I lay a lot of the blame on BJ.

He had the most to do with it, but I believe you had your hand in it as well! Thanks to everyone, my old friends as well as the new friends!


One of these days when I get my cabin built I am going to have a pistol range like BJ's, grab my coffee and head to the front porch and let 'er rip. Nothing like burning BJ's ammo thru Bj' gun while smoking one of Lynn's cigars!LOL!

To be honest, I think every person there was a co-conspirator. What a great bunch of guys!

What an outstanding weekend!!!

BJ is the hostest with the mostest without a doubt. I think every one of us only dreams of having a place like his and his generosity is unequaled!

Sham is now the holder of the official Grillmeister badge, if we can get one of the mods to put it up for him and will hold it until another Grillmeister takes over at one of the events.

Greg took some killer pics that he will be uploading when he gets back home.

I feel very fortunate to have gotten to see BJ, Ron, Bill, Jason, Kelly, Sham, Joe and Randy again and to get to meet all the rest of you guys. We definitely missed Tim, Lee and Phil, but I think Gary tried to make up for you guys not being there. Well done Gary. Benjamin cooked us all bacon, sausage and eggs over the fire Sunday and along with Sham's grilling and all the shooting, honing and restoration, this Gathering was simply WOWZA!!

Mike, Joe and Paco, you guys were a ton of fun. Greg, thanks for driving over and it was a pleasure to spend time with you. I'll be there for Deer Season Kelly. Will, thanks for the math help.

Don't tell Robert Williams that the diamond spray on the Syderco UF might actually work........it's a secret.

Alex, your razors were a Huge hit!!!

I hope I get to see you all and talk to you soon.

Thank you all!!!

Lynn

Cant wait for deer season, this is gonna be good! Be sure to bring the cigars! For those of you who don't know, Romeo y Juliet's are pretty darn good!

I should Say Alex they were great razors and i was lucky to test one ( No shaving test). Unfortunately Lynn didn't want to make them more beautiful, useful and amazing blade by letting BJ and me try our lovely Plan.
Plan was to steal one of them(then share somehow) but we couldn't get it done. Next time we would be more successful.
Great work Alex.

It really was great to spend 2 days at the get together with all you guys. BJ was a great host, and it was good to have the extra time to actually work with some new stones. Everybody was very nice, and it was good to see some new faces.

-I wish it could have lasted a little longer so I could have used more of Randy's gigantic pile of hones though. Randy, thanks for your expertise and for humoring my questions. I owe you.

-Mike, thanks for letting me use your Japanese razor. My wife would say otherwise...

-Sham, great job on the food and for letting me use that Salm coticule, it was an eye-opening experience.

-Ron, thanks for bringing the stereoscope and lugging that HUGE box of barber hones around. I just about blew out my back picking it up.

-Lynn, thanks for letting me test the diamond spray on the spyderco...another tool in the honing kit!

Again, everyone was great to talk to, and I think I learned a lot from everyone I interacted with. Awesome!

The meet was fantastic, I only got home about 10pm last night so am getting to post just now, slept in,. Thanks to everyone for all the education. Lynn for training my thumb, Sham for the honing help, Randy thanks for letting me pick your brain for the razor making and grinding info, Ben for scale help, and everyone else for the bits and pieces of info i picked up from ya.
BJ, thank you, thank you, thank you for your hospitality and vodka.
I'll try to get up some of the pics i have as soon as i trans fer them to the PC.
Had a wonderful time thanks again to everyone.
PS. SHAM, I'm still full from the lamb.
