It was great to be back on the line for another Patriot's Weekend Appleseed at Indianhead Rifle and Pistol Club with a fine group of Wisconsin and Minnesota Patriots.  ^:)^

Thank you to our wonderful group of students Eric, Nikki, Jamie, George, Mike, Dan, Jon, TJ, Ralph, Jimmy and Deane. Some of you are old friends, some of you are new friends but the common thread is that you are all friends.  O0

I speak for all the instructors in saying that we are honored that you chose to spend your weekend with us.  :bow:

Congratulations requalifying Rifleman for the fourth (?) time and fellow Old Man (He's dangerous...I'm aspiring ;)) Dan at 226.   O0

Hang in and persist everyone else and I hope that I am the lucky instructor who gives you your first (or second)Rifleman patch.  O0

Thank you to IRPC for once again being such fantastic hosts and my never ending gratitude to my fellow instructors weaslewoods (aka Dom) and Buggin Out (aka Rob).   O0

Without you guys this event would have never happened!

See you all (with some family/friends of course!) July 16-17.  O0
