Saturday, 27 June 2009 Field Day starts this morning and I figured the group would be a little short, but that was not the case. We had a good group and a couple of surprise attendees. N7EOJ - Budd and KB1EDU - Chad were there this AM. Also, Pink showed up with her MOM, no less. All in all it was good. Even though it is Field Day, Bruce - WA1BZQ was there and I'm sure he's headed to the mountain right after breakfast, as was Chad. And guess what, the long, lost WB9TPD was there too !!!

Saturday, 30 March 2009

This is probably our last cool morning for a while and the end of the under 100� days. This
June has been a cool one. We're gonna' have to let Al Gore know he is full of hot air with
his global warming. At least we won't have to buy any carbon credits for exhaling carbon
dioxide this month. What a maroon, as Bugs Bunny use to say !

What happened to this guy ? He was suppose to be here this
morning. I guess we'll have to send a search party out to see where he went !

Hey ! Our favorite server was missing. She actually took the day off. That's hard to believe!

Cheree - Where are you ? You were missed !

Richard was "expounding" !	Hello to Don !	Oscar Hotel Foxtrot !	Vourneen. Doesn't like olive oil !
Dapper Don is back !	John of Green Valley fame !	One of the many "Bobs" !	And here is Jeff !
I made it this time ! I don't know where I was two weeks ago !	Tom is telling 'em !	Ted - AA7HX	Stir that coffee !
Who took this !	Stan the man !	Outside !	I'm ready to roll !
I'm ready to go home !	Hanging around !	Here's a good one of Mike !	Two pair of "lovely" legs !!

Saturday, 13 June 2009 Nice morning for June 13th. I guess this Al Gore's Global Warming has Tucson having cooler temperatures than normal. We had a good group this morning, however as Jeff was saying, when the WX is bad, folks hang around outside and chat for a while. When it's nice, they scatter like flies. Even the baby chicken was ready to hit the road as soon as breakfast was over. We missed a couple of regulars, but they were excused since they're outta' town !

Here's a surprise. The lady on the right is Cheree's Mom and she's working at Jerry Bob's. Do you see any resemblance ?

Bruce was first this morning !	Here's another early bird !	"Me too !" says Mike !	Not far behind is Ray !
And Vourneen !	Don has a "new" GPS !	USN Bob !	My eyes are closed !
My head is turned !	Hey Jesus ! Quit bothering me !	Who me ?	Hello Tony !
Tony brought the Mrs. today !	Jeff made it too !	A bit too close, Jesus !	I'm talking to Don - KD7UIZ !
Good morning Scotty !	Just another "John" !	O.M.G.! What happened to my brother ?	Ted rode his bike ! Of course !
Hey John !	Here they are, outside !	This is either parking by brail or by ear ! Huh Don ?	More outside !
Again !	What was the "peep" I heard ?	It's me ! I want the heck outta' here, fast !!	I can just see the palms swaying and hear the grass skirts rustling !

Saturday, 6 June 2009 Nice morning in Tucson. When I got there about 15 minutes earlier than usual, the choice seats were already taken. Man, that Ray & Vourneen sure get up early ! Our prodigal son Mike - KC9ORD returned and Bob - W1HJT made it this morning. He said he had to bring a survival pack, it was so far from out there near Ryan Field. Plus the long lost W3CIV returned from his big trip back East.
KC9ORD - MIKE	W1HJT - BOB
W3CIV - John (Superman)	Supergirl: "Look Mom, only one arm !"

Bob, are you napping ?	Bruce, bright eyed & bushy-tailed !	Mr. Baker !!	Richard (ex-one-lander)
Nice picture of Vourneen !	Here's Ray - 6 Meter Man !	Wow ! Two weeks in a row that Jeff took a serious picture !	Read the fine print !
Morning Ted !	Hey ! It's KD7TXO ! He has a kitchen pass !	Here's Tom !	Just one of the many Bobs !
Down the table !	Up the table !	Hey Dave ! Nice hat !	Bruce & Bob !
Two guys with t-shirts !	What's Jeff up to ?	We're on-line !	What's Bob looking at ?
See T-Shirts	See T-Shirts	Hey Jeff !	Slim & Trim !

I can't believe that I missed taking Don's picture this week ! Not to worry ! He doesn't change much from week to week ! If I didn't say anything, nobody'd notice !

Saturday, 30 March 2009

We had a great group this morning with a rare appearance of Chris - N7JND (without Angie)
and what's more, we had a ham with a new call show up. Now, we can no longer refer to
her as a "six-lander" and all that the name denotes. She's now officially K7ILA. Congrats to
Pink for snagging that call. Nah, just kidding Pink. Six-landers are OK.

So, where's ? Oh yeah, that's right. He's outta' town. didn't
make it though !

Trying a new format this week. The thumbnail images are bigger.

Saturday, 23 May 2009

The rain may be over. We had two or three days of cool and wet weather. That's
very unusual for Tucson for the month of May. Anyway, we had a good group this
morning with the return of Stan - WE7DOG. Scotty's brother Andrew showed up
and we had a special guest, my son-in-law Brett Bedore, who is down from
Wyoming for our grand-daughter's graduation from Sabino this past Wednesday.

Noteworthy as well was Pink - KG6ILA who is now "packing heat", so nobody had
better mess with her now !

Brett from Linch, Wyoming

Bob, Pink and Bob
NRA members in good standing !

Saturday, 16 May 2009 We had a great group this morning featuring the return of WB9TPD after a long, long absence. I posted his picture below just in case you have forgotten what he looks like. Glad to have you back. Now, if we can just get Nancy back on track. Also, we were missing who says he had a rough night and slept in this morning. I'm gonna' send out a search party for Mike - ORD.
WB9TPD - Lee

Last Saturday, Collier Middle School on Bear Canyon Road had a big event to raise some money and Craig - KD7TXO was a mover & shaker "Dad" making sure it all went smooth. They had a small car show with one of the entries as shown. It has 1300 horses, featuring five hundred & seventy-two cubic inches, two blowers and four 4 - barrel carburetors. The owner says he had fully punched it only once and it scared the heck out of him.

Saturday, 9 May 2009

It's getting warmer !! Not much new to report. Tom - W7ZBS was missing in
action as was Stan - WE7DOG. Hope all is well there. John - W3CIV is on a trip back east. Pink - KD6ILA showed up with Jimmy and she says that she might
become K7ILA soon. That'd be nice. Hope I'm not jinxing it by mentioning it.
Anyway, here's the crew that did show ! And oh yeah, where's Mike ?

Pink has a camera too !		Ricardo !	I'm looking mean !	Bruce !!	Bob is happy !

Saturday, 2 May 2009

Small group this morning. Jeff - AJ7EF & Don - KD7UIZ gulped down their
breakfast and headed for Sierra Vista to the ham fest and I heard Chris & Angie
plus Chad - KB1EDU on the road too. I think W1KSZ was heading down there
too because I heard him ID at about 6:00 AM and he missed breakfast.

I need to get written permission from Adam- KC7DVF to use this
picture to keep the pack-rats out of my lumber pile. Ya' think ?

Saturday, 2 April 2009

As Bruce says, "Another beautiful day in paradise!" The crew was a few short this
morning because Bruce and Stan were doing some ham radio stuff. Basil & Betty
didn't show, Lee & Nancy are still hiding out and we're wondering where Tom -
KD7XL has disappeared to. It's probably best. If everybody showed up we'd
have to set tables outside of Jerry Bobs.

John, what is on that hat ? I didn't know
that the Saudis had cowboys !

In the driver's seat !	See, you DO look different when you don't smile !		Close your eye !	Ray ! Your hat is on fire !	Richard !

Here we go again ! It's a bit chilly this morning and we had some rain with
snow on the mountain. This will probably be the last hurrah of winter for us.
I guess the picnic and ham fest was timed right after all.

The table was full this morning with room for about one more. We also
had a new face this morning as shown.

Make sure you check out the swap meet pictures from last Saturday
and go to N7JND's page to see the pictures from the picnic. All was good.

Guess what ? We didn't have a regular breakfast this morning. Well actually
Craig - KD7TXO and myself had breakfast about 6 AM and I guess Bob - KE7YTF
made it a little later. But, we did have the First Annual Radio Society of Tucson

Ham Radio Fest and Swap Meet this morning and it went well in spite of the
blustery and cool start. As the morning wore on the weather improved.
Thanks to Randy - KF0X and all the others that made the event successful.
We'll be looking forward to the next one. It's good that Tucson is going to
have two swap meets during the year.

There were a couple folks I hadn't seen at a swap meet for years. See if you
can find K7DHD (Dirty Hound Dog) and of all people, ex WB7VON - Harvey !
And would you believe that Tom - AB7IC showed up, talk about a surprise !
I named all of them the best that I could remember. If I missed you, send me
an e-mail with the name & call to go with the picture. wd7f@wd7f.com

Just in case you don't know what Tom - AB7IC looks like, here's his mug !

Saturday, 28 March 2009 This months is almost over. Here it is almost April and it was 36 as I came down Bear Canyon. It MUST be Al Gore's global warming. We had a good group this morning but shy a couple regulars. We missed and however we had Prague's prodigal son Larry - KC2FMH here this morning, back for a week or so, taking care of business. Also, Don - NO7P brought his grand daughter and a couple little ones too. They were having a good time it seemed. Pink - KG6ILA showed up too. Now, if we can get Lee & Nancy to come back.....
KC2FMH - LARRY "Find My Hat"

A Pair to draw to, no ? Don's great-grand kids...wow ! Look at those eyes on that guy to the left !

	Good for the lungs !		Can't dance to it !
	Good for the lungs !		On my way home, I stopped my Mom's and standing half way up the entrance to Far Horizons was this lady playing the bagpipes. You could hear her from quite a distance. I asked her what she was doing there and she said the bagpipes are just too noisy to be close in to the park. Makes sense !

Saturday, 21 March 2009 Wow ! We had a big crowd this morning. I think there were 24 counting myself. We had a snowbird return and a couple of old faces we hadn't seen in a while. As they say, "The joint was jumpin' !" I even got a couple shots of the Jerry Bob's crew that backs up the ladies...and here they are ! No offence meant guys, however, I DO prefer the ladies !!! And of course, what would we do without Jeff's antics ?
