I plan on being there.  First event since The Taking of the Orange.  So I can ....

a) help out

b) audit and cheerlead 

c) stand around, stomp my feet and mutter "jebus, it's cold"

d) shoot  (try for one of them neat Icicle patches, tho I just finished sewing on my regular one)

e) all of the above

Taylor and I have been in touch.  I am all properly registered as an IIT for this one.   Was not sure until late Sunday  that I could attend so I had not hit him up for details.

f)  Perhaps, all but 'c' with the addition of saving America! ;)

Lookin' foward to meeting you!

Special note to all who will be there.  I brought up the weather forcast for this weekend.  It appears the most difficult condition that will have to be addressed is the wet.  The combination of wet and cold can really dampen your experience. 

Just prepare yourself and all will have a great time!

No December Blizzardseeds on the schedule so this is the last Hinckley (Minnesota for that matter) 2011 Appleseed.

Forget about that left-over turkey leg and pumpkin pie...COME OUT TO OUR APPLESEED AND BRING SOME FRIENDS.
Honoring the memory of Adonijah Taylor (1730-1810) my Grandfather seven generations back, Deerfield MA Militiaman and Patriot, who answered the alarm on April 19, 1775 and along with his six sons served in the War of the Revolution.

I've never seen a Thanksgiving where there was a turkey leg or even a crumb of pie left... #)
But if it's there, no need to forget about it!  Bring it with! ^-^  Gotta feed all those friends!

My son and I will be there just on Sunday. Can't do the whole thing, unfortunately.

I'll be heading Nort' as soon as my winter firewood supply is delivered tomorrow (hopefully in the morning).  If it's not delivered until afternoon, then I'll see ya'll Sunday!

I'm bringing a half-dozen Laser NPOA Concept Demonstrators (LNCD's) that should work at 25m.  If they prove useful I will build more.   ..:..   ..:..   ..:..

Hey Cooper,
just letting you know: hope you don't mind, I borrowed your sheeple pic, and a couple of your quotes. I'm working on rebuilding my Facebook page-I was about to delete that time suck, but now that I have Appleseed, I have something useful to share! @@)

I'm not feeling well enough to get over there today. I guess I'll have to wait until March (or so). Too many fall allergy problems lately. I was really hoping for snow cover by now. <sigh>

I hope everyone has a fun day up at Hinckley  :)  The weather forecast looks nice for today.  O0

We missed you!!

Another time...

Plenty cold today, but dry and the wind was cruel but not torturous.
