Hello everyone, it's been awhile since our last get together.  The date is Saturday June 17th at 6:00 at SS, 7:30 at SQ1 for dinner.  I'll be making reservations on Wednesday June 14th.  Everyone is welcome to join us.

Update:  I just found out I have to go out of town, I'm leaving on Friday.  I wanted to get everyone's opinion in changing the date to the following Saturday 6/24.  If everyone can let me know so I can change the reservations I'd appreciate it.

Update #2:  The date has officially changed to Saturday the 24th.

You also need to see if you'll be back in CONUS by then .  The Okee is low.  We might have to return via the Keys.  I hear it's not uncommon to get stuck there because of..... errrr..... weather?  Yeah, weather.

Bump for the SWFL crew.  

Unfortunately, I'll be living vicariously through you guys this round.  Winds look like they'll persist through the end of next week, so no run back across the Atlantic for me.  Have fun!  At least June is junkanoo season here....

You poor bastard. Forced to stay in the Bahamas for another week. Meanwhile, I'm watching a duck swimming in the road and waiting for UPS freight to show up so I can go home to change into dry clothes.

The vicarious part is for the act of propelling lead at a high rate of speed through the barrel of a firearm aimed in the general direction of a target.  I am armed in my travels, but customs and immigration requires a count of ammunition when arriving and can inspect at any given time (including on the way out), and they expect the round count to match.  Therefore, I pose in the mirror every night with my loaded 1911, but it's just not the same

So no pity then?  Bummer.  I have heard you guys have gotten some rain.  When I came across the Okeechobee, the nav depth was 5.5'.  I got within 3" of the bottom at times (and draw 4.5'), so it was sketchy.  I saw it drop to a nav depth of 4.5' a week ago, and can't imagine how shallow that was.  As of today it's back over 5.5', which suggests you've gotten a LOT of rain!  Hope you guys dry out soon and enjoy some sunshine given that it's summer.  We're getting a good bit of rain and lightning here too.  Here's my view last night as a cell spun over the island.



Sorry for the distraction on the HTF thread about a local shoot.  Wish I could join you guys.  Have fun!!  (and stay dry)

I will try to make this one.  Since we will be indoors I may focus on shooting a few of my pistols since we tend to focus on rifles when shooting out doors. Maybe the Les Baer could use some exercise....
