    I'll bring a couple of boxes of new blades to trade (individual blade trades OK with me if the blades are wrapped), and if y'all want to see what a Merkur Progress looks like, I'll bring that too.

    and I can bring my M.P. R89 in case you haven't seen one, as well as my micromatic. The micromatic's available for trade.

    I had forgotten that I have the preferences in Email set to delete stuff that is more than 5 days old. Consequently, the PM that was sent with the address where this shindig will be held is gone. Please send it again, but wait until Tuesday so that I'll have it all week. Thanks.

    I am sorry I missed this thread.I am in Baton Rouge.I have been wet shaving
    for 35 years .I don't post much but I do visit this site often .I will be out of town on the 24th ,so I will miss it.I hope there is another gathering .I will be happy to host it at my gun club in Baton Rouge ,Hunters Run Gun Club,and
    treat everyone to a free round of skeet and a few beers.
    I also make my own brushes and restore a lot of vintage brushes.
    I am also planning on a shave products line to sell at the gun club pro shop.
    Cheers Rocket

    cool- although, beer AFTER the skeet shooting, right?

    I'm hoping this will be a repeat event.

    Yep, a good time was had by all. We'll try it again and maybe get even more folks involved. Who knows? Maybe we'll grow this thing until it eventually becomes the regional highlight of the year! Hey, it doesn't hurt to think big!:D

    And thanks, guys, for the goodies. You're going to make a DE shaver out of me yet.

    By all means. I think we're going to try to do it again in October. poppi is the organizer/ringleader so you might want to send him a PM and ask him to be sure to include you in his plans. We'd certainly be happy to have you. The more the merrier!

    CHEERS Rocket

    As far as I'm concerned, it's all about shaving, so anyone who shares an interest in our "obsession" would be welcome.

    Hey Guys,

    Yesterdays get together was alot of fun and, I think, a rousing success. Thanks to all especially Steve for hosting at his home. Good food, good company and a fine time.

    I think we all agreed that we should do this again in the fall, maybe October. Sounds good to me and I'll start thinking it all over and let everyone know plenty in advance so plans can be made.

    We had also mentioned that this was for shavers of all ilk so other board members are welcome although they will probably be slightly harrassed (in good fun).

    We are also going to open it to the region as Steve mentioned. This would be MissArkLaTex mostly but all would be welcome.

    Thanks again to all those there and we'll do this again.
