I've been talking with Sharptonn and we were thinking of getting together the weekend before the superbowl... who is interested? It would be either the 28th or the 29th...
Input would be great. I don't care about which day.

I have a large space and can provide chairs/tables, and even some heat! Spring Branch area I-10 West. Grill up some stuff? Sunday is best for me. Start early and end early! ;) Tom
I'm in. name the day. :lurk::tu
Paul
I can't see why I woundn't drive over from Lumberton. Easy sell to SWMBO as my SIL is in Tomball.
Andrew
It's a bit of a drive from Austin, but I'll try to make it if I have the day off.
So Tom... Sun starting at what time? Looks like 5-6 people so far. Elton got a hold of me also.
Paul
I am thinking 3:00. That will give out of towners a while to get here and plenty of time for a return trip. Anyone coming, PM me and I will give directions.
Looks like I'm going to be at work Sunday. I'll try again another time.
Call in sick! I will write you a note. Trust me, I am a Doctor! :DQuote:

What do you think about a "swap meet"? I will set up a table and guys can bring razors, blades, hones, boxes, etc for trade? We might put together some nice stuff? Any other ideas, lets hear them. Tom
I just sent an invite to Bob. Not sure what else to do if people don't read this they won't come. It's fairly easy to roll call. I'm in!!!!!:rofl2:
Paul
I heard from Bob. Hope he will come. Somewhere on this forum is a map of member's locations?? I have seen it, but where......... Like a Google map with all members names and locations close by
Yeah! Hit "My Location" under your avatar. Google map comes up. Wait a bit and other members start showing up.
on it brother man!
jsut sent a few out but most are long dormant
Figures! Oh well! Lets keep it up top here and see if we can get some interested local guys. Thanks Paul!
Hey Elton! Going to make it? Me and Paul need a 3rd wheel! :w
I'm still planning on heading over there. Especially considering how I got the date wrong and almost went to Houston this past weekend :banghead:
I gave elton the info and he said he was a go!
Looking forward to meeting you. Bring your razors!Quote:

Big fun and thatnks to Tom(Shap) for hosting. I spent most of my time honing up razors and oogling his collection. Bob came and made us all drool over his work. Elton scored some nice blades and I'm going to finish one of them up in girraffe bone after cleaning it up.
Not to self.... we need more time to hang out. 5 hours isn't enough!!!!!
Paul
Big Time today! Thanks to Paul, Elton, Bob, and Phil for attending. Paul is a honing fiend! Bob Allman brought some of his fine customs! Nice to have local razor authority Phil here! Me and Elton ate the food! Lots of razors, Honing and pinning. Great discussion and sharing. FUN!
Got to do it again!
Damn this was fun! Tom and Paul are awesome like always, Bob is HILARIOUS and Phil is a great guy! We need to do this more often!
I did not read this post until today. How did the get together go?
Do any of you know if there are any groups in the Corpus Christi area?
Corpus is kind of a ways away from us lol. I don't really know of any other members from there let alone a get together. You can always start a thread for a corpus Christi meet and see if there are any other members interested! There should be plenty of guys from there, it's also a good ways to make local connections!Quote:
