Ham Holiday 2015

The Ham Holiday occurred on July 24th and 25th, 2015

 

Here are some shots Joe - WA5FLT sent along...

Stan - N5JFQ and Mike - N5MS

 

Joe - WA5FLT, Jim - W5JCS and Wil - WB5YFX

 

Joe says "Sunday mini meeting with Jack -WA7HJV at the Olive Garden."

 

Stan - N5JFQ sent these in...

Mark Matalik, AE5DN, (friend of Aaron and I) gives a talk on DMR radios.  It's getting popular around these parts.

 

Shortly after the DMR presentation, Mike - N5MS and Joe - WA5FLT give us a happy pose. 

 

Soon it was time for lunch at Earl's Barbecue in Bricktown.  Liz, her niece and grandson Nate joined us. L-R: Liz, Mike,
(WA3OPY), Leah Matalik, Mark (both were in last year's lunch photo), Joe, 
K5HMD, his son Mike,
WA5IYI, Jim - W5JCS, and Joe - WA5FLT
.


BTW, Joe Christian said he was moving back to the Oklahoma City area soon. His preference is a 5 acre lot.

 

Since I couldn't get Nate or myself in the group shot, here's a selfie of grandson Nate (age 5) and myself.  Liz's niece politely declined.

 

After lunch, some of us stayed for the drawing.

Not pictured in my group of pics is Dan Schroeder who headed back to Stillwater.  Jim arrived shortly after Dan left, leading us to believe Jim only came down for lunch.

 

These shots were sent in by Mike - N5MS!

Stan - N5JFQ is on the left here.  Stan says "My friend in the red shirt is Eddie Southard, KF5VFD.  He's retiring from the department this month and I may have him convinced to make Dayton."

 

Mike - N5MS (on the right) says "The picture of me with two other fellows is Joe Christian - K5HMD  and Mike Christian, his son - WA5IYI."

 

Thanks to the guys for sharing their photos with us!  It looks like a good time was had!
