Re: Fireworks with IFGian's in Michael IL, USA
Thanks XL - Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of Rum!
Preferably Old Monk, Old Cask or Khoday's - (we don't get any here in Canada - my next target - bring them in - ) brilliant stuff!
Sorry gentlemen, I haven't been able to acknowledge all the lovely comments and repartee's - I truly do acknowledge the interest and appreciation.
My company's retail format schedules unfortunately, have left me with little remaining, usable muzzle velocity over the last few days. I apologize, I shall make up for it on Wed and then on the long Thanksgiving weekend here Sat, Sun and Mon.
What great fun and camaraderie - thank you, thank you! I am looking forward to the next meet wherever!

The video link is a double whammy because after the end, the "similar videos" link also shows the video of CK and Baljit shooting in Kelowna.

Continue on Day 4.
Guy’s, after I fire the last shot in this meet we said goodbye to Mark and his family and three of us (XL, CK, and I) on our way to St.Louis airport.
Here we are back on the farry.
Back on the Hwy.
We have a plan for the lunch together at the airport but XL said he have 8+hrs.drive ahead of him so he have to go. He drops us off at the airport and after that he is on his way back to home and we went inside the airport.
Here we are inside the airport and we have a enough time for checkin so we decide let’s have a lunch first before we going for checkin.
Here when we are ready for our flight back to Seattle.
We are on the way back to Seattle.

Re: Fireworks with IFGian's in Michael IL, USA
I would like to thank Mark and his family for hosting this meet. It is a big deal for someone to open up their house and put up with a large crowd descending on them, even if it is only for a weekend. Mark, Jennifer and their children made us all feel very welcome. I can't thank them enough for that. I also want to thank all who made it for taking the trouble to drive and fly from such distances to make this meet. I hope that future meets will have more IFG members attending.
It was a memorable weekend and it was great to see Mark, Amit, Baljit, CK and Haji in person. I would also like to thank Baljit for presenting me with a cap and shirt from his British Columbia IPSC chapter.
