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.
We just got home and we want to hit the road again! LOL!
LOL! Yep. It was so much fun, I’m ready to do it again.
He had to go back to work today, and was probably doing laundry and other stuff last night. Probably glad to be rid of his “li’l sis”after a whole weekend hauling her everywhere! LOL! He’s good to me!
OKay! Thanks very much, my darling!
He’s likely resting up or maybe today is return to work day for Laz!
Now I wanna come too! :) nothing like inviting myself! LOL!
You were working that Prime rib LOL
You are always invited.
He posted Sunday night to me. And I saw him yesterday morning when I picked up Laz. So he’s ok. I’m sure of it. I just left him a voice mail telling him that we were missing him on the thread. I’m sure he’ll log in when he gets home tonight.
Ruh-Roh! :)
Right on. Looking forward to it. Also looking forward to seeing laurenmarlowe for more than 5 minutes this time.
Thank you! Let me know when so I can maybe try to take off work. I might even drive....I think I can find Lauren’s place. Or NYT’s.
What’s that strange piece of paper on the dash?
Lauren was my welcome wagon to Texas.
I’d been here for 10 years, but she opened my eyes to the Texas road trip.
Thanks for that Lauren.

Would you believe that I have a compass and can calculate magnetic declination too?
