Well, I had a nice suprise this weekend. Now ladies, don't get all jealous, but I got to meet Obediah! He was out in Arizona visiting and made a point to come out to Goldfield Ghost Town, see a gunfight and meet the family. I didn't have the camera, but I think that he got a few picks, so I look forward to seeing them.
Obi, it was a real pleasure meeting you and your gang. I hope that if you make it out here again, we can get more time to visit.

Caitlin,
I'm just upset that you didn't drag him into a mudpit and make all of us girls proud.  Just kidding!!! I am glad that y'all were able to get together. Looking forward to seeing the pics of y'all out on the old west.
Love,
Kay |

I think meet-ups with MohicanLand friends are just the BEST!!!
Obi, isn't Caitlin just a sweet dear gal? She brought her Jeff to the first gathering I attended (the second one, it was her second one gathering I believe - Caitlin was one of the original gatherers) and the video camera never left the boy's hand! The next gathering - they are married and made the trek for a quick gathering visit even with Caitlin in a the delicate situation of being with child! It was good as always to see them again! It's nice to still have her around...on the forum. We'll take her anyway we can get her! I hope your pics turn out Obediah!

That's great that you met Obes Caitlin No "mud-pit" around that's just too bad. Should have "improvised" and used whatever was nearby. He sure does love to 'rassle
Goldfield Ghost Town sounds like my kind of place. Nothing like seeing a guy dressed up as a "cowboy" toting guns. Used to love going to "Buckskin Joes" out in Colorado when we lived there. Gunfights and hangings on a daily basis
Hope to get to Arizona some day and if we do will be sure and visit the Ghost Town.
Can't wait to hear Obi's version of your meeting and see the pics |

Just to make certain ones here happy, yes, Caitlin & I did discuss mudpits, but only in passing. Let's face it, it's just a tad dry for a mudpit in Arizona!
Caitlin, if your hubby ever gives you any grief, just let me know. I'll stand on a table & we'll have any eye-to-eye talk!
Hey, I was really happy to meet you & your family, Caitlin...and I know we'll meet again, even though it may be it NC.
We almost missed the last gunfight of the day, just barely made it there. Afterward, I asked one of those cowpokes if she was there; he pointed out Windy Bill, immediately ran & got her -- everyone knew who I was! I had forgotten what a great group of people re-enactors (of any stripe) are! I only wish we'd had more time...
BTW, I only ended up with one (1) picture.  It's in my photo album. |

Yes, mudpits were discussed in passing. If he would have visited a week earlier it may have been a possibility with the little rain we had. Lots of dirt out here, you know.
What a great picture! Thanks, Obi! And yes, I told my husband he had to take care. Wish we had more time too...
GG...  Thanks for the kind words... you're such the sweetie. Yup, my Jeff did have a grip on that video camera, didn't he? Alas, I only hope he will again!  |
