Smiling here! That's okay. I do that in New York too. I've never been treated badly for it.

Ha on the way home(Tampa to Roc leg) I met a pretty blond flight attendant told her I must be in 1st class since I had the 1st row seat. She joked about how would I like my steak cooked and did I want champagne. When I heard her say Y'all I asked where she was from she said "I'm Deborah from Dallas TX" I new it! She was so sweet she had to be...I'm on a roll with TX girls

Smiling here! Haa, I bet you were saying that to the TSA guys too, as they were unpacking your gun case. We were out of there in 5 minutes. They never opened any of our cases.

Yea, been catching up with work all day. Gotta go home now and make sure my tractor starts. they're calling for about a foot here. I got my pictures loaded onto my computer today, so I'll try to post some on Wednesday. I told the guys not to bother to come to work tomorrow as I'll be home pushing snow.
I had a great time as usual with a great bunch of guys. Joey had a blast and I really appreciate you letting him come this time. He was very impressed with you guys and the knowledge he was able to soak up.

good seeing you at the airports I just ordered the complete TX, MO, and KY Rosetta Stone courses. My only concern is that I fear half the expressions you use are made up on the spot! Joel's got to write a book or screen play, titled "Junebug". ROFLMFAO BTW: at your suggestion, I had my first WHATABURGER. The pictures on the menu made them look small so I ordered a double! LOL! Did they end up letting the folks on my plane off to stretch their legs before continuing on to SL?

Yea, those Texans are REALLY nice people. I had the pleasure of meeting a very nice Texas State Trooper on my way back to San Antonio. He was kind enough to tell me that it was my lucky day and he was gonna let me off with a warning. Plus, he only held us up for about 5 or 10 minutes. 87 in a 70 on Route 57.

I never saw it, but the president of my university, Stephen F Austin State U, had a letter written by David Crockett, stating how he wondered how he got into that mess. He stayed to protect hi is honor. As I recall, from those lectures and readings close to 50yrs ago that Crockett, trying to recover from his defeat in congress, and was on an extended hunting trip. He was more a man experiencing a man life crisis, than one going to a call for independence. He just ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Captdavid

That's pretty much why they all came from far away. Hopefully this won't cause a hijack, but that's much of why Texas joined the Confederacy. Returning favors.

I had a great time on this year's hog hunt. Hope to do it again next year. I was just counting the boxes clay pigeons, it's 720. We did do a lot of shooting.
I hope they keep the chef. I asked him about grits. Guess what was for breakfast the next morning?

A grand time had again. Great bunch of fellows, good bit of killin', whole lot of laughs, and upgrade in food this year to boot. And whiskey, well, that's a given. What more can you ask for? Thanks for a great time, everybody!

When Leighton called I think I said something like, "I'm in love with Texas. I love Texas. I love the way Texans treat each other, the way they acknowledge one another. The yes ma'am, no ma'am, yes sir, no sir. The warmth in their casual greetings and smiles. They've got lots of cows and weather's pretty good too!"
You'll never hear a Texan say you have to be born here to be a Texan. You don't even have to live here, hence the State motto... "Texas...a State of mind." Edited to add that there are plenty people living here that will NEVER be Texans, as much as they would like to be. Some are here on the 'fire. Amen powell. Looks like loads of fun. Thanks for all the pics and testimonies. I'll make one some day hopefully. Congrats to all.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
