This year's Friday night get together was a nice affair in my opinion... One could go up and order what they wanted to eat and how much... We were given the far side of the Pappas Bar BQ restaurant and it was away from all hustle and bustle and one could hear with out problems your neighbor and get up and move around...

Again Saeed thank you...

Friday night was attended by 38 people ARites and wives and guests...
The first four pics fare from Friday evening.. See how many friends you recognize...

Looks like Perry is gonna buy another. Glad to see that Ernest is looking so healthy. Last I had read he was dealing with some medical stuff.
Even in the photos and with everyone else there I miss seeing Ray.

Mike,

Thanks for posting the pics! My first trip to the DSC and AR gatherings was great and I'm looking very forward to next year!

My wife and I sure enjoyed meeting you and your wife at Pierre's booth and Jorge also. Sorry we didn't make it to the get togethers (First time without the children in quite some time ) looks like a good time was had.

Man your Croc sure looked bigger in "person" than it did in the photos.

Looks like a fun time was had by all.

In the first picture with a lime/light green coloured shirt is that KarlS ????

Yes that was him and some how I did not catch him in a photo Saturday evening...

Mike

It was a pleasure meeting everyone at the Friday night get together. Sorry I couldn't make it to Saturday night. I have to say that the folks running the convention were the best. They made us as vendors feel right at home and could not have been more hospitable. We will be back next year.

How's about some names to go with all those faces ...???

Will work on it today to put names I remember..


Mike

That's me in the red shirt on the right of the second picture sitting across from Wayne from AHR.

I was there .

I just got back from Sonora, Mexico and had to check in to see how the AR party went in Dallas. Looks like you all had a lot of fun and camaderie.

I had a great time at the DSC events, and another thank you for putting it together. Hope to see everyone next year.

Mike , a big Oklahoma thanks for setting this all up. Cheryl and I had a great time , but like all good things time was short and its so hard to meet everyone and rember names ETC.

Allso wanted to let you know I do agree the 450 NE will be the choice ,but damn that 450 #2 you have is so impressive !

I have been so busy after i got home, doing all the tile this week , most likely next week too.well time to work, ill talk with all you you soon.

Thanks again!!!

Mike - Joan and I want to thank you for all the work you did regarding the organization of the AR events at DSC. It was great to meet you, your wife and also Jorge & Bitterroot. Due to a limited time with our son we wearn't able to attend the AR events. Will folow you and Jorge in your respective upcoming safaris with Pierre & look forward to another AR get-to-gether.

Sure sorry we misse it this year. George
