This is probably for Chuck and/or Jimmy House...Jean Mizzell Walker has been in touch with me via email and wants to know if there will be another P.C./Sylacauga Reunion in Panama City?

I'd also like to know since we just live down the road from you guys. We're in Apalachicola and got moved in last Wednesday. This is our One Week Anniversary. It is the most Laid Back Town I've been in since I used to go fishing in Weogufka Creek and visit the Old Men Playing Checkers in the Metropolis of Weogufka in the late 50s.

We can't recapture those days but Apalachicola is a close 2nd. This town is called the FORGOTTEN COAST...THE HIDDEN COAST...and THE LOST COAST. We love it here. It's a great place to visit. There's a bunch of old stores and restaurants. It's crowded with Tourists in the Summertime. I ask the Tourists why they come here and they just say, "We like it here because it's so Laid-Back"...AMEN!!!

There is a somewhat 'semi-PC/Sylacauga' Reunion the Third weekend in May of each year. It is called the Hangout Reunion. Sylacauga is represented by several suspects, yours truly being one of them. And we always have a cookout at Cracker Waldrop's on Friday or Saturday. There are others known as Camp Helen Reunion, but those seem to be impromptu. I have mucho fun at the Hangout Reunion each year and it would be even better with more Sylacauga folks there. Just sayin'

Cubby, if I'm still reasonably alive in May of next year, I'll do my best to be at The Hangout Reunion. Reckon you can find me some ol' gal who ever even HEARD of "The Dirty Bop"? Shoot, "back then," when it came to "DAINSIN'," I was Elvis before ELVIS was Elvis!

Why heck yeah! You would be a star since you worked up the road at Camp Helen....Uh, by the way, I out B'd BB Before BB King was BB....knowwhatahmean

I'll introduce you around if you can make it...and if we wind up in Bay County Jail we will have a lawyer to bail us out (Cracker Waldrop)....

Yep, I think I know what you mean. Did you ever buy Carling Black out the back door at Little Birmingham from the cook when you were fifteen? LOL

Good stuff, Chuck...thanks. Is there any evidence now that Joe Cook's Fish Market on Tarpon Dock ever even existed? I used to get there as SOON as possible after payday at Camp Helen to order my three dozen fried oysters. Ooooooooh, those were good --- especially after sitting there in the restaurant waiting for and then watching the boats come in, then watching the guys in the fish market shuck the oysters, then drooling all over the table at the delicious odors. Oh, Lord, I did love Joe Cook's!

Lathan and all, Jimmy House and I are All In! How's Saturday 29th Sep? Let me know here how many can make it and we'll start setting things up on our end. Hard to be more specific without more firm numbers but suggestions are welcome. I've not checked on Camp Helen yet, but will if there's enough interest. If not there are other options, roadside parks, maybe a pavilion at Tyndall or other campgrounds or just a get together meal somewhere. We have some options according to tastes. Need feedback folks for this to work!

Not gonna' be 0-3 going into JH Ted! At least that's something!

WAR D-A-M-N Eagle

Chuck - Count us in... Need more details as soon as you get them

Consider y'all counted. Let's see, now that everyone that's interested has contacted me, that totals six... if all three of us bring our wives!

Seriously, there's not enough interest being shown to justify much organizing.

Jimmy and I are ready for a get-together, meal, chin-wag at the drop of a hat. I'll talk with him tonight and maybe we can scare up one or two others around here for a PC/Sylacauga day on the 29th at one of the local establishments. Seafood? Steak? or? Just let me know your pleasure and we'll accomodate.
