As you may know, I don't drink.
While in Katy (TX) I had the opportunity to dine at restaurant called "Johnny Carino's" and while there and thinking of the Shiner's, I tried one of the infamous Shiner Bock's... good stuff (but I've had better!)

Rocket,

I guess you've been doing a lot of traveling. I'm surprised you are so long winded, I've never seen you this talkative before.

Well, the group is almost complete, I just don't know when the h--- Henry will be arriving.

Good to see ya and I hope you make A LOT of friends.

So that's your new dog. Well you have that, Dreadman and M29 have Shih Tzu's, and I have Rat Terriers. We are some bad a$$ mother - shut your mouth...

good thing they shut down Michael Vick or we would be raking in some serious cash.

Rocket, you got THAT dog into that itty-bitty dog carrier I saw???????

He must have been folded a few times.

That's one fine looking dog, though.

For those who may not know, that's Rockette behind the dog.

Oh, yeah--welcome to the forum, bro!

Sometime you ought to post a photo of that cool travel guitar you showed me. First time I've ever seen one of them!

The LP is a welcome addition to the crew, and that AJ-10 will fill the bill for camping--many thanks for the personal delivery.

Johny Carinos is one of the better places in the area where you overnighted--good choice. Their happy hour is excellent--free pizza made in a wood fired oven, etc.

Sometime someone has to tell me about the "Henry" issue--seems Strum has some sort of history there????

All y'all Fretters are in for a treat with Rocket--he''s a man of few words, but he truly speaks softly and carries a big stick! On occasion, he plays with one of my musical heroes, I'll let him fill you in on that part of his life whenever he chooses to do so--

He may not use Smilies, as he says, but you will be amazed at some of the cool visuals he can get into his posts.

All in all, a very welcome addition to TheFret, I assure you!

Dugly :cool:

I didn't see any posts from you and I assumed that either there was a big sale on Shiner beer and you were pulling funds together for a big score or a brewery burned down and you were in mourning.

Sure... no probs.

SHE... not even folded once.

Better be at the cost we put out!

For those who may not know, that's Rockette behind the dog.
That's the breeder... Rockette has never worn just one ring!

Oh, yeah--welcome to the forum, bro!
Thanks Bro!

That's Speedy (Traveler Speedster) & Mini-D (Mini Fender Deluxe):

I'd lived in FL since the early 70's and had never got down to KSC until about a couple years ago. It was pretty cool. We slept overnight at the visitor center in an indoor "campout" with my son's Cub Scout pack, right under the Saturn V they have there.

Do your dachsunds yap at every squirrel, car, person, dog, etc. that goes past your house or in your yard?

'Cause our Chiweenie sure does.

Hi LP. I had a couple Huskies years ago (Mika & Sasha). I grew up in Michigan. Holt (Lansing area)... then north to Harrison. I still have a cabin on Budd Lake in Harrison.

dachshund and huskies, it's like meeting you for the first time. See over at Washburn you couldn't mention dachshund, huskies - everything had to be Washburn.

Cool Brian! I love stuff like that, esp. shared with your kids.

Cub Scouting has been really fun for me and our Jack. It's work too, somehow this year I ended up being an assistant Scoutmaster for our den (back in the old days they had Den Mothers... sigh), but the campout/camp-in things have been a ton of fun. Every year for Veteran's Day (second Sunday in November) weekend we have a campout near the beach at Hannah Park, near Jacksonville, FL (it's too cold to swim but just right for camping that time of year here), and then in the Spring we do a "camp-in" indoor camping trip.

So far I've slept under a rocket and in the manatee exhibit at a zoo! The upcoming one we'll sleep in a decommissioned US Navy aircraft carrier!

Ha, Ha! I am doing the same. My wife gets us organized and is officially the Den Leader, but I run the meetings and events. My Dad used to be involved with Scouting and the Navy, and we toured many Navy ships (Mine Sweepers, Destroyers, the aircraft carrier Constellation) also. Though we grew up within an easy drive of Bremerton, we never did Mighty Mo' fr some reason. Rocket, sorry for getting off track in your welcome thread, but that's what it is often like here! On a sort of Rocket topic, the bulk pack of Estes rockets just arrived and we are planning our 3rd annual launch on Halloween weekend. That is always fun!
