The annual trek to San Antonio for the Cowboys for Heroes event was a very special time this year. With nearly 20 cowboys, cooks, reactors, Patriot Guards & etc. were coming from all over North Texas. Gail & I left Corsicana @ 4:30 & had a pleasant drive arriving around 11:00 followed by the rest of the team. We picked out a spot Big enough for 1298 Wagon Randy May’s Wagon & BBQ Smoker, right by the stage, together our set up was pretty impressive sight.
The Friday evening the Meal was provided by Randy’s 4C Wagon & BBQ & Crew. The brisket & ribs were great, and the other 10 wagons thought so too.
Sat Morning early was fast & furious, with the weather very pleasant this year. It was fun working with some new additions to share the work load.
This year we served beef tips and gravy, biscuits, mashed tatters, beans, 2 kinds of cobbler, and some of the best bread pudding ever made in a dutch oven. We served all we had and ran out of food, so I guess it was good? OH! And I didn’t see any bodies lying around on the ground. Whew! That is always a good sign.
After loading up sat evening we went to a popular eating spot and had a good time for the 3 F’s (Food Friends & Fellowship).
The trip home Sunday was pleasant & all arrived home safely.
The key Fobs presented to all the Military from 4C’s & 1298 were really a hit.

Thought I would share this here, this is an e-mail that we received from the from Cowboys for Heroes in San Antonio. The pictures have been loaded to the event gallery.
Hello, my name is Julianna G. I was at the Cowboys for Heroes event today at Fort Sam Houston. One of the gentlemen who was at your camp spent a lot of time showing my son how to sling a gun. I took lots of pictures and I thought that he might like to see some of them, especially the smile on Bailey’s face when he finally got it! I really appreciate you all coming out today and the time that the one man spent with my son. It is a memory that Bailey will cherish.
I have one more picture of yet another gentleman that was at your camp. He came over to the rocking-t camp where my daughter was cooking with the team there, He played a couple of guitar songs and had such a wonderful voice. I thought he might like the picture I took of him playing for us.
Please pass along the attached pictures for me. Thanks so much.
Regards
Julianna G.
