Big n Blue........ What time are you getting in to Portland on Fri?

I'm pretty sure he is leaving in the morning 6-13-'13 at 6 a.m. arrive Portland around noon. Meeting someone there and driving down Fri. . I'm not positive on this but I'm thinking that was his plan. I doubt he'll be on here until you see him in person.

[Dads dogboy]

Well Oregon ain't goin to be the same.....Big N Blue has arrived.

David is here...He, Dad, and JC are out exercising some Hounds this evening.

Today JC's Dad, Mr. Brad Padgett took Mom, Dad and I on a tour of the Hunting Country between Powers and Myrtle Point.....WOW a Beautiful place.

We made a stop and met then visited with Mr. Al Baldwin....a Real Gentleman who KNOWS a Hound and how to make Cat Dogs out of them.

Folks are starting to come in, the Meat is marinating, the Beer is Chilling, the Weather is Great, so I hope we get to meet lots of you all Saturday!

Should i bring my own cow track to drink out of or did that texan bring some extras with him?

[Dads dogboy]

Mark, I would bring my own Cow Track......Big N Blue has a hard time telling which way is down stream from up stream when it is Privy time......he is also bad about "P__ising into the Wind". I think it is a "TEXAS" thing.

Looking foreword to meeting you later today!

[slowandeasy]

Hopefully one of you Ya Hooo's has a camera. And knows how to use it!!! Have fun!


Take care, Willie

[mondomuttruner]

Hey guys, sure wish I could be there. How many of you are still standing? upright that is....bet the story's are a rollin off the ol tongue.

[Dads dogboy]

Willie and Mondo,

There have been NO LIES told.....only stories slightly embellished.

There are already as many Folks here (Fri night) as were at the gathering last year.

JC has a photographer hired and several others are recording this for posterity.

The food tasting has been going good, the Beer has been very Cold. The Conversation warm, new Friends made, old ones reacquainted with.

Anyone still thinking about coming, please do...it is something really SPECIAL!

[chilcotin hillbilly]

I should have found a way to get down there, just to learn a few things about bobbers. Better yet, to sit back and listen to the tales. I hope you all have a good time tip one for me.
