Pheasant Fest Rendezvou

[mobirdhunter]

Hey, Ryan,

Elaine and I really enjoyed meeting you and the rest of the folks at LCS. I'm so glad you followed up with your story of your Parker and your pup. As so many of us who are caretakers of "Old Reliable," we know the story behind the gun is what really matters and the gun is what condenses so many wonderful days into what is far from just an inanimate object.

I look forward to seeing your growing participation in our Association. Our best to you and your family (which, of course, includes dogs!).

Garry Gordon & Elaine De Jovin

PS The quotation from your post below expresses eloquently what so many of us who lead the sporting life feel -- thanks!

(The photo below is of Ryan and a couple of old codgers from our group at the Pheasant Fest.)

Old Codgers!! I was the youngest of those two codgers! BWAHAHAHA!!

Ryan, now that I see the photo and know you’re from LCS, the synapses are firing. Memory jogged!! It was nice to meet you and I am sure we’ll cross paths again.

Sorry, Mike, you may have been the youngest, but…it’s all relative.

So now I’m old through osmosis!!

You’re only young once, but you can be immature forever.

Words to live by.

Or..... I may grow old but I refuse to grow up.

Truth. Be careful, we might scare Ryan off!

Some men die of old age some of advanced boyhood.
