| Tempting. The 2hr drive wouldn't be a problem. The two hour drive back though... |

| Thanks for the info. I see that South African Airways will be there giving away round trip tickets to South Africa. Those would help with the overall cost of the next hunting trip! It's not too far from here so I think I will be there! |

| Well with the price of gas and it is a 5 hr each way I will pass this year, but it does look like fun, maybe next year, and make a weekend of it. |

| Unfortunately, I cannot make it this year, but next year is already on the calendar as I will be at Ft. Lee (Petersburg). From the web sites it looks like it is a great festival. Don

| My wife and I just got back a few minutes ago. It was a very pleasant day. Got a chance to meet Grafton and his wife, talk about aminas, taxidermy, and hunting. There was South African food including very good roasted lamb, lots of wine both red and white, curios and handicrafts, and even beef biltong. This would be a very nice venue for an informal AR gathering to meet and put faces with screen names. Maybe we can watch for the next event and do a little on-line advance planning and put something together.

| Spec's in the Houston, Texas area used to have these from time to time. I'm not on their email list anymore so I'm not sure of their schedule. Since I don't care for wine, it would be nice if they had beer sampling to go with the wine or maybe I'd just drink Amarula and think of the bushveld!!!!!beer: Robert :
