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.
Guns frighten me.
I’m glad I wasn’t able to make it to where those guns weren’t.
Or that dog.
Love the picture of the pier....and the others, too. Kitty looks happy to be where you all are! :)
Seconded. Your kids were great. The boy, we bonded on Video Games. I’m just a kid myself in many ways.
LOL!
Bunking together would be fine for you guys, but you know what would make it so I REALLY wouldn't go?
The second sentence of your quote.
LOL! And I got ‘em all, too!
That rifle is sweeeet!
Woo hoo!! Just got home!! Awesome trip!!
That was one hella long road trip!
Welcome home.
Poor Kitty ran smack-dab into my leg Saturday night. Good thing I have lots of soft padding.
She seemed okay, so I didn’t make a fuss, and she didn’t hit my shin bone, just the muscle and fat on the side.
She really is a precious little puppy, and it was love at first sight, which you may have noticed, Eaker. [smiles]
I see what you did there. ;-)
Glad you made it safe and sound. Time to get ready for next year, LOL!
It was wonderful to meet you, Sheila, and Chris, and I am (and I bet everyone else is) looking forward to seeing y’all again.
Calm down, Charlie.
I'm just kidding, for my only roommate will be Bryan.
After nearly 33 years, half my life, I'd miss the guy sleeping next to me.
Besides, I snore. ;-)
Great pic of the twins!
Problem was the extractor springs btw.
Sweetie, I don’t care where you sleep. Just don’t room me with THAT guy (you know who). :)
If gunner will make the design, we can order shirts from Cafe Express.
Well, poo! We don wan ta stay n no stinkin hotel. ;-)
Thanks for the links ~ when I have a few minutes I’ll check them out. Really appreciate your help.
Glad you guys made it home safe & sound.
This year’s graphic would not translate well onto a shirt.
I’ll keep that in mind when designing next year’s.. make it shirt-friendly.
