Ladies and Gents,,, The Port Orchard Meet and Greet will be moving..
It will still be scheduled for noon,,,
thats 12 hundred for us that know.
So far I have taken it upon myself to schedule it at the Bowling Alley.
It is just around the bend and up the hill from our old location.
They have food we will enjoy, they have great service, and good prices.
They are not a chain conglomerate, but really just a local Mom and Pop and deserve our patronage.

I ask all the regulars of the 3rd Saturday meet to chime in here and encourage all the rabble to come.
I encourage all the folks that live local to grab your friends and come make this rebirth a success.

I ask,,, and I encourage,,, Thats all I really can do....


P.S. Dont let his Meet go the way of the DoDo Bird...
Dont let this Meet Die the Way the 2nd Saturday in Federal Way died..

You See this,
I am Not asking for PMs to tell you where.
I am Not proposing to announce a new location sometime in the future.
This meet is Not an Invitation Only Meet!!!!

If you Ever Came to a meet in Kitsap County,
I Implore you to gather your 2A brothers and sisters,
friends and neighbors and come!
Open Carry, Conceal Carry or Dont Carry,
but support the Longest, Bestest, continiously
running OC Meet And Greet in the State of Washington!

If that doesn't work out I have talked to the people @ Kelly's café at the corner of Jackson and Lund and they also said we are welcome there. The first two places I called were Moon dogs and the Homemade Café and they said guns were not welcome at either place. https://www.facebook.com/KellysCafeEspressoPortOrchard Thank you all for your support for our Port Orchard meeting And I think I will be able to make next months meeting but will be leaving after that.

I know it is still more than a week out but just to remind everyone the meeting is at the HI JOY bowling alley on the 20th of this month As it will be my last foreseeable meeting in WA. I hope you will all come have some coffee with me. Going to miss a lot of you guys and girls. But hopefully I can get a meeting started down there when I get settled in.

Wowwie!!!

Face it,,, you wouldnt be comming to Port Orchard Anyway!!! Sooooo.
If you want to go on Sunday,,, You probably even want to go somewhere near your town...
Why dont YOU start your own meet and greet on your favorite day, and your own favorite location?
Well,,, While your at it,, Why dont you even pick your own favorite time!

In deed! Who doesnt live on Bainbridge, but says they do?
Sooo,, maybe you up date your location?
Look.... this meet is one of the last that is still going on,
and now, we are about to loose the core member to Oklahoma.
I am a core dude.
Psbart is a core dudette.
EmnofSeattle has been a regular, but now is driving a truck, I dont know where, I dont know when...

Regular meets throughout this state have dwindled or just plain crashed and burned,,, Sad...

Their are many folks living between Paulsbo and Gig Harbor.
It has been hard to get them to come to Port Orchard On Saturday.
Some say its too early, some say its too late, some say I work that day, some say "I dont like coffee"!!!
The 3rd Saturday Port Orchard meet, doesnt have to always be on Saturday,
It doesnt have to be on the 3rd Saturday,
It doesnt have to be in Port Orchard,
It doesnt have to be at noon!
It just HAS to continue!!!!

Im up for Any Ideas,, throw them out here,,,,
I really want to have to get up,
get dressed,
and go out side,
at least once a month
to spend some time
with other folks that are armed for self defense,,,
cause they could shoot me,,,

I makes me feel alive!!!

BTW,,, I am very flexible,, I would be happy to meet with you, just about
Anywhere local, and about Anytime,,,, after Noon!!!

Well,,,

Sooo,, I did all the right stuff.
Two alarms set.
Lay down early so I can get lots of sleep.
Wake up at 7 something!
Felt bad as I must have slept through the whole damn day, missed the meet!
Finally,, after much research, I discover that I am not terribly late,, I am terribly early!!!

Sooo I left on time, arrived on time.
Met Clay and Brad yackin in the parking lot, then Catherine shows up, lookin nice with 2 purdy guns.
Went in, all ordered food, then DocB shows up with his wife, on their way to someplace else.
And Psbart with her 3 kiddos stop by long enough to say hi to us smokers and wish Clay good luck in Oklahoma.

Food was good, prices were fine, service was great, stayed till almost 3.
Made my regular stops on the way home.
Should have an ATF store so I dont have to stop 3 separate places
Alcohol,,, Tobaco,,, and Firearms... wouldnt that be convenient?

Well,,,

Aaaww heck...
Sooo when you gonna leave?
Maybe a 2nd Sat meet before your departure?
Maybe a 3rd Wed meet?
I will miss you, But I dont want the meets to end.
I mean, You are just one guy, but maybe the backbone of the P.O. meets.

But their is a problem with this particular 3rd Sat meet,,,
Im not gonna be there,,, And I hope nobody else is there either!

The 3rd Sat of this month is the "No On 594 rally" in Westlake Center, down town Seattle!!!

I Will be there,,, And I expect anybody and everybody that cares about their 2nd amendment rights
to be there,,, in Seattle, at Westlake Center, at 11 AM!!!

Sorry we missed connections. I was at the Rally for an hour or so.. Didn't see any OCDO swag. Was with the WaGun crowd if you saw us.
Been thinking of a Silverdale/Brem Sunday meet,know any good locales?
