CANNOT MAKE THE BLADE SHOW, BUT WILL BE AT THE AUSTIN SHOW, IN AUGUST, AND THE MESQUITE SHOW, IN SEPT. WHO ELSE IS GOING TO BE THERE. ALSO THE TKCA MEETING IS SUPPOSED TO BE SATURDAY MORNING, 7 AM, IN AUSTIN.

I will be able to make the Mesquite show but school starts the first week of August and I won't be able to make the Austin show. Hope to see every body at Mesquite.

I'm planning on the Mesquite show.

Well guys, who is buying the coffee? I'll be back in Mesquite as last year. The only problem I had was that they had me set my camera up next to where they had the lecture on Jim Bowie. I had to listen to that thing half a dozen times. What is the info on Austin?

I 'll hit Austin, and Mesquite this year.No blade though.
Terrill, You could have been set up next to me and got an ear full of JESUS all weekend.

Looking forward to meeting some of you guys there.Come introduce yourselves at the shows.I'm fairly easy to find!

BE BLESSED!!!

Well it looks as if I have to miss Austin. Photographers have hobbies too. I'm taking a week long NRA class on firearm refinishing and bluing. But I'll see all of you in Dallas and Denver if you are heading there.
