Not a problem. You got the list posted. Thanks. :^D
Part-of-History Bump!
Thank you all so much for everything!
Re #29, 32: Thanks. I hope ya'll get a chance to meet with him. There is a meet
in Austin tonight, I believe. Then they will be in Houston and San Antonio.
Bump!
I'm sure you meant to say "Then they will be in Houston and San Antonio"
;-)
Aw, too bad. But maybe another time, I hope. :^DEveryone seemed to enjoy the whole thing. I know I did.
ROFLMAO! That is classic!
I know you all had a fantastic time. I appreciate being able to 'be there' via the FReerepublic!
Good morning, Tonk. How's it going?
That is why FR is the best! JimRob, and all of us, are just that... normal people who look like everyone else. Like Speaker Denny Hastert said last night at the funeral for President Reagan, we're American!
Great food and fellowship with the best of 'em.
Glad you all were able to get together on such a historic day and share the moment at hand.
Thanks, SerpentDove for doing this.
Meek, your pictures are beautiful, I'm camera looking and need to find out what kind of camera you have!!Thank you. I bought a Hewlett-Packard 318 digital camera on eBay last summer. It cost me ~$80, including shipping. There were bunches of auctions on them then, and I bet there still are. It was almost new and came with the manual, the HP software, and USP Cable. Everything I needed to get started. And it's very simple to use, just what I needed, LOL ! :^D
A good friend of mine has used this same camera for several years, and so I knew it was simple to use, etc. before I went to eBay to try to get one. And bidding on eBay is kind of fun. I bid on about THREE of them before I finally won the bid. (I ended up getting mine for LESS than the auctions I lost. They were going for ~$90-$100, plus shipping - usually around $10).
I also use Adobe PhotoDeluxe Home Edition (V 3.1) software to help with photo stuff. Sometimes if a pic comes out too dark, I can use that and with a click or two, it comes out really good. I had to use PhotoDeluxe on some of those, too. The PD software I got on eBay also, for less that $20, including shipping.
Oh, and SerpentDove is the one that added the 'labels' (screen names, captions) on the pics. He will be adding the pictures he did tonight and I'll ping everyone again after he does. I'm sure his will be even better than my pics did. He is a regular Foto Fred and does great work.
Yeah !! :^D
I see TLI and Texagirl4W managed to escape the cam somehow. hmmmm. :)I thought I was very diligent in getting everyone's picture. Either I MIS-labeled a pic, or missed getting TLI's pic. I felt badly missing TLI. Sorry 'bout that. It was an oversight. :^(
I did get one of Texagirl4W, though:
Texagirl4W
Sorry 'bout that, folks.
Thanks. It was fun making that pic, too! :^)
Oh, yeah. I'm sorry you couldn't make it, too.
I was looking forward to meeting you.Maybe another time, though. I hope so.
Thanks for the Photos and stuff.
Outstanding post, pictures and comments. Kudos to the most informed citizens on the planet.
No, I never was. (And I'm so sorry for your friend who looks like that!)
Great pics and nice job putting this together.
Now if Jim would just come to Buffalo before it snows next week.
Thanks for the ping, Chieftain.
Jim, thanks again for all that you and your family are doing for FReedom and our FRee Republic. When does the FReeperMobile Eastern Swing begin?
SerpentDove, Taxman Bravo Zulu for a most excellent report and pics.
Hi, MAF! If you are ever in Jacksonville and need a ride to your hotel, I promise you that we will get lost again! LOL! I haven't lived here since 1959, and absolutely do not know how to get around yet. Maybe Chieftain would be a better taxi driver than I am!
