    Looks like my type of texans[:D]

    Thomas Jefferson, of Virginia:
    "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms. . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."

    SWWBO: in the 70's we danced in just about every bar around Houston. Gilley's was great until John Travolta showed up. How about the Winchester or Eddie's Ballroom? They were still "Hot Spots" after Gilley's went Hollywood.

    But, now you have to tell us all the story about the guy with the funny looking teeth.

    Wow. Now I was born in Harker Heights, just outside of Fort Hood, while my dad was serving in an ARP (does anyone rememebr those... I'm counting on you DWS ?) during the Vietnam war.

    I've never been assigned back to the area, but, based on this picture, Texas may not be such a bad place to be.

    Trying to remember...
    was the pic before or after we ate? [:D]

    Two Dogs,
    the Texas meet might be the place to start. I saw the thread on the national get-together and while it's a great thought it's been discussed many times.

    Outdoors,
    The pic had to be before we ate.

    TwoDogs doesn't have food all over his shirt.

    ps. I think a "TEXAS Start" is a good idea, too.

    Where's BobbyWins?

    I believe he has a piece of property in the Ausin area that would be fairly central to most members.

    Or? Who has a spot that would work?

    Outdoor,
    Your right.
    Lets see what we can put together here is Texas.
    Of course GB members from less fortunate states are very welcome.[:D]
    We can still try to tie it with some sort of event...namely a gun show in early fall.
    I will check and see when the Market Hall show in Dallas is coming up...if they are having one in that time frame.
    Big town big hotels...good eatin places..make a weekend out of it.

    How about Texicans ??
    Pick a date location and go for it ?

    Swwbo, the comment i made earlier was just a joke, please dont be mad! As far as the river walk goes, i think the ladies should go there while us men drive on down to Mexico and go to boys town or something like that!!

    San Antone...would be cool.
    They have a gun show there the First weekend of each month.
    Saxet Guns ...Loop 410 @ Broadway. Small show about 350 tables...but normally GOOD stuff.
    Small Texas Ranger museum at the park...The Alamo..good grub and the Riverwalk for the night life.
    How about Outdoor ??? Your not "wanted" in that county are you?[8D]
