Just seeing this for a Long time....
@Geezer is On The Way..returning for a visit.....I am looking forward to seeing my friend again.
This place of "ours" [CFF Members] is forever changed....it will Not go on much longer...If you were thinking of a visit...Now Is The Time......The End Draweth Nye......My Soul Is Wounded, Not To Be Healed. Come enjoy this wonderful old place with it's 300 year old oak trees. It and all like it are fast fading...One of the last bastions of the Old World Southern Genteel. Where the smell of leather, the feel of blue steel and ivory and where a friend's handshake can be a healing balm. I would like one more time to see
@Brangus
@BASIL @svtf150 @KnotRight @Ikarus1 and Jill and All the others that haven't been here in too long. I expect to see
@Jeppo and
@Gunbelt and others in the next few days. Our regulars and you know who you are, I want you to know that your friendship in the last 2 months, has kept this old man going. BUT, I Am old. I have little to impart to the faithful Alumni in the way of the gun. However, rest assured, as long as I am on this side of the river, I will be at your disposal if you even Think I can help you solve a problem. My friend
@Etruett, and my niece Samantha have been invaluable to me, even more here lately. You will see them if you visit with us while Larry is here.
Know this without doubting, before our friend
@Geezer comes back for another visit, more of us will have crossed the river. And once again those among us will think....if only....my Old Pard arrives tomorrow and leaves Monday at first daylight.....to those of you that he will be visiting with as he heads North....drink in his company....he is a fine man and.................they are growing fewer and fewer.
While you are on this thread look back and remember all The Great Times we shared Together here under THE BATTERY OAKS.
