I'll be there.

Can't recall that I've ever been to any Aunt Sarah's Pancake House. :shock:
That's the one that the Health Dept. shut down a few years ago.:lol:

Looks like I'm not going to make it for breakfast.

Something on the dinner plate has been arguing with me all night. Thought I had gotten rid of dinner, lunch and any portion of yesterday's breakfast that was still hanging around, but apparently not.

You all play nicely.

stay safe.

Good to see everyone again this morning, good size group too
Yep - had a total of 12 men, women and kids - great group and conversation.

Service was top drawer too. Actually a lot better the some recent breakfasts at "the fireplace" place. Never had to ask for a refill either - server was just there.

Quite sure that he appreciated our gratitude too. :)

Shot my AR for the first time afterward - never a hiccup and after the first magazine the barrel settled in and got some nice groups. Ran a few mags thru the 1911 and came away with the promise to shoot more often.

Good breakfast and company.

Glad you finally shot the thing GS, now if the end of the world happens, you'll be ready:lol:

If you're interested, here's the Whizzer Cam. The little underwater camera did better than I thought it would. WB is off and the lens is far from top notch, but it works. Now when Sailor Bob's boat sinks, I'll be able to enjoy the show:cuss:

Tomorrow, HD Video in Surry.

Pretty neat video.

BMW got close to you didn't it? I wonder if they thought "that damn bike actually caught up to me" when you got behind them at the stop. :p

Now you just gotta rig up some stabilizing mechanism for the 7D so it can handle the ride better. :dude:

I figured it out when I got back. I got some sugar somehow and couldn'y see for a while. When I can't see, I have to think just to break the boredom :lol:

I have a camera/binocular strap that is a shoulder strap deal and holds it on your chest. I added a little padding to the back of the camera to bring the lens up some and it;s done. Should cut way down on the vibration.

You're thinking of the good Sailor...I was thinking of the little irritant. Maybe it isn't Bob.:uhoh:

Yep. I'm kind of interested in how it turns out too.

Have to check out the video at work as my connection speed is sub par, but on the receicing end the powder smell today was like a finely tuned steak to the nose. The sound of the rounds going down range as well inticed a few more of my neighbors to a shooting attitude. I am noping that at next breakfast we may have one new party as my neghbor has expressed a little intrest in finding out a little more of OCDO and VCDL.

Hard to beat eggs, potatoes and gunpowder in the morning.

Bring 'em on and let them know that we talk about more than properly holstered handguns at breakfasts and dinners too. :lol:

You need some VCDL info cards to pass out.
