My first visit, albeit a short one, to the Southern. I was really impressed with the guns I saw and the several folks I got to speak with. I got there early on Friday and when I visited the Parker/Smith tent folks were still setting up. What I did get to see was impressive. I missed meeting anyone, but still enjoyed browsing.
I can sure see that there's a lot of behind the scenes work done for this event. I don't know who is responsible, but I offer my humble "thank you" to any- and everyone who helped with the organization and set-up. I hope you know that your work is appreciated.
