Hi Guys. Last Fri.Some fine roller men came over for a day of pigeon talk. And flew my A team and B team. The kits were a disappointment but the visit and camaraderie was great! Bob Munson sent Morris a DVD on pigeons But we all ran our mouths while it was going, and I don't think we seen or heard any of it. Well watch it again sometime and we will all duct tape our mouths shut so we can watch and enjoy it! We are all trying to get to know each other and figure out about trying to get us a fly going. Morris said we can call it the Civil war fly, North MI. against the Southern Mi guys. We sill have more to do but we should have one before long. There is enough guys it would take two days to do.My wife Lorri fixed us pike and Blue gills and all the fixings for a fine meal. It was the first time I had met Jim Snyder ,and is a very nice guy that's flew rollers since childhood. I think he is flying Bob Munson roller strain and some from Gregg Sales, And I think some from Rudy. Jim, Gregg or Bob can correct me if I'm wrong! Wouldn't be the first or last time! Here's a pic of the group L to R Kim Tappenden, Rudy Gendrikovs, Morris DeRyke, Jim Snyder, Frank Kazor Sure was a good day! Kim Tappenden, PS, Frank flys Tipplers but is building some kit boxes and going to fly rollers also and his son has some Weins and is going to fly in W/C and Fall fly soon also. So more new flyers in Southern Mi.Tapp

Thanks Tapp! I'm gonna need it. After 9 of 11 days of 25 mph winds or better, my birds look like crap the last two days! I'm off track on the feed and everything now! I tried to go straight wheat and milo 50/50 and they went to crap! NOW, I'm gonna take everybody's advive and just take what they give me and hope that I can get them back to where they were! Got two weeks!
Ralph, I'm on my way! Get the grill going and ice down some cervezas! LOL
