Yep "Soggy Bottom Lead Fling". Never had an official name for this year''s airgun/camping event, but this is my suggestion.
Soggy, indeed! Most sane members left on Saturday and Sunday, but Bearridge, Bruce and I slogged through amidst tornado warnings and torrential rains until this morning. We spent a harrowing Sunday evening looking at the skies, checking the weather radar on Bruce's I phone , and discussing whether we'd take refuge between the frame members of a large disk harrow or up next to a heavy dirt roller. We could hear the tornado sirens from the neighboring town of Gloster, Ms. several times during the evening.
As usual, we had way too much good food. Seedtick was the resident short order cook for breakfast. Lots of bacon, eggs and some of bearidge's cheese grits was on the menu. Pete fried us up some catfish and boudin balls one night. He also grilled some Fred Flintstone-sized ribeyes over the fire. Blind keith manned the Dutch oven as usual and turned out some great cornbread, yeast rolls and homemade bisquits. Snacking foods consisted of pretzels, chips, oranges, bearidge's special roasted pecans, nacho chips, peanuts, cookies, cakes, pickled peppers, etc. We had a pretty decently stocked bar with various bourbons, whiskies and wines. Adult beverages were only consumed to "group tightening" proportions during shooting sessions . :mrgreen:
I'll let the others chime in.
