Well that was fun. Met some new faces, and missed some old ones.

A brief re cap: Everyone that was there had plenty to eat. It was an open carry feast. As it turned out, there was a race for cancer or something like that, and many thousands of people came by. There were about half a dozen cops that came by, including one motorcycle officer that stayed on the corner to direct traffic away from the race for at least half the time we were there. No one, and I do mean no one, even mentioned anything about us OCing. The police didn't care, nor did the folks walking by.

It was lots of fun, and although I'm moving out of state, I'm going to be coming back to visit at some point, and I have every intention of trying to plan a trip to coincide with an OC meet. I look forward to the next one I see you guys and gals at. :cool:

Sorry I had to miss it guys. My weekend got destroyed and I'm just now trying to catch up. Glad to hear it went well. Now I gotta go listen to the Saturday Afternoon Shootout. I missed that too. :(

Thanks to all that attended and helped make this a fun time for all. We had about a dozen people attend. MY family had fun, my 13 year old daughter even said it "wasn't terrible" which is high praise indeed. Even thought the downtown was crowded with a cancer run that went along our street and parking was crowded it was fun and the weather was good. We even had our own motorcycle officer patrolling our street and the run route. He gave a ticket to someone that was parked along the run route (see photo). We always seem to have a good time when we get together.
