If nothing breaks bigger than a shoe string and Lord willing, I'll be there. Registration is now open...see link below.

Looks like a good time indeed, with PC refreshments afterwards.

This has always been on my list to make, both me and my Brother, when we were doing alot of shooting back 25 years or so.  Looks like I'll never make it now.
My Dad used to make us sit and watch the Sgt York movie with great reverance, and keep our mouths shut.  We all had great respect for the story.
"Maw wants ya Alvin" has long been a greeting between those in the family.

I plan on being there as a Tennessee resident by then.
