Great, looking forward to it! Veggies made-just have to warm them back up. Looks like it might be a good day after the slop leaves today and tomorrow.
 See you guys Sat.

Tom/Ron,

Have a blast everyone.  My work has overtaken the weekend and I will miss another great hunt gathering.  I thought self employment was supposed to allow me a little control?

Stay safe and skewer a skwerl!

Mac- if you think one is enough have at it!
 BTW, I'll be in a maroon T100 with camper shell.Also will bring a target if anyone wants to fling a few during the lunch break.
 One more and a wakeup-see you then.

The meat is thawing and I will cube it tomorrow. Do you think 5 pounds of meat will be enough?????    :readit:  

  Mac, I would bring atleast two arrows., LOL. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Ron, any kind of idea on how many are coming? Would think that might be enough meat. I will have a small weber grill so I can heat or cook also. Redblood is bringing some soft drinks, anything stronger is up to individuals.
 Its about 15 this morning here-sure hope it warms up tomorrow on your side of the Ridge.
 See you then.

Tom, the meat is cubed and ready, the grill has been fired up and tested and I have 24 halfs of deviled eggs to bring also. If that isnt enough we will have to cook some SKWERL. LOL

 Our temperature here was 18 degrees this AM so it isnt much of a difference. I am bringing a buddy along and don't have an accurate head count. I am guessing 10 or so...???

Good to meet Mac, Chris, and Mark at the squirrel hunt.Of course good to see Adam and Ron again as well. Squirrels were seen, a few shots taken and tons of stumps were killed.A little windy and cool but the chow was good and overall a good time, I believe, was had.
 If anyone can post pics let me know and I will email several.

Anyone want to post a few pics? Have Ron and Redblood(Chris) at full draw. One of the brave few who endured good food and malt.
 Let me know if anyone want to post.

Total of 7, Tom. Could have used a few more, the wind in the morning didn't help. But no pies so sure you wouldn't have enjoyed it as much, lol.

Sorry I missed this one but it sure was chilly here in the mountains.  Kids had a great time at their party though.
