Wow! I didn't know what to expect but I never dreamed the gathering would be so much fun and so fattening. Congratulations to Mickey and all his helpers and sponsors for a job well done. The location was beautiful and the food was outstanding. My wife and I couldn't believe the friendly atmosphere and the welcome we received from these eggheads. I thought everyone would cook on Saturday but they were cooking when we registered on Friday, then on Saturday, then at the party after the official event. I really felt guilty eating all their food. We met people from all over the state, the nation, and Mexico. A smile on every face and food on every plate. What a great event. [/img]

GREAT pics! Must have been a FUN bunch!

Some great photos Johnny. If it's okay with you I might use some of them in "Salado Egghead Gathering - The Movie" when I get around to it. Or is it a "roundtoit?"
What you said was Eggactly what the intent was all along. Have fun, eat well and make lots of new friends.
Glad you enjoyed it. I know we did.

You are more than welcome to any or all of the photos. I tried to put all of them on as an album but couldn't get anything to work.
By the way, are you craftsman who mkes the custom handles? If so, I would like to buy one.
Johnny -
Great photographs - looks like everyone was having a very nice time. I'm constantly amazed at the kindness of fellow eggers....hope to meet you one day at an eggfest (have not made it to one yet, but hope to do so in the near future).

What good photos Johnny.
Very nice to meet you guys.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers. -
Thanks for the pic's.

Mickey, Has someone posted a pic of you? I want to see what you look like. :ermm:

Tim think of a speedbump.
As of now I am laying down in bed or the middle of the road - it just don't matter.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers. -
Second picture without the hat.

I bet your plum wore out.
It's got to be a big undertaking. :huh: -
Thanks, Johnny, for posting the pics!

You're probably thinking of Lawn Ranger for handle-making. He generously donated a couple of them for the Gathering but he mentioned that he is discontinuing making them for now. Lots of irons in the fire and he needs a break.
A few hundred of us have enjoyed his custom made handles over the past few years. I wouldn't take anything for mine.
Spring "Flying Off The Handle Is Poor Flying" Chicken -
Thanks for the reply. I won't bother him.

Nice to meet you and the "little lady."
Glad you felt "at home!"
Pics reflect a nice cross section of the day's magic. Hope to see you two at many more regional fests with a camera in 1 hand and a spatula in the other -
Thanks Johnny.
You may want to edit your post. When I went back to it I had to scrool far to the right as well as down. -
Hey neighbor! It was so nice to meet you both. I'm so glad you had a great time and I hope to see you in OKC like Kari said "with spatula in hand"!
-
Hey Tweety, make sure you and Sylvester stop by and say hi in OKC, I don't think we've met yet.
Not long now.
Doug
