I couldn't get there any sooner than today, or stay any later than tonight, but we had a great time!! Kid on a Pony absolutely OWNED that venue, and our hosts Dave and Deb are just wonderful, generous, people. In fact, Everyone there have "hearts as big as Texas" Do not miss this get together next year!!
Sorry about the lousy camera phone pic. I know there will be better pics in the "events" section later. |

Did I mention there were some REALLY nice guiters there??? |

Location: Fort Worth, Texas | I guess I'll declare the weekend a success. I'm pretty worn out after driving back home this afternoon (in time to get to our 5 year old's class picnic!) Between the OFC folks that made it and our friends from the Kerrville Folk Festival we had a decent turn out. I think everybody enjoyed Old Magnolia Town, and the music was almost non-stop. Special thanks to Mike Stephens, our area Ovation rep, he brought several guitars for us to try out. I'll need to get my old fashioned film developed to get my pics posted. Others should have some up soon (Craig?)...
Thanks to those from the OFC that made it:
George Dubick, Denton, TX.
Craig Martin, Converse, TX.
Tom Tennant, Keller, TX.
Fred Williams, South Orange County, CA.
and me Paul Wagner, Fort Worth, TX.

Location: Orange County, California | We all owe Paul and his family a HUGE debt of gratitude!! The event was wonderful. Even the "outsiders" enjoyed all the guiters. I think we may even convert Mark. at least Patrick was playing a Takamine 12 string. |

And yes Paul, it was a success! :) |

Location: Converse, Texas | GREAT weekend Paul! Hats off to Deb and Dave! I think they enjoyed themselves too! I;ve got 120 pictures, so it may take me awhile to load them up!
It was great meeting George (and Tommie), Tom and Fred. Of course, I knew Paul from last year and weve gotten together a few times since. This is going to be a GREAT annual event! |

And as you can see from the smiles on everyone's faces how much fun it was to get these shots.
That is me and my bandmates: Kid On A Pony
Somewhere there's a shot of us all playing Ovation's that were brought up!

Location: Converse, Texas | It is an Elite T with a special paint job. The Ovation rep (Mike Stevens) has it. Pictured here is his wife Michelle.
She can hold her own, by the way.
Here's a Cobalt Blue Adamas Millennium, also belonging to Michelle. The color just seemed so deep in this model, and I'd say it ranks as one of the best Adamii we had this weekend.
