VERBATIM
Just arrived home from the N C PATCON and must say I enjoyed the use of my own bathroom and a hot shower. As always my thanks to Brock for being the perfect host and allowing us all to meet at Dixieland. The peacock was as active as ever and looking at himself in the bright finish of one of the newly washed and polished cars thought he was seeing another male and attacked the car as is his nature but other than that the peacock and the patriots again coexisted for the semiannual gathering.
There were more families this time than before and that meant more children running around and playing. These children all of whom I believe are home schooled proved again that we have a new generation of polite patriots on the way. As for the rest of the eclectic group of patriots, IIIpers and militia members ideas were exchanged and while there was not always 100% agreement new alliances and friendships were forged and common ground found.
My thanks as well to all the speakers Sam and Sam, Pete and of course John Ainsworth who is always ready to provide hardy debate.
The raffle was as always well received and I came home basically empty handed as usual with more than a fair share of the prizes headed north with our Yankee friends in attendance although our own Watchful did end up winning two of the major prizes a 1000rds of green tip 556 and a tactical Remington 870 which I believe he immediately donated to the Salvation Army.
Again my thanks go out to Brock for without his hospitality and organization these events would never take place. If you attended this time my thanks to you as well for taking the time to participate. If you have never attended try to do so for the fall event. If you have attended before but couldn't make it this time you were missed and we would like to see this fall as well. It is time for avordvet to attend again for his pyrotechnic skills are but a distant memory but still spoken of with admiration around the campfire at night.
