Yep, I'm just not gonna be able to swing it financially this year guys. I'll miss being there and sharing in all the socializing and good shooting......and great eating!  ;D

You guys will have plenty of fun without me I know. My slot is open for whoever is next in line.

I know I have been saving back some money for gas for a while now.  And I am happy that I have a hunting buddy to split the cost with.  You know it is bad when a tank of gas  would cover your food budget for the trip.  My wife's car would get better gas mileage but there isn't enough room for the all of the ammo let alone all of the other stuff   ::)

This morning I took a five gallon can, three 2.5 gallon cans and a one gallon can down and filled them with gas for the mowers. Cost was $45. I topped off the tank on my Toyota while there and the final bill was $76. Geez gas is expensive these days.

Sorry to hear you're not going to make it John.  After I received your E-mail last week, I was keeping my finger crossed that you would be able to make it.  We'll keep the B.S. flowing enough that we hope to see you next year!  Keep in touch.
