It was announced that the honoree, Louis Parker, would not be able to attend. I was really looking forward to it.

Our crew is still going and some first-timers are going too. Just because gas is going up we won’t be changing our plans.

I would like to know what the average expenditure per year is per member on ammo, reloading supplies and GUNS, then see if not going over an additional $50 in gas makes any sense at all. I think we've all begun to dig the hole with this Parker thing, might as well keep on digging!!

Well, Andy, now you're talking like an economist. When I was still at the University and had tough budgetary decisions to make -- pragmatically -- I always consulted the economists.

Life's short, even shorter for some of us. Do what you can when you can.

Maybe or maybe not . Its kinda pointless to worry about it , cause there's not much we can do about it . You either go on as normal and pay the price or die at home sitting in your easy chair .

It's my intention to make it to NC , to Rock Mountain and hopefully to SC in October . Hausemann's in June is on the fence for me and honestly leaning to the nope side . Allgood is having a 16 gauge shoot the saturday of Hausemann's June shoot , I can make do with that . Although I'll miss going to Rock Mountain on sunday after Hausemann's .

I have non-refundable airline tickets to Hausmann's, so I will be there
