My first event as an IIT was eye opening!  Bob you run such a smooth Appleseed, not that I know any other kind but seeing the instruction from the other side of the line was very cool.  I am excited to be part of the team!

Proud of everyone that I had the pleasure to work with.  Many people were displaying the Rifleman's Persistence, putting up with showers of hot brass (Chris had burn marks on the inside of his support elbow, but he didn't let that stop his focus), punishing recoil (Gerold with shooting .270 Winchester in a 5 pound hunting rifle), Scopes too far back, loaner rifles people were unfamiliar with.  These Appleseeders powered through!

And... I am SORE.  I didn't realize that I'd be more sore as an instructor than I was as a student.  8 hours of squats and lunges put a hurtin' on my legs for sure.

It was great to see so many dads, bringing so many kids, to learn the heritage of our great nation, it would warm the heart of any American.  I can't wait to bring my own kids.
