Just look for the BIG YELLOW THUMBTACK about a couple hours east of El Paso, huh? Yahoo Maps says it's about 10 hours east of me, so I could probably drive it. I guess Midland/Odessa are only a few minutes away and have a lot of hotels/motels. plus the Confederate(oops-Commemorative) Air Force Museum. How about mid-October? Weather here is decent then, Cool nights and warm(OK - still hot for most), so I suppose Kermit is about the same? This time and place gets my vote.

cool, 5 hours and 59 minutes from me according to Google Earth....anyone else use Google Earth?  Sure would be a slick way to figure out where everyone is from.  I might drive out some weekend, I bet I could make it in 4 hours:)

Dates for get together

Man, I sure don't mind holding something here in West Texas, but if it kept the forum owners from attending, that would suck.  As far as dates here, we have a  KTAC Field Target Extravaganza & Campout on the 22-23rd of September. We could add the 21st on to that and make it a 3 day. What we do is have bonfires, BBQ's, campout, rabbit hunts, and shoot mini-Field Target, Full Field Target, Nighttime Spotlight match, Red Ryder shoot-off, and some paper target matches. It's a blast let me tell you and the weather is always cooler. If this is good for everyone, just holler, but like i said, it would suck to not have the forum owners be able to come. Quite the pickle...

Geeze what an offer Robert. I would think that Gene and I might possibly be able to work something out. A problem for me is making sure that Gene "remembers" his wallet and getting him to "commit to" providing lunch along the way. May also need to get a tag along trailer for dragging Fritz with us too.

Hey, Bob, I've got a trailer you could borrow for Fritz!  Not sure how to get it to you, but it should be just the right size.  You could even pack some of your tuning equipment, and give a clinic, with Fritz there to keep Gene in line :-)!
