First Update – 10:32pm on Thursday, Sept 2
I arrived at in Austin late afternoon and met Frank Addington, Jr. at the Crowne Royal Hotel. After checking into my room Frank and I drove out to the Travis County Expo Center (7311 Decker Lane) where the Southern National Archery Festival is taking place this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
We met the events originators Dennis Sissell and Dennis Minks at the big Expo center. They were both good guys and we visited. This is the set up night before the big event begins, although there were people shooting on the range this afternoon. Understandably, they were very busy, people regularly came up and asked questions or reported in.
After meeting and visiting with Dennis and Dennis there wasn’t anything else for Frank and I to do. So we drove over to I-35 and ate dinner at Papasitas. If you’ve ever been to one of these mexican restaurants you know the food is super.
And just for grins here is a pic of Frank Addington Jr. and me at Papasitas.
When I saw quail on the menu I shut it and ordered the quail. Good stuff.
Friday look for pics and updates from the festival. More about the SouthernNationalArcheryFestival.com
