Over 3000...? lol, well you never know. I wonder if Ron ever thought it would get that big?
Just got back from the camp north of Houston (on Rendez.) Had a real good time...can't wait for the spring Pedernales weekend...had a great time last fall.
Last year the Niblett's Bluff knap-in was April 20th...but they don't have a date listed for this year yet...I'm going to try to get ahold of Ken Jones and see what's up...don't want to miss it!

Nibletts Bluff Park- is in Southwest Louisiana near Vinton (across the road from Delta Downs Racetrack). Take I-10 to Vinton and then turn north and follow the signs to Delta. Turn west onto Nibletts Bluff Road and it will take you to the park. It's right on the river...really nice place and great people. Anybody going give me a shout and I'll meet you there...I'll probably camp there at least two days, maybe three... One of the highlights of my year. Lynne

went to the knap in down in vinton yesterday. it was my first and me and my wife had a good time. they also had a civil war reenactment and that was a added bonus, cuz i love anything that involves blackpowder. meet some very nice people there and meet a couple ole boys who live near us. i couldn't hardly drag my wife out of the vendors, she had a real good time ;D the trip down there and coming home sucked cuz all of the road work. we drove all the way across the hull state and the hull state is under consturction . thats good i guess it's good to see our tax money being used,it just looks like a little planning should be used. lynne it was a pleasure to meet you. we really enjoyed our visit with you. good luck on your up coming projects and hope to see some pictures soon.
