Trip Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Those Boys worked their butts off!! I've never seen kids work so hard in this age of sit and play with texting...outstanding young men..and i was proud to meet them...also i might add, had they not moved that 5 tons of grain up 2 flights of stairs, "'SHE" would have made me do it... so thank you guys!!! This was a great time for me and I hoped they enjoyed it as much as I did,,, Link to comment
Stephanie Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Necie! How could I forget the Barbie's!! Oh My, now I have to add some to the "tale"! Link to comment
Crazy4Canning Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Sorry if I implied something that wasn't true...went and deleted my post. No doubt your boys are outstanding young men. I look forward to meeting them someday. Link to comment
Jewlzm Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 THank you so much for adding the videos Link to comment
Stephanie Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 ((C4C)) You didn't need to delete your post, I just didn't want anyone getting the wrong impression. Darlene, Trip, Necie, Westie, Helen, John, well everyone just kept bragging and bragging about how hard the boys worked. And that one little glimpse may have made it seem that they were hesitant to do so. I know, without a doubt, you weren't trying to imply anything. Just thought I would clarify for those who weren't there. Link to comment
Crazy4Canning Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 thanks Steph...gotta go start my day since chat is down... have to finish soup. Link to comment
ol'momma Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Geez Trip..Between the IM vid that AH posted, and now WG's posts, you're getting to be quite the YouTube celebrity. Shall I cower in awe?? Link to comment
OldMaineBear Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 He'll be the next You Tube Celeb of the week and we'll never be able to keep him well grounded again. Looks and sounds like the kids are the ones who gained the most from him being there. Nice job Trip. I may even let you get by with calling yourself a Bear and adopt you into the clan.

Trip Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 For my part if those vids had never been posted I'd be happy... as for my haranging the kids about fire wood....there I was relaxing in the house with the rest of the clan, when I was informed I had to help the kids have a fire to make smores..schmourz...whatever.... So i go outside and said ok gather wood...and here they all go...picking up one twig and walking back with it...well it was easy to see this could be the longest fire building since OGG dragged a burning tree limb into his cave...so i became a drill Sgt...it never dawned on me until later that maybe none of them really knew about building a camp fire...MY BAD!!!... Next time I'll know enough to start by explaining the whole thing step by step... yes Doris there is a proper way to do it, and I never explained the term "Squaw wood" to them..nuther bad on me... Anyway, all in all it got done, then a bunch of ladies showed up and took over the fire...think i was snookere3d...but the labor gang got their fire and made scmores and all was fine... I;m not a good teacher i guess...I assume if I know it everybody else does too... I will try to do better in the future... Link to comment

Cat Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Well, I don't know about "cowering", but I know that seeing you through others' eyes has greatly impressed me with your knowledge, skill, and sense of fun. *Almost* makes me sorry I posted your picture in the pink tutu... but not quite...

Stephanie Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 (((Trip))) You were a great teacher! Seriously, Trip took much effort in explaining not only what to do, but how to do it and why. He made sure our thumbs were properly positioned, that we had on ear plugs, that we knew that most defensive shooting happened at 5-7 feet. He explained to me how a .22 caliber can be deadly because it doesn't have the force to exit the body. I found that amazing. The videos are great! Link to comment

I did like th chance to show how great the Ruger 10-22 is as a poboys assult rifle...those 25 round buttler creek mags make it very deadly as a close range combat weapon....but you all know that!! I've told you enough times!! Link to comment

Steph, that young man of yours is going to be a heartbreaker in a couple of years. Sure sorry I wasn't there. Link to comment
Stephanie Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Thanks everyone about the kind words and compliments on my sons! I'm agreeing with you 100%!!! A momma's bragging rights! Christy, two of my five sons were there, so not sure which one you were referring to, but it could be either one, they're both so handsome - inside and out! Link to comment
