Kirk, I hope they are waiting for us at our post office when we return from our trip. So, are you a Gordon lover, and might we see you at the Fest?

I'll be walking my Gordon in the parade on Friday, attending some of the presentations, checking out the vendors, sampling arena food. It's got so many seminars you need at least two days to catch all of the ones of interest, but I've only taken in Fridays at each that I've been to--next time it's up in Omaha I'll get in multiple days.

I hope you can wander by with your Gordon. There are several members who have Gordon’s, too. Check out some of my threads in the hunting section to see some photos.

BTW, the Hawaiian shirts arrived and my wife and I will be wearing them on Hawaiian shirt Friday.

Look forward to seeing those!

Just how widespread is that Hawaiian shirt Friday going to reach?

All trends start somewhere. This one’s epicenter is the Parker Gun Collector’s booth. We would love to have a new member owned by a Gordon join us there.

All the cool kids will be doing it.

Some of us Parker shooters began doing it about 5 years ago. It took off 2-3 years ago at various multi-day shoots. We really made it big at our July shoot at Rock Mountain where we had easily 20 or more shooters wearing Hawaiian shirts. Everyone who wore a Hawaiian shirt or bright bowling shirt got lei’d too!!

I see. How did he get lei'd? And don't tell me it's the shirt. He'd get beat up if he showed up in a west Baltimore corner bar. But a handsome rebel non the less.
