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.
Laz assists JimRob for the ultimate ZOT!

Good night for real.

JimRob: Got 'em!

Henry Rifle to Gunner: Yer gonna shoot yer eye out boy!
Cool bridge photo...
Raptors! Actually, I think these birds were all rescues. The Eagle was pretty impressive, though.
Check out the vey hugh Stingray!
ONYX to Dr.O: Hey hon, ya still wanta talk 'bout that credit card bill?
... and a quiet tortoise.
There were a few other stingrays, but more of this type than the others.
Of course we also saw dolphins and sharks, but those photos weren't as cool at this one of the lion fish.
or this one of the jellyfish.
MK to hubby: Look hon, NYT just turned me into a real redneck Texan!
Thank you!
Laz discusses the 'Hit-It' technique
JimRob: Aww jeeezz, not this shit again!

That's a crying shame. I used to love chocolate malts with a white-hot passion when I was a kid, and woe betide the soda jerk who gave me a shake instead. *Snort* [giggle]
Ahem... It's too bad I'll never get to drink another one.
