Ya, I'm still kickin', just not as high! I'd love to get down to see you and Carol again, won't know for sure until it gets a little closer. If I can, I'll bring some pies. Maybe Japanese Fruit Pie, or Sweet Tater(dang I just drooled)... or both. :letseat:

Well I'm relatively new here but I'd love to meet the regulars here and some local VA gun enthusiasts, and a new place to shoot is always a good thing.

I'm a bit of a pork connoisseur and I've got a 9lb butt in the freezer that's been waiting for a good reason to smoke.

Am I invited?

Alright well put me down as a newcomer so long as the OP doesn't have any objections.

I'll be bringing homemade smoked pork BBQ, Eastern NC style.

Been a while since I've been in the Dinwiddie area, where is the location in regards to VMP? Of course I'll use GPS to get there but I'm just wondering what kind of drive I've got. VMP, which is where most of my time in Dinwiddie has been spent in the past, is about a 45min drive from where I am.


Oh yeah, and what time does this shindig start?

Your north coordinate seems close, but I think thats off a minor amount.

-72 for the west, has me in the atlantic. I'd guess we need somewhere about -77 to be in the right general area.

can you double check the coordinates, I think you're all wet :hysterical:

Sounds good Randy. Google matches my GPS so I guess I'll give you a call if I get lost lol.

I'll have to pass on the adult beverages though unless there's somewhere there to lay up for the night. Looks like I'll have over an hour drive.

Forecast looks good right now but it's still a ways off. Is there a rain date?

Who's bringing the golf balls?

This looks like it's shaping up to be a fun time. I will certainly miss being there, this year.
