Mind you, I was only at E's on Saturday and Sunday, but here's what I got. First, some vids.

There was some chopping.

There was a message for Mr. and Mrs. tradewater.

And there was this. If Moose isn't chopping it or shooting it, he's probably blowing it up.

I don't know what these two chumps are doing, but they better be careful. Captain's packing.

It wouldn't be a gathering if E didn't bust out the Stihl.

The Colonel's shiny prize. These scales were pretty sweet, and they glow in the dark.

The chili hit me hard this morning. If you'd done that at 0200, I just might have crapped my hammock.
 
Everyone felt it in their sphincters. That thing was a heck of a firework. And a wee bit more powerful than an M80.
 
I unfortunately have no pictures to share. I got 2 pics that I wanted. A picture of me, Ethan, Moose, and Murph standing together in front of a rain soaked camp. And a pic of a scorpion on one of my knives that I took to show my kids what a scorpion looks like. I knew my pics would not be anywhere as good as Mists or Cbears so I left it to them. Also, as good as their pics are. It still wouldn't do Ethans gathering justice. To be there among this group of poeple is truely a experience that not many poeple in the world get to have. To say Ethan is a pleasant host does not even begin to scratch the surface of his hospitality and his cookin will make you turn your nose up at everything else you are used to eating when you get back. The knowledge shared and the friends made will last a lifetime. Thanks again E for everything.
Sincerely.........Tom Tim Terry Thadious Tiberiuos Hunt. :rolleyes:

Damn, that looks like a good time. Great pictures. This one is going to cost me some money though...

Honestly, there was only one down side of the whole event. Somebody hid the lawnmower so I couldn't power nap on it.
 
Cool, using another computer I can load this thread. Apparently I need to update my laptop with something to do with videos...or something, I've been trying to look at it for two days. Awesome pics man, glad to see some pics of the goings on there Sunday! Oh, and that Terry Hunt guy makes some awesome knives, I brought a couple home myself.
 
Well, we were a little too busy having fun to get many pics, but here's what ended up on our camera that made the cut. It's mostly pics of the beautiful fall color that served as the backdrop for the occasion.

If you've ever wondered how many Beckerheads it takes to set up a hammock...

God this sucks
last year i had the money, and no time
earlier in the year when i was unemployed i had the time and not the money
now, working at this new job, i lack both the time and the money to attend one of these gatherings.

Glad you all had fun, the vids and pics make it look like a blast!
