Pat already posted a picture and a brief note about the get together at his home.
De and I drove to the Dallas area, to meet with Pat & Judy Perry and Lindel Easley.
We spent several hours talking about lots of things, even the Six.
Had a wonderful supper at Uncle Bucks, and great conversation.
De and I were really happy that we made the drive to have the get together.
There is nothing like talking with those who worked the Six. Doesn't make any difference if you were a tire kicker, clock winder, squawk box fixer, blow torch wrench turner, weenie, or what, we all worked the Ultimate Interceptor, and are a unique fraternity.
De and I are very grateful to Pat and Judy for inviting us to their lovely home and making us feel so very special.
We look forward to doing it again, and, we hope, that Lindel's bride will be able to join us.
To all of you, if you get the opportunity to get together with someone from our Forum, take it. The time will be well spent.
Jim Too

De and I had a wonderful time to-day, as we met The Old Sarge and his bride Sandy, for a meal at the Chili's in Seguin.
It was really great to sit and chat for a couple hours, along with eating.
It is always a pleasure to visit live with our Forum family, and hope we can do more in future.
If you have the time when you travel, contact our members who live along the way, and meet them for a cuppa or a sit-down.
It will be worth the time.

Hey, if y'all are ever in the Dallas area again, count me in. I'd love to visit and chat about the six.

I'll be in OKC the last week in July, and hope to make it down that weekend. I grew up in Irving and Mom is still there.
