Sorry we are out of sync, sir...
Typically, this event depends on IR2DUM's schedule...it usually works out to be the first or second weekend in October.
This event started a few years ago when Bremer called me and said he was on his way back home to Houston. His route through Atlanta was a couple of hours north, but he wanted to take the time to come down and meet us. We had a great visit and supper. The next time he scheduled his trip to NC we called some members and asked if they wanted to be here for supper and to meet DON. Heck yeah, everybody wanted to meet Don. Now, he makes a business trip from Houston to NC twice a year and he is always gracious enuff to go out of his way to come see us and we always have a cookout. Last October there were 6 of us for the cookout. On his springtime migration, we had 12 or more. This Cookout will include even more people from the forum...everyone wants to meet Don. He IS the most interesting man in the world - and he doesn't even drink!
Seriously, though, we just make our place available for folks to get together and invite anyone who wants to come. It is a very special time when forum members who have chatted thru the years to finally meet face to face.
