Oh no Rob, we can't make it that easy    :saywhat:    

Made it home to my family safe and sound     :)  

It'll be a day or so before I can get some pix edited and uploaded.

So many stories to tell.

An amazing trip, that almost didn't happen for me....

I made it home safe and sound last night.  Another amazing trip that was filled with a lot of laughs and tears.  

Even though I was there and heard bits and pieces of a lot of these stories and involved in others one way or another, and I can't wait myself to hear what some of these guys have to post.  

I was a victim of the Texas "Duck and Roll" twice over...  I'll try to post some of my pics soon and go through my tragic tales also...

Like most who had any contact with Chris Surtees, I was floored when I heard the news of his passing. I had met him on the 2010 Solana Hunt and looked forward to seeing him again.

As it turns out the reports that he would not be making this hunt were incorrect. As the story unfolds you will see that he showed up in flying colors!

I will leave the major story telling to the experts and try to add with a few photos I have.

Sit back and enjoy the show, its a Blockbuster!

These threads are the perfect fix for the post season blues.  This is really what I come to trad gang for more than anything else. Can't wait to see more!
