Forgive the intrusion - I’m a newby that has spent the last few days reading everything here, starting from the first post. I’ve always been a Walker fan, Josey Wales, blah, blah...you’ve all been there and done that. Reading through everything and seeing the establishment, development, and then what appears to be a slow decline in this site, I wonder what happened. There are still plenty of interesting posts, great photos, lively discussions and useful information, but activity seemed to peak around 2012 and the number of posts has declined drastically. All the old original members have gone, most without explanation or a fond farewell. The listing of new members and the club roster has also gone, apparently never to return. Folks are still requesting membership, but does that really have any meaning at this point? Maybe absorbing everything that happened over an eight year period in a week has left me with a false sense of nostalgia I have no right to experience or comment on, but it was as if I got to know these folks, and then they were gone.
Okay, enough pontificating. I’ve always wanted a Walker, but the time and money were never right. Two days ago my wife informed me we had a $1000 worth of points on a Cabelas Visa credit card we had been using for years. She had no idea until she ordered a jacket and they asked her if she wanted to use her points to pay for it. She then calmly asked me if there was anything at Cabelas I wanted to buy. Uh, yeah, honey, there is. So today I drove over to the store, examined the two new in the box Walkers they had, picked the nicest one and brought it home. Too late tonight, but I’ll post pictures tomorrow. It’s just a regular, out of the box Walker, but to me it’s the best there is. So, I guess I’m asking, once I post the photo, to join up. We are still doing that - right?
