    Found this forum doing some research on some A5's that I have. (47 sweet sixteen, 65 & 73 light 12's from what I can tell).
    Have already learned a bunch from some of the threads I've read.
    I'll be posting some questions soon, but want to introduce myself first.
    Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season!

    Welcome sir. I'm sure you will fit right in. Kind of funny you are from Texas. I am not from Texas but have been in Houston for 26 years so guess I am kinda from here. Anyway, one of the members on here from Australia thinks I hand out scuba snacks to get new members from Texas. I'm sure he will be along in no time to harass me. Thanks for joining. If you have any concerns, please let me know.

    Southwest Idaho (formerly from the south side of Chicago) says Hi and Welcome! Great people here, with a metric ton of information. Zero drama for no extra cost!

    HaHa!
    I'll assure him no scuba snacks, but that big box of chocolates were mighty tasty!

    Howdy Scorpion,
    Thanks for the welcome. Nice to meet you. Was in Alaska 3 months ago.
    Ate at a restaurant that had some items available in Texas size portions at a lower cost. Got a kick out of that.

    Thank you for the welcome!
    Don't miss the cold or snow one bit! But do miss the open and free public lands.

    Might have been "Gwennie's Old Alaskan" in Anchorage? Those are pre-nap portions!

    Giday from Down Under . Good site here and good people with heaps of knowledge and experiences. Keep your sense of humour handy.
    Gee another new sign on from Texas... I may have to immigrate. 1 to keep my guns and 2 so I can get a set of the steak knives ranger 6 has going for his Texas membership promotion scheme.
