Another beautiful morning...needed a sweater or jacket...and we had a pretty nice
group.  If I'd have known that Lloyd was returning, I would have printed out a copy
of his picture from last week. Hey !!  Look who we have below !!

 

Don - KD7UIZ sent me these pictures taken at Jethro's  on Prince Rd.  They seemed
to have a pretty good time there too !!

It was quite chilly this morning with the temp down to 35 or so at my house. 
We had nice group of 18 or so with a few new faces which included a
prospective ham who is visiting Stan - WE7DOG.  As you will see, he is (was)
a Navy jock.  And included is an "Old Timer" , ROY, who retired from the
USAF about 40 years ago !  Snowbird Glenn - WA9GCK is back too !

I couldn't sit near a Navy Jock without swapping some war stories and the C-123
"Defoliating" aircraft came up.  Here is a picture of a famous C-123 appropriately
named "PATCHES".   These guys had to fly at tree-top level and if you look closely,
you'll see a lot of red patches; some heart shaped.  Also, here's a shot of the
ancient F-102's that I was working on in 1964 when these were taken at Ton Son
Nuit AB, RVN.  In the background you can see an old C-124 "Shaky" MAC work-
horse.  Them were the days all right !  I walked by that Patches many
times on the way to & from the flight-line !  Wonder why I was looking so mean !

Well that's it !  We shattered the record with 28 attending this morning.  The local
crew didn't know what to do with everybody so it ended up with a couple at the
front counter and three at a separate table up front.  Anyway, Larry - KC2FMH
is back in town from Prague and we also had a new face or two as shown.

Wow ! What a beautiful morning.  We had the tables full today so it must have
something to do with the WX.  Cliff - KD7ZBP, PSB (Professional Snow Bird)
is in town and says not to forget the upcoming fest in Quartsite !  He says lots
of hams show up for that event.  Cliff, is that the Gold Rush in November ?

Anyway, it was a very good group with new shirts and all.  Sorry you missed it !

 
KD4ZBP - CLIFF

There were two for breakfast, myself and Don - NO7P and as we left to go to the
swap meet, John - W3CIV walked in.  Better late than never.  

So, here are a bunch of photos from the

OLD PUEBLO RADIO CLUB
 
sponsored ham fest & swap meet for the year.  I'm sure you'll recognize a few of
the folks that showed up this year...for sure ! 

At the very bottom are pictures taken by Tom - W7ZBS at the Wednesday
Village Inn on Grant & Tanque Verde ham lunch.  Also, there's a couple
from Jack - W7NOG to prove that I was actually there !!  In addition to that,
there are three pictures from Wally - KB7GAI.

Wally - KB7GAI wanted me to attend another event, but I just couldn't make it
since I had to get right home and get my internet restored.  Sorry Wally !

And...oh yeah...don't forget the in the park tomorrow !!!

New faces !!  New ham !  It might have been cloudy this morning, but it was a great
breakfast group (as usual).  Jim - W8GRI made it along with some new old hams !

  

Only 10 this morning.  Must be the weather...it's just great !!

As you can see, Jack - W7NOG made it to breakfast with his hot-rod super
market shopping cart !  I've heard it will go 60 !  See the wheelie he's pulling ?
Rumor has it that he got a ticket for 55 in a 40 zone on Broadway !
