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.
Oh my gosh! Will you look at that Pen!
Hey, I miss you, guy!
The rivers in central Texas run clear and blue/green
Great for floating about in tubes with margaritas.
Let us know when you make it home!
I miss you!
I am MUCH happier in this picture!
Praise God!
I absolutely LOVE Texas. Can’t wait to return. I met Pen’s close friend Fred, whom she wants you to meet and you will. He’s a great guy, just like you. He has a 1000 acre spread. Pen’s husband is the most wonderful guy. Y’all are going to have the best of times. I have only a twinge of jealousy that I can’t be there....lol. She’s going to have the FW gang over soon. I’m so happy for you all.
This SHOOT was so wonderful, we made friends for life.

If Fred has 1000 acres why are we shooting on my 55 acre lease LOL!
I had a riot with you folks.
I think yours sounds so beautiful! I know, want to see your site. Plus, I’m sure they want to find another dead body...LOL. I love FW and that entire area.

ROTFL. You forgot to ping Jim to this bong.
But it was funny that the Black Dallas Cops really got upset
with the Obama sticker on the gate LOL
Hey! I don't own this property, I did not put the sticker on the gate and I don't know who that guy is in the river! I am just doing my civic duty by calling yall.
LOL!
I tried to get a pic of the Welcome sign to Robinson Texas but missed it.
This is what I ended up with LOL
Sheesh
Nice 3rd model. (the latch is the tip off)
I loved your retelling of that day with those racist black cops. Everyone did. I’m still laughing every time I think about it. Without that Obama sticker on the gate, it wouldn’t have been such a laugh riot. LOL. Not at the time, I understand THAT. Hilarious.
It’s just a home brew thing, but still kinda cool.
I miss that guy.
Missed yer Salsa this year.
I don’t know how I did that
I guess I was fixated on Gumbo and Margaritas that night.
It was a trip.
It was seriously frightened for a while.
It’s great. LOL.
That might work. I couldn't tell from the website if they had a range there. I did find this range http://www.stansrange.com/ in sorta the same area.
