    Arizona get-together

    Well, how about it? Anyone interested? Or maybe just breakfast on Saturday morning before going to the range, whether Phx, Tuc, Flag, Pres, wherever...

    I live in Phoenix and would be interested in a GTG. I work offshore and will not be back until the 20th of Jan.

    So Jan 25th first Saturday after brtelec is back on dry ground
    - How about late lunch as I have morning stuff I always need to do? And if driving to Phx from elsewhere gives time to get there.
    - Besides the winds kick up on desert starting about 10:30am so do your shooting before the wind starts then socialize.
    - What kind of resturant? Denny's or ??

    If this works out maybe we should consider rotational -
    one in phx - next one outside phx metro - Tucson, or up north

    -
    heck we can all go have lunch at BBQJoe's in Wikieup AZ - long drive but good food!


    And we should time it for the next Big Sandy Shoot 04,05, and 06th April 2014

    Sweet, I'm in! I can generally rearrange things for the weekend. I'm in Mesa, but willing to travel to wherever the most of us are.

    I'm in if we meet up in central Az in or around the Phx area. Poor health makes a long drive difficult for me.

    I might be able to make it; depending on my work schedule for that particular weekend and as long as it's not real far away.

    The weekends are generally when I do all the running around trying to play catch up with all the chores I put off during the week but, I'd really like to put some faces on some of the user names I've had the pleasure of chatting with online.

    Would any of you be interested in meeting up supporting Phil Robertson and Duck Dynasty's chick-phil-a-day on the 21st. I'm not sure if we have a Chick-Phil restaurant in the Phx area.

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013...k-dynast-star/

    https://www.facebook.com/chickphiladay

    Net search revealed they are all over the valley. Here is my suggestion, not exactly sure but it is in the Metro Center Mall.
    9617 N Metro Pkwy W
    Phoenix, AZ 85051
    Phone number (602) 870-1203

    I will definitely be there around lunch time. Anybody not caring to join the protest, possibly we can do this on the 21st and another on the 25th.

    Of course, I'm always game for something like this.
    Guns should only be allowed in places where people don't want to be shot.

    I'm open for get-together at a another date but welcome anybody wishing to join me at the Duck Dynasty's chick-phil-a-day on the 21st at the Metro Center location.

    I was really irritated when the queers came out complaining but now that Jesse Jackson is involved demanding his participation along with Cracker Barrel. I want to do anything I can to support Robertson. I'm not a fan of the program, only watched it a couple times. Now with Jesse's involvement and his complaints of Duck Dynasty and Cracker Barrel's white privilege and his anticipated attempt to bleed both Duck Dynasty and Cracker Barrel and line his and Operation PUSH's pockets. I'm willing to do anything I can to help defeat Jackson's blackmail. Hopefully Duck Dynasty and Cracker Barrel's parent corporations wont bend over and hand him a check like the wimps at NASCAR and many others did.
