    I had an opportunity to speak with the owner of Paradise Park yesterday before leaving and he wanted me to thank everyone for coming. They had several regular campers come to them telling them how great a group we were and for the size of us we were one of the best behaved they have had. We have been at Paradise Park for 6 years now and he is really hoping to have that continue. He is actually hoping that he can do something for us for our 10 year which I thought was real cool!

    For those of you that stuck around Saturday night I want to thank you. Friday night was so crowded I felt I really missed out on my favorite part of the entire weekend. All of you that joined me around the fire Saturday night certainly made up for it. Think if you ask any of the true regulars they will all tell you sitting around the campfire is all of our favorite part of the weekend! Thanks again! Now Chase go out and get some real glasses!!

    I offered to send him a pair out of my wife's collection of sunglasses. She has several pair that look just like the ones that got put in the fire, in many different colors. Even got a nice pink pair that I think is right up his alley.

    Hey ferg & hank thanks for ever even getting this started. I have to honestly say that the camp was truley better than the shoot.
    Im stealing your skillet breakfast my my own camping with the kids it was awsome.
    My brother in law has never hunted otr fished a day in his life. after being there for saturday night meeting everyone and having all of the awsome food. He was asking me if I thought he could learn to hunt too.
