HEY! There's a lot of much older guys out here!

Went to Ponderosa a few weeks ago with the princess. The young pup gave me the senior discount! I still have a year to go before I qualify for that. Didn't know whether to thank him or hit him, so I just took the discount being the skin flint that I am.;)

2 interested so far anyone else?

Unfortunately interested doesn't always mean available, but if the invite extends to those with <10 posts who've never formally met anyone on the board then I'm definitely interested! Is there a particular time of day you're thinking of?

Marines only for this event. Also unfortunately since this is on private land it has to be people that can be vouched for.
