D It's never too early to start talkin' about gettin' together with some of the nicest folks on the planet!:D

Shirt sleeve temps would be nice (late June?) but I'm open to anytime.


I LOVE YOU MAN!;)
 
Father's Day is the 15th so I would vote for the next weekend of the 21st or the following weekend the 28th primarily leaning toward the 21st of June. What's your school bus calendar looking like Pops?
 
Looks as though I'll have to use those sick days this time!
John, I'll bring more 1911s for you to try (did you ever buy an AR?) ...
 
I never got an AR-15. To rich for my blood. My step-daughters (out of the house) keep askin' me for money. Okay, truth be told, they have me wrapped around their little fingers. I'll be bringin' some goodies everyone might appreciate.:D
 
im all for it , it will be my first get together , but Im all for it!!!

Im up here at Ft.Lewis but im willing to travel to enjoy the pleasure of shooting, who wouldn't.
 
Where????? Being From Washougal you might get asked that question a fair amount.

Well that's for us to know and you to find out I guess.:neener:

For starters you travel over Manastash Ridge going from Ellensburg to Yakima. It runs East West from the Army grounds to the Cascades. It would be about a 3.5 hour run for you.

June 21 would be perfect for me. I had to retire from the kid herding business, so that is no longer a factor. Warmer is better, so far as I'm concerned, having been raised in So Nevada.

I'd like to see a really good turn out this year. After all, last year we only had to run three shifts at the breakfast table, doncha know. :D Somebody needs to go up early and make sure the chipmunks are out of hibernation for JP. :p

I'll bring my usual eggs and bacon. Let's see if we can get a separate cooking fire ring set up, so my pot roast looks less like charcoal briquettes.

Well it's about time someone got the ball rolling. I can't carry this by myself forever. Actually I was asleep at the switch and just plain forgot.

Anyway I'm sure looking forward to seeing old friends again and makeing new ones.

Pops, Polish, anyone gonna' post a few pix from last year?

I'll see you all there.

Hey....did I mention I'm coming?:p

I'm bringin' the 7-11 scenario........

Also the "up-close-and-personal" scenario........

Plus the "boatload-of-bad-guys" scenario.........

Hey....did I mention I'm coming?:D:D
 
My friend.......I grew up in Ohio, ended up on the west coast in 1971 and never looked back. West of the Mississippi rules!:)


Where else can ya get together with the finest folks on earth and do the 7-11 scenario! :D

I know what you mean. I was lured out to Washington by a coworker who (accurately) predicted I'd love it there, but moved back East for law school. (True story: my dad used to call me a "Philadelphia Lawyer" long before I knew what either of those words meant, which always makes me smile now that I nearly am one.)

Now I'm about 90pct certain that's where I'll choose for the short- and medium-term future. Mountains, snow, awesome weather, are all good, but mostly it's that the attitude is good.

I hope you all have a good time at this event.

EDIT: just looked at the map -- not so far from Seattle! I was guessing this would be in the far eastern stretches of the state, but No.

It is a whole weekend affair but showing up when you can is not a problem. We start late Friday afternoon (usually no shooting) setting up camp and getting to meet one another break bread and tell "true" stories around the campfire. Saturday have some breakfast then go shooting break for lunch shoot some more, dinner then more stories. Sunday break camp shoot a little then head out mid afternoon.

Cougfan, border jumpers within the states is encouraged.:neener: There are usually one or two "Dogs" that show up but they make great moving targets.:evil:
