Wait, we can do that?

I volunteer USA1 to organize something in the NW Houston Area "rlol" :smilelol5:
I'll have my people get right on this and get back to you. ;-)

BTW, We're all still waiting for photographic evidence from the DFW shindig. :bigear:

I took official pictures in two places--at the range and at the restaurant. I got candid shots before then--we filled that place up!--but I don't have permission to post them.

If you were there, please PM me and we'll see if there are any candid shots of you. That means you're going to have to sign up, Lurker! :cool: Something like this would be good: I was there. I was the one wearing the adorable red CHL tiara that Diesel42 brought me!

Here's a picture of those who held out to the end. I'd guess this was about 1/3 of those who attended. Does that seem right to the others? Next time, I'm definitely taking a sign-in sheet.

I only took two which I announced would be posted and gave those who didn't want to be put online a chance to get out of the frame. The restaurant one is not cooperating right now so I'll get it later. And I'm going to post my tiara, too.

No pictures of me. I won't post the candids of others without their OK. PMs are out for permission now.

Funny you should mention the Hawaiian shirts as that was my thought when I posted it, too! :lol:

USA1 must be from Missouri. The "Show Me" state. Doesn't believe it without pictures.........its all good. We had a great time, and I encourage this kind of get together in other areas when possible. The camera survived even with me in the pic! :shock:

The only pictures I've seen of you are from the neck down.(Wally Walk pictures).

I am on the far left, in a dark shirt. Guess I should have worn the Wally Walk tie-dye camo shirt. My two boys are just behind me in white shirts. Easier to spot them that way......gotta keep an eye on them. In all honesty, they were very well behaved. Its a real pleasure to take them somewhere and not have to deal with the typical sibling rivalry, picking on each other and such......they know the range is serious time and there will be plenty of fun without any foolishness.
