Well, first of all, I want to thank everyone for making the campout the success that it was. It was a distinct privilege and a pleasure to host such a stellar group of dedicated PACMANS.
Everyone had a good time, or if they didn't, they did not share it, lol?
I'm sure we will continue with the format next year, maybe in a different location, who knows?
One thing about the image quality. The night photos, with flash, picked up an unbelieveable amount of bounceback from the campfire smoke, and (clear throat) the cigar I was holding in my left hand, once in a while. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
I'm going to post a few here and go back and ID as many as I can, either by their given name or screen name, or both, if possible. Gerry Blair left with the list, (which was incomplete) otherwise I would have more info than I have at the time of this post, baring updating.
above is Tim Behle and Gerry Blair
this is yours truly, with Micheal McCasland and Vic Carlson (Azhunter)
this is Gerry with Bill Rice.
this is Andy and jrbhunter, and I forget the name of the gentleman on the right, but if anyone can help me out, I will update?

The Proffessor kept running off with his girlfriend for hours at a time, But at least they always returned with a smile!
That green cooler is full of small ears of corn, and baked potatos. I didn't get a picture of them or that Dirty Rice ( Best danged rice I've had in years!)
Randy even deep fried a rattlesnake for everyone to try.

Great pics! Wish I could have made it. Did ya'll kill anything other than a bunch of beer cans and cigars?

Brad,
Do a few bottles of good whisky count?
There was a good sized pile of coyotes and grey fox at the end. But I never did hear any final numbers.

Looks like everyone's having a good time. Looks like fun.

Tim,
If there wasn't a few bottles of good whisky killed, I would be extremely disappointed!

There were dead coyote laying EVERYWHERE at all points of the compass around that camp. You sure didnt want to be downwind sometimes!

Leonard, that is AndyL - Myself - Clint. Clint is from Arizona but doesn't post much on the site here. He's a helluva guy, I talked to him for a while and remember most of what he had to say... that was Friday night and by the time it dwindled down to Vic/Leonard and myself my words were getting jumbled. I think we were up until 2:30 or 3 that night, made 5 o'clock roll call pretty tough. Thanks to Ragn for letting me sleep it off a little! ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
I had a great time at the campout, a bunch of top-notched folks were in attendance. I really enjoyed seeing the countryside out there but was relieved to get back here to my cornfields... we've been calling up a lot of animals since I got back. Hope I can make it next year, truely was a pleasure!

JRB, I enjoyed our visits about whitetails. Good luck on this season and very nice meeting you.

Likewise Andy, been trying to get back in the groove of sitting in a stand the last couple days. I guess all that smoke is still permeating from my skin, I haven't seen a decent buck since the drive home from the airport!

I just got the original list of attendees in the mail, from Gerry Blair, today.
It's incomplete, but there are 29 names. LB

Gerry sent me the list also. I know four that aren't on the list. That makes 33.
