You don't look that well, I bet you may come down with something in May.  Just a guess but if you do, I bet some of us can write you a sick note for your boss.:ph34r:

Dan & I have discussed the idea of an 1860 Henry match within a match, which could be really cool (according to us). I know there's some safe queens out there that are being neglected! 

 

If you're man or woman enough, bring an 1860 Henry for your main match rifle! Throw down!  :D

Still working on the details on it.  It looks as if the dinner train is super expensive and requires a minimum of 40 folks to attend.  

 

But you can rent the train for the ride and bring food.  So leaning towards a Friday night social possibly... With snack type food?  Got an email out to the folks with some questions and just waiting for a reply.  I think it would be a hoot!  Get a picture of the whole group at the depot next to train all dressed up. Then get to spend some time on the train telling stories and shoot'n the breeze.

 

Will keep folks informed on what i find out.

Sounds great, something different for change.

we had a paddle steamer dinner and cruise on the Murray river in Australia back in 05 and it was great.

The train has three main cars, one dinning car with A/C (seats 56)... and two open cars with Canopy tops (seat 40 each).  Personally I think the open cars would be great in the cool evenings in May!
