Another great weekend in Miamisburg! We may have started with just a little rain on Sat. but it cleared out and we received the usual dose of hot and humid so typical for this time of year.  It was great to have Carlton and Doug with us for Sat and Sun. To say they received plenty of 1 on 1 would be an understatement, hope we didn't hound you guys too much.

Sunday came and we knew it was gonna be a hot one when the instructors were simply standing around and started to sweat at 7am. We were rejoined by Doug and Carlton, and then suprised when 3 walk-ons showed up. Fearing they were too late we were more than happy to get Josie, Doug, and Susan on the line after the redcoat target. From there we did a little ball and dummy, and on to the AQT. While we didn't forge any rifleman this weekend I think we all learned a little something and I know I saw some great improvement in all of those on the line.

Cooper thank you so much for coming all the way from Minn. to help out you proved the often repeated phrase that there are no bad Appleseeders. It was a great time hanging out with you on the line, and around the fire, I love the music too. Jeep I was glad you were able to make it, and Louie it was a pleasure as always. Jeff, thanks for coming up, I look forward to working more with you.

All in all another fun Miamisburg Appleseed!

Carlton and John, it was a pleasure, hope to see you both on the trail.
Susan and Josie, keep on those skills, you're both riflewomen in the rough. John, you'll be there soon.

Dryfire, you make it all look so easy.

Cooper and Jackie, thanks for coming down to help. I loved your History (Cooper- NOT Jackie).

Jeep - watch the chicken wings...
Jeff, nice meeting you too.
All in all it was a wonderful Appleseed.
