Over the years as we've gone through our highs and lows, some DRTV family members have stepped up with friendship and support. After several years of bad luck, the Mags and I were able to go on vacay down Florida way. My cousin is in the Florida hill country so we went tooling around out there, which is another story.

Since we had talked Enterprise into a fairly sweet ride we decided to drive around a little.



We made some calls and headed out to the coast to meet with some good friends and had a GREAT time. After a little firearm show and tell, we got acquainted with some sweet shine and home brew, followed by seafood and more of the other stuff.

Great friends from left to right:  Hazcat, Deepwater, Crusader Rabbit, and me (Jaybet). Little Haz was hiding, and unfortunately, the best looking one of the bunch, Maggie, was the only one with enough of a brain cell left to remember to take a picture.
We also met the Mimister- fireball of friendly fun. (Don't mind all those 44's scattered around on the table.)

After more shine we tried to call Marshalette, but she was (smartly) previously occupied. We had some really great conversation and a really great visit.
It's a real testament to the family and the friendship of DRTV forum.
In a lot of cases, we really DO have each other's back.
Thanks, guys.

Great to see the Cat!!!

I'm hoping to see him next month when I return the the land of humidity again.

Did Mrs. Deep feed you well?  She reminded me of my grandma - If my hand was empty she was filling it with sandwiches ... and Haz was providing the beverage  ;D

I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

My thoughts exactly, RTFM....

But I did think of a few accessories we could use for a larger gathering.

Hot Tub Boat  might need more than one of these.

Pedal Pub  Takes a crew of 17.  Appears to be 14 pedalers, 1 driver and two bartenders.  Dibs on a bartender slot.

The Professional Microbrewery  A couple of these would come in handy too.

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
