Hey gang....Just got a Expedia/Trip Advisor alert. Airfare to San Antonio from DC at $262 which is about 90 bucks lower than my last trip.
Anyways, just letting those who are flying in on a possible air fare break.
Pat....400 cash should be to your home by Saturday but certainly no later than Monday. USPS said it depends upon whether you are out in the 'urbs or not. Thanks for covering for me while I was away,amigo.

Hey Pat....my son may not make it and Karen is still a maybe,since I have two folks by my name,if my kid and Karen can't make it,could I sub another best buddy who I'd love to show San Antone and the ranch? If you'd prefer to leave it open for 24H guys hoping to come,I'm quite cool with that but kindly let me know so that I can lock in air fare while the rates are good,if you will. I'm already booked at the Contessa,as you may remember.
I haven't gone back to review the thread Pat so forgive me if I'm asking already answered questions.
Thanks Pat. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Of course. I reserved shooting for 20 and I think we have about 15. It's DOVE SHOOTING, so room for guns won't be a problem,

Well fellows I think I created a monster last week.My daughter was in for summer visitation(she is 13yo)and I thought I needed to practice a little skeet for the upcoming hunt.I had bought her a youth model 1100 20ga two years ago trying to get her interested but she never showed much interest so I didn't push it.Well long story short,after a couple sessions with me,I put her in a final practice session with boys going to state shoot next week.She held her own and shot over 700 hundred rounds that week.The insructor told the guys if he had a couple of weeks with her that he would have her outshooting them.Anyway the both of us had the best time we've ever had.

Don't let her shoot and sporting clays. You'll never be able to afford to shoot again.

Contessa's web site has internet specials,Dana. Let me know if you want me to bring you some of my "dove-in-heat" lure.
Try to get there earlier this time,if your schedule permits.

Will most likely need a half gallon size dove in heat bottle for myself! Teri has a "Mojo"... ...We may hunt here in God's country the AM of the first then drive south to meet with you fine gentlemen but definitely want to arrive earlier. Looking forward to this!
