For a long time Jim Martin has tossed around the idea of maybe all of us getting together somewhere, say Vicksburg, for a little fellowship and maybe even some sight-seeing. Maybe even we could talk one of our esteemed historians into giving us a presentation.

We are never gonna get this done without bringing it up with y'all so, not meaning to jump the gun here, I would ask how do y'all feel about this? Let us know here on this thread if you would consider attending. Also, we would have to discuss a time and have the ever faithful volunteers to help get this organized.

For my part, I think it's a good idea... as long as everybody attending promises not to shoot, cut, kick, stab, slash, punch, poke or inflict any bodily harm on yours truly. On the other hand, everybody can feel free to cuss at me without worrying about getting the comment deleted :-)
