Vanity ping!
If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.
You scared the hell out of me. At first glance, I thought it was a Swinney Switch Memorial. I thought to myself, where the hell have I been??
Wish I could be there. I’m sure it’ll be a blast.
If I get my chores done up here in the north country, I may drive down. Sounds like a blast....
I would LOVE to come down there friend yet too far a drive for me this weekend. Sid will be lookin down on y’all an smiling !
Enjoy the homemade an don’t run out of ice an salt or kids to crank the ice cream makers.
I thought the same thing until I remembered there’s an *actual* SwinneySwitch community.
It’s like, “Didn’t I just receive a ping from him yesterday?”
Would be nice to be able to ping you all after I’ve “passed over”!;^)
God bless
