Margret Unit 1983 (Story added 2-19-2009)
« on: February 12, 2009, 01:39:43 PM »
I hope the pictures get on there.  This is a picture of my dad and grandpa which they both drew margret tags in 1983 and then again in 1986 and I will get those pictures scaned and put on here.  Just thought you guys might like to take a look.

I don't know much to the story but I belive 1983 was the first year they allowed permits in the margret unit.  They had met some other people who had permits also and that was the result of opening morning.

One of these years. 12 years and counting. Nice load of Roosies there.

Interesting how they were all 5x5 except one.

Actually now that I take a closer look appears they are all 5x5's.

Nice bunch of bulls regardless, thanks for posting. Now I know why I have been applying for so long.

I will try to get my dad on here to let him tell the story. I was only 6 when they had drawn those tags and I always remember the pictures. Just for the simple fact I dont think any of us will see that.
