Oh yeah, I'm up for the Back Porch!
See you all there.

DaJudge · 07-11-2012, 04:07 PM

I'll vote for Back Porch so Bill (and Jessica, of course) can make it.

kellenbenz · 07-11-2012, 06:49 PM

Back Porch works for me also.

If the Tyler folks want to meet up at the Exxon station on Spur 248 (University Blvd.) and Old Omen Rd. at 5:15, we'll have enough time to do a more interesting route down between the lakes on Eastside Rd. then on to Kilgore.

SparkyBlue does such a good job as thread moderator. The first post (with accounting, fonts, and colors) has been updated. Thanks Glen!

Thunderwhumpers here ---may cage in.

Skip Honeycutt · 07-12-2012, 09:34 PM

Good to see everyone this evening. Dave, have a good (rest of your) trip!

SparkyBlue · 07-13-2012, 07:07 AM

Good show, 18 I think. Nice evening outside, good food, great company. Hope all made it home safe. Pretty sunset following Floyd and Jarred home.

Hairsmith · 07-13-2012, 08:50 AM

Great seeing everyone, Dave it's been to long !
The visiting was cut short for me when the caterwauling got so loud that no one could visit with each other. To bad live bands don't come with a volume controll or at least be shot at for entertainment.
The ride was not an entire wast, great temps and got to look at some fantastic cloud formulation's on the way back.

Great time. Nice surprise from Dave!

When two guys as old as Glenn and I get together, we have to speak loudly.

Hey y'all: I'm tossing out somewhere in Henderson or Carthage for August so maybe some of us Louisiana fellows can find time to make it over.

The Captains Fish House is no longer in that location. It is a Italian restaurant (pizza and pastas). We ate there several month's ago and it was good. There is also a Pizza/pasta place in Carthage right next door to the BBQ place but I don't know the name of it either. The Carthage place has AWESOME homemade pizza. Just fyi.
