Thanks Guys. I'm proud to be associated with you all. I only wish I could have been there today to help. There's nothing like friends helping friends!

Dean,
As you can see from the photo's it was an absolutely perfect New England day, unlike last fall when we all got soaked. It was really great to be able to spend some time with Austin as well as the rest of the guys.

It was great to see Allan, Dave, Larry and Robin and get a little spring cleanup done around Austin's house. The highlight of the day for me was being able to sit down with Austin and have lunch including a discussion of Parker Guns and the many trips and events we have enjoyed together.

That's just the kind of house I always imagined Austin living in. Good work guys, that's exactly how organizations like this should work. Is Austin going to be joining us at Hausmann's next weekend?

And as you might expect, he built it himself.
