Title: Great day
Post by: West Augusta on December 30, 2016, 07:18:47 PM
I found out that Jeff White and I actually work together and only live about a half hour apart so one day this week LT (firedup) and I gathered up a few boxes of calls and paid Jeff a visit and ran a bunch of calls including a bunch he made.  Jeff has come a long way in a short period of time in making his box calls.

Somehow I didn't get a picture of LT.
All said, it was great meeting you Jeff and look forward to getting a long and short box  from you.

It sure was a great day. Never thought when I started making calls I would meet so many good people. Lt and Steve are great guys willing to help in any way they can. I will be looking forward to doing this again someday soon. So many great calls in my little shop I was like kid in a candy store.

 It was a real good day!  A fun day of calls, running calls, meeting new people who share the crazy addiction and making new friends. Digging thru steves box of goodies was fun. Steve, those I drooled on are damaged and I don't mind a  damaged call or 2 .... just saying. Jeff White is obviously putting some work and thought into building and is serious about it and it really shows.  *up* And a nice young man to boot. His little daughter Brooklyn is a true sweeheart. He and Steve actually seemed to enjoy themselves even if they did have to put up with me. Lol. LT

Bill, you are always welcome. Bring some calls, your collection dwarfs might mine in numbers and quality.
Shame you live so far away.

I had to move Bill. The old job was killing me.  New job is much better in more ways than one.

Well, I found out I had 1 of Mr Whites strikers in my stuff when I got home. That is a poor way to introduce ones self... :(. It's unfortunate that most of us are separated by many miles. We all are missing some good times

The good folks met throughout this journey is what keeps me going.  I have no doubt this was a great gathering.
