It was a wonderful weekend in Ramseur! On Saturday we started the day with 10 adults and six kids, Sunday 12 adults and 3 kids. I am always impressed by the quality of individuals that show up for an Appleseed event and every weekend I spend at Appleseed I walk away with a renewed sense of hope.
A few pictures from the weekend:
Bobby (yes he does resemble Walter from Breaking Bad) and Tom

I'd like to say thank you to the instructors SaltyPaws, Toy, Goliath, The Kid, Hawkeye, Storm, Revere and Grathlong. If it were not for your efforts, this weekend would not have happened. I am grateful for all of you.
Congrats to Grathlong for telling the First Strike for the first time, you did a great job! Toy did the Second and Third Strike along with the Dangerous Old Men stories and did a great job. The Kid, Salty and Grathlong handled most of the instruction and demonstrations. Thanks again!
Grathlong couldn't hide while telling the First Strike! (see photo attached at bottom)
Thanks again Sadman for leading another great weekend. Huzzah!

Sadman,
Thanks to you, all the Appleseed Instructors, and fellow Patriots for all your hard work. When you can get 2 teenage girls out of bed before 6am on a weekend for lessons on history, heritage and liberty, you know you are doing something right. The payoff is the smiles (between a tear or 2) when they make hits and great conversation on the ride home. See you guys and gals soon.

JKintts,
You have a wonderful family! I hope to see you all back on the firing line again. I honestly will remember that smile up on the 500 yard line for a long time!
Many kind regards,
Sadman
