San Luis Obispo, CA Camp/Shoot: SOUND OFF! (Need a headcount)

What up, dawgs! I'm home, finally. Stopped in Santa Maria and visited with my in-laws, ate Mexican food, had a nap, watched Sopranos and hit the road at 10pm. (But not before I checked the newest Big 5 ad for camping gear. Note to self: the pink and teal beach cabana does NOT blend.)

Skunky: How was that drive? They opened the 101 at 7pm. By the time I went through Gaviota, the fire was on the other side of the hills. But the power crews were out in force. Nifty. Thanks a mil for setting up the weekend, and for following up with me. You're all they say you are. Wikkity-wik! :cool: (Do I owe you money for the campsite?)

45R: You're like Ichiro Nagata with that new camera, yo. "Nice!" :D I gots to get me a .45 now. Thanks for driving.

Andrew: You da man. I'll be seeing you in BFL. You don't know what you've started.

wombat: If I had half your energy and enthusiasm (and command of knife-related minutiae), I might be somebody. Your parents have my sympathy. :p

Duke: Thanks for adding to my vocabulary, and for letting me drool on your AR. Tell Wendy it was great meeting her, and thanks for tasty grub. (And green tea. And bug repellent. And...)

To all: I can't tell you how great it was to meet and hang out wit' y'all. It just doesn't get any better than shooting, camping, RED MEAT, and hippie shows. Put me down for the next one already, and I WILL bring the missus next time. (And a whole mess of spanking-new tactical camping gear.)



Oh, and one last thing:

Still awaiting the major loaf. Just thought you'd like to know. Now could you turn that music down?
 
Looks like you had loads of fun dudes!

I'll be sure to make room in my schedule for the next time!
 
Worst...pic...ever. Dude, 45R, I TOLD you NOT to post that pic! Rrrgh... :fire:


All crappy pictures of me aside, I had a great time, and we should definitely do it again!
 
>> Wendy said "it was her pleasure" and that she wishes that she could've brought more grub. <<

The Dutchess was a good sport. I was worried about her getting tired of us talking about guns, 9mm vs .45ACP and 870 vs Benelli...y'all're a bunch of gundorks! :evil:

>> 1) I need to buy Surefire batteries (thanks to 45R and Skizunk)
2) I need a digital SLR
3) I need to bring beer next time
4) I need to bring a heck of a lot more 7.62Nato (sorry Combat-Wizombat)
5) Average Guy's a pure savage (he owned that steak)
6) I need to turn my head next time we run into shameless hippies
7) California's THR crew pWnZ <<

1. www.surefire.com has a dozen for $15 last I checked.
2. I'm going to throw down the gauntlet and end this Canon vs Nikon debate once and for all...
3. Two words: On Duty
5. What can I say, he's a growing boy
6. Or tell them to turn off the lights?
7. Mic check on the turntables!

>> 8) I gotta pack chapstick in the BOB!
9) Turn the knob bro, Turn the knob on the BBQ!!! <<

LOL!!!! How are things going there, Rosy Red? :evil:
10) The Skunk needs to either get an Internet enabled PDA or lug the notebook around every time he travels or else he would have missed his Sunday evening engagement sitting in traffic.

The drive back was great. Next time I take a trip, I'm taking the country roads. I didn't stop to take pictures since I was in a hurry. The gas station across the street was closed so I did it on 2/3 of a tank which made me nervous, but having 7 days of water, food and lots of ammo was comforting. I'll have to drive that route again just to take photos.

All that they say I am? Dude I was surprised you weren't turned off by my untacticality!

>> Still awaiting the major loaf. Just thought you'd like to know. Now could you turn that music down? <<

:evil:

>> I've been thinking. Maybe you need a more appropriate screen name. I considered "Duke of Showers" and "Duke of Loaf," but they don't have quite the same ring as...
"Duke of Hair Gel." <<

Or Duke of GQ $50 shirt?

>> Talkin' about loafz... Did you lay any cable yet??? The one that I took was absolutely devastatin'!!! <<

Good thing I had my Surefire with me when the lights went out at AJ Spurs! I wouldn't have been able to tell if the cleaning patches did their job :eek:

>> Where the heck is Skunky? <<

Dialup isn't very conducive to the THR-ing environment....

Anyway, all I have to say is "Roadrunner One" :evil:
 
Skunk and the ANIMAL after pounding down some grubbing bovine!!!!!
They were trading some spinning moves!!

LOL!!!! How are things going there, Rosy Red?

They are sun burned, peeling and hurt like :fire: but they are healing now. Thank goodness Wendy had chapstick. It was able to hold me down till I got to Salinas!!!!!!!
