This is LONG overdue but life and work has delayed this post.


So Jim Brrotherton and his sister, Jim Vaughn and myself met at Outback Steak House in Warrenton, VA just before Hungry Mother this year.




While we were waiting for Jim Vaugn to show up and a table he gave me this coolest ever safety vest.

It all started months before when he PM'd me asking if I could have something with a name on it, would it be Gwen or Shoganai.

This is what he had made for me.















Is that not TOTALLY AWESOME!!!

Thank you so very, very much Jim!!!

That IS the coolest safety vest I've seen. Personal touches are hard to beat and when it's a gift.............so much more so.

No thanks necessary Gwen, your the greatest and I'm so happy you like it. @drikko, if I could have found one in hot pink, would have bought it, @Ted, also sorry we never hooked up, at least gives us something to keep shooting for.

Totally AWESOME Shogs Wink Wink

I never liked the safety vests much but that one has converted me, looks TOO GOOD.

We got sun here after SO much rain, so I am slipping the chain Wink

All the very best and safety first (well you know what I mean)
