Blogger Fun In Roswell GA















I had the awesome chance to meet up with some great ex-Navy guys and one former RAF pilot today in Roswell, GA.  Broepatch called us the Secret Squirrels. (I don’t know why – I’m new to the group.)

We met at Mac McGee's Irish Pub in Roswell, GA.
In the rear: Charles, Broepatch, OldNFO and An Englishman in Dixie.  All great bloggers and way above my caliber.   They like to shoot, too.  Guns and ammo was a great topic (though I was lost most of the time.)

In front: Me - Studley Hungwell.

Good food, good ale, good conversation, many laughs, but just not long enough.

We are going to try it again in about 90 days… hopefully OldNFO will be stateside long enough to attend.

Thanks for the good time, guys.

    I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet everyone - especially the Bloggers that I have read and enjoyed so much, such as BorePatch and OldNFO! And the very best part was telling and hearing sea stories! Enjoyed chatting with you Coffeypot - I will be following your blog, hope your shipmates names make it onto the VietNam Memorial wall!

    Are you sure it wasn't BOREPATCH and not BROEPATCH? When I visit I'll be sure and bring my pistols and we can have some target practice. You look like a shooter to me.

    OldNFO, Thank you, Sir.
    Differ, I hope so, too.
    MrG, try hard. It was a blast.
    LJ, that is the way he spells it...BOREPATCH, it must have something to do with the bore of a gun...

    Am I the only one who noticed what you called yourself?

    FB, I have used that moniker many times, but no one believes me (I guess they talked to Judy.)
