I had a hell of a time, I wanna thank a few people, but if I miss someone dont feel bad..Im old and have a bad memory LOL

Mr. Ethan and family for their generous hosting, great food, and general awesomeness. I had a very nice chat with John when I ran into him at Sloane's after leaving Ethan's. Mrs. Becker was very warm and gracious, was blessed to spend a few moments chatting with her over some chocalate/cherry cookies.

Moose, for his work on the campsite, his excellent teaching/sharing of skills all weekend and for showing us how to break a Becker LOL

Murph for a great pack that I will get a lot of use out of and for bringing the lovely Saint Murphette

Tim/Todd for allowing me to test some of his blades over the weekend...and for his concern I might die from my sleeping arrangement

Lowery for an EXCELLENT job as Rangemaster (I swear we'll get some hawk throwing practice in next time Matt)

Eric/vic for his fun Forging time, and general good cheer

Zach & Derek for some fine breakfasts

Brian/hawk for letting me blast some suppressed firepower!! (ammo aint cheap LOL)

Psy for being a pants-less bada** and for the Smooth Strawberry Sippin Sauce

Gus and Mrs. Gus for showing us how great the Canucks are! One of the nicest couples you will ever meet.

Silver, Tanker, Gutsy, Mark, Mist, Machine.....and everyone who I'm sure Im leaving out, for some great fellowship and fun.


I had a very exciting weekend, learned a lot, met some GREAT people, ate some excellent food, was well loaded down with corn likker....and I will plan to attend the Fall Gathering, Lord willin and the creeks dont rise.

Some great pictures there. Good times. I especially appreciate having the forum members identified because otherwise.......

And good to see you all were honored with the presence of some genuine Canadians.

Looking forward to more pictures.

Nice pics, thrillbilly. It was good meeting your gargantuan presence.
I look like I'm dreaming of cutting lawns on a zero turn.
Man, I felt like crap on Saturday, and it wasn't the strawberry sippin' sauce.
I didn't sleep much the night before, and I think I was fighting off a cold.
Rather than whine like a three-year-old, I chose to nap. Got in two damn good ones too!

 

[Guyon]

That Tyrone Hunt knife is a damn beast! thrillbilly, you do know that Murph traded it to me right before I left, right?

 

[CamH_16]

Whats up with that TM Hunt knife? Anyone care to explain further?

I didn't get to see this Tom Hunt knife everybody is raving about. Sure hope it makes it to the Fall party.

Ok, I went through the first few pages after and before that and maybe I'm dyslexic but did Ethan have anything to do with that knife? Looks like the thing the grim reaper has nightmares about...

 

[Guyon]

Ethan saw that knife for the first time this past weekend. That's not a Becker. It's a Ted, I mean Tyrone, I mean Tim, I mean Todd Hunt knife.

 

[gmoneyluv]

Very kind words thrillbilly!

It was wonderful meeting you and everyone else. And thanks again for letting me play with that single action revolver!

 

[TMHunt]

Thanks guys for the awesome response over the M-18. My appologies for not releasing more info on it. The truth of the matter was it was such a hit at the gathering myself and Murph niether one really got the time to take many pics or play with it much. Thanks Thrill for your awesome pics. As far as info. Murph and I plan on releasing a full pictorial and review very soon. If you cant wait that long feel free to contact myself, Murph or even Moose. he seemed to have a lot of fun with it and is quite knowledgable when he aint got a whiskey bottle hanging out of his jaw! Lol!

 

[Guyon]

I saw the M18 go through a 1.5" sapling in one swipe. Impressive.
I needed more bat speed. I could only get 4/5 through it.
Granted, I was standing on an incline in Crocs, and I was afraid I'd slip and take off a testicle.

 

[DerekH]

Mine was apparently that I swing like a B!@#h.

Dude, I forgot to say thanks for letting loose of that Mora #1 so easily! I kinda feel like I ripped you off.

It's Tom. Just for the record.

If TODD is to difficult for you fools to remember, just call me Big T! Geez!
