Who is going to be at the 2006 NCOWS Convention ?

[Delmonico]

Shhhhhh, Wymore, I was waitin' fer him to figger that out on his own.

[Yuma Kid]

All,
I'll be there all week-end long selling my past year's mistakes.  Seem like I must of bought a bunch of stuff that shrunk up during the season.  For some darn reason the stuff just don't fit no more.  Oh well, it will be a good excuse to buy some new mistakes for next year.

Y C Kid, aint that known as "recyclin'"?

See Yer doin us all a favor!

[James Hunt]

Told my wife about the fantastic shopping at the new mall, Lord I hope that town has a mall.

[Steel Horse Bailey]

If it doesn't, then I'll bet Omaha (on the other side of the river) DOES.

[James Hunt]

There ya' go, On STB's word I was right after all. Of course if her shopping expereince goes south I'm telling her that this whole shopping trip thing - the NCOWS convention just happened to be in town - was Steel Horse Bailey's idea, and then I'm sneak'n out'ta town.

[Guage Rod]

My Beautiful Bride (Fire Foot) and I hope to be there.  I am realy looking forward to checking out the fancy duds folks are wearing.  I want to go to town and see the "elephant".  I am also looking to pick up a fancy new shooting Iron of some kind I am torn between a wheel gun and a lever gun.  I know the wheel guns cost a little less but heck I might fall in lust with another gun and end up with something entirely different than expected.  I Hope the leather vendor that was there last year shows up agaiin this year.  Looking Forward to siminars, seeing folks and steppin out to see the big town. 

I can not think of the BBQ place just a block away but I want a chance to eat there again wow, If you like pork this is definately the place to go i highly recommend it.   

Vaya con Dios!

My wife and I are planning to be there during the day Saturday only.

[Steel Horse Bailey]

James Hunt, I don't mind at all if you tell her it was my idea, but if she get's cranky, I'm gonna SWEAR my name is Lone Gunman and then sneak out with you!!!

That would be "Famous Daves" sir.

[Dr. Bob]

SHB,

Won't work!  Your too good looking and nice to be mistaken for Lone Gunman!   Better tell her your Joss from California.  Atleast his is not notorious for being viscious and intempreate.

Oooooooooops!  Should be nicer to the viscious and intemperate fella I'm sharing a room with.    Guess I better learn to sleep with one eye open.

[Surly Bob]

For those folks whose spouses want to do shopping while in the area...

Mall of the Bluffs is just off of I-80 on the east side of Council Bluffs.
Another PLUS this year is the very conspicuous presense of BASS PRO's new store.  Only a short walk from the convention center and within full view!
On the west side of Omaha are Westroads and Crossroads malls - on Dodge Street off of I-680. 

But ask around while at the convention.  There are many specialty shops in the area.

[Ornery Orr]

Or send your shop happy spouses over to the TLC Woodworking booth!  I'd be happy to take an order for an Adirondack set or a porch swing or.......

IrishDave, Steel Horse Bailey and myownself should roll in from the plains of back home Indiana on Thursday afternoon or evening. I would suppose the sidewalks of Council Bluffs will be tightly rolled and neatly stacked prior to our arrival! See you all on Friday a.m.

[Bristow Kid]

What are the dates of the convention?  I am trying to wrangle the time off but I think its right after I get back from vacation so might be tough.

[Bristow Kid]

Thanks Joss.

Yeah thats gonna be tough but I might try and sneek out there Sunday.

[Steel Horse Bailey]

BK, sneeking is highly encouraged!

Hope you can make it!

[Steel Horse Bailey]

Dr. Bob, thanks for thinking of me.  You're VERY correct to beware  of roomates, etc.  Not to mention the Lone Gunman "action" figure.  I don't know what it's capable of, but the name "Chucky" comes to mind here!



And for those of y'all who may think we're serious, ... actually, LG is a pretty good pard - but DON'T tell him I said so; he'll get a MAJOR case of the Big Head!
