Probably, after all what is a shootout without Chris Browne??

Maybe I'll make him chase me in the 'shootout this year....

Captain

WV_hillbilly

  I would have to agree  Captain.  Is he going to bring Kerris too ? I was reading a back issue of Sawmill and Woodlot  that had pics of the 99 shootout . She tailed for him  in that one I think .It  will be great to see you all again .

Hi Kerris here - sorry, took 7 years out to recover after that first shootout (was 3 months pregnant at the time with my girl). Gimme another 2 years and I might be able to tear my little boy off my apron strings - then I'll be back at the shootouts!

I will be there. I grew up not too far away and have family all around, Grampa is in a Alzhiemer home just up the road. CAN YOU GUYS SCHEDULE A MEETING SPOT LIKE YOU DID AT THE PAUL BUNYAN SHOW? I was too new and shy of all you logger types to meet you then, saw some of you with the Forum hats wondering around though. Thanks Reid ;D

    I know I'll be there. Probably both days. I am looking forward to it. I only live only 8 miles from there.  :)  Guys,  bring the wives and a fat wallet. The Expo Center is located at the Eastwood Mall complex. Many places for them to shop and keep them occupied while we shop for our new toys.   8)   There are two hotels within walking distance of the center Holiday Inn Express and Hampton Inn.  Go to  www.sawlex .com for a layout of the show.  Let me know if I can help with any more info.

So Jeff... will you bail me out if'n the boys in the smokey hats take me in? I just can't seem to remember the name of the town where  The Man told me to, "never come back, son."  :o  He had started the conversation with, "You got bail bond, son."  :-[

That was 25 years ago, so hopefully he retired.
