Photos: Ron Paul's BBQ "summit" in Lake Jackson, TX, June 29, 2013

[Gage]

I was lucky enough to be invited to attend Ron Paul's annual BBQ, dubbed a summit by RealClearPolitics, where many members of the liberty movement gathered for a day of fun and relaxation. Among the notable attendees of the BBQ included Andrew Napolitano, Vince Vaughn, Glenn "Kane" Jacobs, Thomas Woods, Lew Rockwell, Gary North, and many others. Unfortunately Rand Paul was not able to make it to the event, due to his appearance in South Carolina the day before. Here are photos from the event, you can find even more photos from the event on my photostream here: http://flickr.com/gageskidmore

Special thank you to Debbie Hopper for extending the invitation for me to be able to attend this event, as well as Ron Paul and family for their kind hospitality. It was great to see many familiar faces, and take some photos of Ron Paul again for you guys.

You can find more than 170 photos from the entire event here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gageskidmore/sets/72157634418761770/

Great pics Gage!

Must suck to be Vince Vaughn. Not always, but everybody wants a picture, it seems. He looks happier in the pictures with women. What did he say in his speech, Gage, if you noticed?

Id love to hear Vince's speech.

Blast from the past:

At Vince's "Couples Retreat" premiere.

Looks like Politico based an article on my photos of Vince with Ron: http://www.politico.com/blogs/click/2013/07/vince-vaughn-and-ron-paul-hang-out-167427.html

Jesse Benton is such an ass - he's the only one there with no name tag.
