NE OHIO BUNCH Spring 2025 Meeting

[MaxKimber]

This year I will put out a bowl for food donations if someone didn’t bring something to share.

This option is starting to look better and better...

I have finished packing my guns for Saturday. These include a few top breaks, a 1951 pre 10, and some later models including a Rossi .44 spl. For lunch I will have some chili. Be there bright and early. I will have grips for Denny too.

Sorry gang, looks like I'm gonna need a rain check. Something has come up which will prevent me from attending. Hope it's a good turnout and good show. See you all at the next one, Bob.

Bob ...sorry to hear you will not be able to attend...I always look forward to seeing you and your fine collections...Roger

Yeah Bob, gonna miss you tomorrow. Got the small stuff packed, just need to get the guns out. Eric and Pete are at Nino’s right now by Roger’s recommendation years ago. They just sat down, glad they made it safely. Larry

 

[BAM-BAM]

Same here, guns in the morning.

 

[oldman10mm]

Nap time, work on the pictures this evening.

Counted 26 people and again believe there were more there. Some people came in with kids or relatives that didn’t sign in. Saw some new faces and some didn’t come back from the fall bunch. Berea gun show was today which could have hurt us some.

Was great to see a few from the past attend again. Overall fun day, lot of guns displayed. Denny’s pictures will follow soon, Larry

 

[Jebus35745]

Denny, are you OK? Usually post the pictures late evening. Hope everything is good.

We took in 215.00 cash and we spent 58.00 for the chicken & JoJo’s total around 273.00. Will split the 215.00 giving 115.00 to the forum and 100.00 to the club.

Thinking, some of the locals didn’t come but things always come up when the date for the bunch is picked. Have a great Sunday, Larry

The nap turned out to be a nice long sleep.
Maybe the members have gotten spoiled by putting the pics up so quickly/soon.
There's 28 pics to be put up.

Pictures are very time consuming, no I don't mind doing it as I'm a picture/photoshop person.
Each pic is put in Photoshop, rotated to correct view as what should be vertical/horizontal is proper, apply a perspective filter to correct for angled walls/tables, then cropped to get rid of unwanted/not needed parts of pic, then bring some brightness into the dark areas, then an overall brightness/darkness for a good looking pic.
Then all the processed pics are batch processed to bring them to the same digital size, then texts added to pictures for date, sequence, sometimes time and notes.
Then put in the thread.

While we are patiently waiting for pics, I will post a couple pics from this morning. We went to walk our 2 miles starting in Valley View and walk a mile up to Independence. Went to park on Stone rd and a big crowd was at the rail road tracks.

That means the Steam Engine will be coming around the bend past us. That’s right, “Steam in the Valley” is this weekend. Got a couple pics to share, it’s neat to see the train in motion.

Next weekend is also Steam in the Valley, if interested check the schedule and take the Kids, grandkids or yourself to see it. In Brecksville Reservation the train stops in a picnic area so you can get a close up and ask questions to the staff.

Guess I was kinda close to the tracks. Ended up being a great weekend for me, Larry
