This is not just for oldfarts

Retired old farts (of which I am One) often get together with others of the same on a regular basis for lunch, so I thought maybe that would work here (shoot first eat later) for a regular weekly meetup. It would not be just for retired oldfarts (of which I am One), but us old guys and gals, if there are enough, could form a core group. I've said below spring summer and fall, but it could turn into late spring and early fall only, all depends on what the core group determine.

What: Retired oldfarts warm weather weekly street shooting get together (young whipper snappers welcome to come to join)
When: Midweek, day to be determined, spring, summer, fall, weekly event
Time: Midday, time to be determined probably same time every week
Where: To be determined, after the first one those attending will perhaps determine the following weeks location
Bring: Well Dah! a pad and pencil to draw with :lol: , .......and a camera.

whats the "boundary" to be considered an "old fart"? because I am at the age where half of whom I know says I'm still young and half of them says I am already an "old fart"... :)
