However I spend a lot of time around Champlin Arms booth.

Bob,

Many of us also stay at the Marriot Suites at Market Center right across the highway from the Convention...

Many of us meet at my corner booth #229...that is my booth!
Hunters Headquarters!
Looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones.
If you are lucky you can go home with a Tuffpak that I have only sold once.

You can borrow money but you can not borrow time. Go hunting with your family.

Then only problem with hanging out at Harry's booth is that you might end up taking home a new rifle like I did last year.

We tried to warn you Doug!

I, along with Ne450 No2, Harry and Wendell, Perry, Mac, Mark and the rest of the DRSS will be present in Dallas. Please make allowances in your schedule to join all the AR folks at dinner in the evenings!

This is a great time!

Hey, Mims!
I will see you in Reno as well! Peggy and I are meeting David Guitar and his wife for the SCI convention.

Rusty, et.al.

I just made my reservations at the Marriot Market Center (it's a lot cheaper than the Renaissance). I will be at the kickoff dinner on Thursday evening and attend the show Friday and one-half day on Saturday.

Do you guys go to all the banquets, (costs a fortune), or do you do dinner on your own?

Looking forward to seeing all you current, and a few who are now "ex", members of AR.

You all may want to bring boxing gloves this year due to the Sheephunter-Ray-Judge fight going on. It should be an interesting meeting.

GAHUNTER,

I went to the banquet last year (Sat. night) and was bored. I had my company buy a table this year to support DSC, but our clients will be going - not me.

Mike,

I hope we can get the same Limo drivers as last year. Classy and cheap!!!!! Just my cup of tea. My wife is pretty excited about this wild adventure. She obviously doesn't know what she's getting into.

I will be looking forward to meeting a bunch of you also. Since booking our hunt for next year, My hunting partner Bob, and my wife and I decided it would be in our best interest to attend and get some first hand advice on our first safari. We will be staying at the Marriot also. It ought to be a fun weekend! Lee.

This sounds like it's gonna be fun. Wife is not coming so my consumption of short chain carbohydrates will not be influenced

Mentioned I was going to my hunting partner and he said, "count me in." I think it really had to do with my referring to single malt scotch as the libation of choice!

The party will have to do with Africa, not any pissing match that I should have never gotten into. Ya'll come and enjoy. We'll all be ladies and gentlemen .. and if I'm not, please ask me to leave and I'll honor your request and expect you to do the same.. If the past is any guide, private and public twits seem to disappear at the party. I'll bet the tradition continues. It is Ray's birthday party... but really a thank you to Saeed for his largess, he not being able to attend.

'Nuff said.

JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous.

GAHUNTER

Ernest,

I tried to call you when I was at the King and Prince for a wedding recently. The phone just rang and rang.

Figured you were either off on safari, or passed out under the table cuddling a bottle of 18-year-old Glenmorangie single malt.
