According to Grapeshot and I think he's dead on...we had 103 people. It went very well and we had a ball.
Not everyone came out for the group picture, but there were enough to be impressive. Inside, it was full.

Very cool that we broke 100. Somewhat bummed that I wasn't keeping track of when the group shot was being taken but still had a great time, and my face is probably in the pictures somewhere.

I'll be keeping an eye on your site for a write up and any other photos. :cool:

Thanks,
Curtis

Out of every batch of pictures, I always get one that means more to me than the others. I was inside and saw several children outside in front of the flag. I ran outside but the family had moved forward in the line.

I asked if I could take a picture and the mother asked what I was going to do with it....

I said I wasn't sure.

I had to think about it a while before I posted it here, and if whoever you are object...let me know and I;ll get it off at once.

This family just seems to represent the best of us.

Nice photos, makes me wanna get back into photography!

Boy... am I pale and skinny or what...
:lol:

Edit to add: that is a great photo with the family and the flag! Outstanding job, great eye! :shock: It's nice to have a skilled photographer/journalist so willing to share in and spread philosophies and ideas behind the RKBA movement. Thanks for your service; it's much appreciated.

For some reason, this just doesn't look like the dangerous bunch of deliverance people Saslaw is so concerned with

Should have gotten the pic after she put the GUNS SAVE LIVES sticker on! By the end of the night all the girls working on the floor had stickers on :)
Everyone in the place had a sticker. I was standing outside and a customer drove up and parked. He looked me over and decided I was too old to hurt anyone and walked in. 3 minutes later he walked out with a takeout order, a big grin on his face and a sticker on his shirt.
