Just a little rainier than predicted. About 110 showed up, maybe 10 prepaid M.I.A.s. If you're still enroute, hurry! The food's covered but getting cold. Door prize drawings still to come.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

The OFCC Board just met, and officially endorsed Donald J. Trump for President of the United States. You heard it here first, unless you didn't.

Great PITP day....enjoyed it very much....speakers were great....Had my pic taken with Navy Seal and chatted a bit with him....awesome person....I felt like this guy could kill me in a second...wished him luck and thanked him for being in Harms Way for his country..
Met a lot of new people and put faces with people I already new but never met....

TheLone Ranger was there carrying two revolvers....cool...

The storm system coming through looks like it will wet down the park just as we're starting and then move to the north, leaving us alone for the rest of the day.

I'm bringing my rain jacket, just in case !!
Missed meeting you MWSY if you made it..... Great event! Wife and I met a few of the OFCC crew. Great to see the face behind a username.
Thanks to all who helped and spoke!

MWSY didn't make it. (No idea what happened, hope he and his crew are okay.) But I figured out that it's good to get up and mingle, otherwise you will miss some people. Also why the name stickers are helpful.

Keep posting up and asking. It's a long haul home for the NE attendees and they probably go beddy bye upon arrival.

My car had been over-heating intermittently over the past couple weeks.

Wasn't sure of the problem until today...blown head gasket. :evil:

I really hope everyone had a great time today! (I did not. :? )

Sorry I missed it, but I herniated another disc in June and I just wasn't up to it.

We've had some really wet ones before, but, since I wasn't there, I can't comment on that.

It was awesome to see a huge (yuuuuuge!) turnout on just a bleak and rainy day. Thanks to OFCC for putting the effort into organizing the picnic. My wife and I had a great time despite not being able to take Chuck's German Shepherd home with us!
