Sorry to hear that Don.

I got even more surprises today, pic added to post 1:

Six CPF Gear Large Logo T-Shirts donated by Greta of CPF! Also a ton door prises, magnets, stickers, buttons!!

We owe you Greta!

Matt... 3 of the shirts are large and 3 are X-large... I hope?!?!?

I hope you all have a great time this weekend! Wish I could make it one of these years but this is always a bad time of year for me with one thing or another. This year it is finals in three classes all due by Monday! :duh2:

Thanks again Greta, and good luck with your finals!! I hope I never have to worry about finals again, their always nerve-racking! I'll have to organize something during your vacation or something, it would definitely be worth it!

I didn't unroll the shirts, I wasn't sure I'd be able to get them wrapped up the same :ohgeez:

37 hours away, get your chargers running.

Hugo2x found me on another forum and sent an invite... looks like fun! I am otherwise committed, but had to post anyway.

On the light front, I've sort of gone for the "one to rule them all" approach, and what once was a lockbox of Surefires and Fenixes has dwindled for me, I now basically just have my EDC light... It does the job! (It better, it's a Haiku XR-U :D)

Anyway, Cool get together y'all have going!

Might be there with my soon-to-be 9 year old stepson. Haven't caught up enough on the list, what else is needed to be brought?

I can bring some Cheerwine, something you TX folks arn't lucky enough to have :nana:

:D

That's cool Grog! Texans drink the original Dublin Dr Pepper, so I'll bet they'll love Cheerwine.

I think I need A Sure Fire, it'll definitely help to have one in hand :twothumbs

Make an offer, I'm sure most everything is negotiable.

Good to see you'll be able to make it, I know the meets primarily for torches, but don't be afraid to bring along an SNG or two :sssh:.

I don't know what I was thinking, we should have made this a EDC meet, and got all our friends from knife forums also :ohgeez:

Next one for sure!

I'm really running out of time, I've got TOO MANY Li-Ion cells to charge now! 17 hours and counting......

Re: DFW Texas summer Flashapalooza 2010 It's On!!

I just realized something, when I punch in the address, my GPS gives me the wrong location.

I had to navigate to this coordinates to get the correct location:
N 32.70507, W 97.16236

or if you look at google maps, it's listed as
32.705070, -97.162360

That will take you directly to the entrance for the park for the pavilion. I'll be there early setting up, I've got a ton of stuff to get ready!!

I'm getting the car packed up, and finishing up charging batteries, and getting the wife/kids ready.

I grabbed a few bags of chips, paper towels, and catchup and mustard, and some water.

See you soon.

Those coordinate wouldn't work in my car navigation....
But this address works:

2357 Spanish Trail
