Cheers

Howdy all... just checking in from NorCal.
what part of Nor Cal are you in Siglethink?
NorCal22Gal
Redding, CA
Davis, CA (also known as the Peoples' Republic of Davis ;-)
Welcome....
For some reason in AS we consider Davis Central CA. Basically Fresno to Sacramento is Central CA, and The Redding/Chico/Red bluff area is Norcal.
It is not what we normally think of Norcal and SOcal, but it works for coordinating people.
Oh and Welcome
Ryan
ryan...lots of folks in the san fran/bay area that think they are in Northern Cal....

Hello all to you California Appleseeders !

Just thought I'd check here's the URL:

Very good show !
Used to be in Cali, now in East Texas, but still Appleseeding here or there !
Bless you one & all, Texas Minuteman :---

To our many friends in CA....Illinois says "Hey". Keep up the fine work y'all are doing. It is an inspiration to the rest of the country!! O0

Hi Norcal 22 Gal,
I know, but since I spent my summers up in Trinity county as a Kid, I actually agree with how we split up CA in AS. The Redding area is very different then the San Fransisco bay area. THe culture, pace of life and basic outlook is different in the Bay Area.
Ryan
Back to work...
EEEEL!!! Waaaaaaazzzzzuuup, brother! Glad you could make it.
I miss you already, man!
By the way, thanks for setting my shooter Blackall straight.... That was classic! wish I got that on video!!! :--- ~~:)

Great ! Wasn't sure if there were different shows for different regions or states.
Carry on...... :sos:
Cal 7.62 reporting, just called SleepsinProne and told him to get online. @@)
Gonna give Moose a call and get him online too. So good to see everyone @ the IBC. Wish I could've stayed.
Steve.
Camljr where were you man, wanted to hear you on the radio...
I don't do radio.... (and everything like that....) :cool2:
Great, we get DHF and we get to listen to Scout and Fred lecture him... and then we sail straight into the wall...
Appleseed the gang that couldn't shoot straight.
But enough of that, is everyone signed up for an April 19 shoot?
Why not?
Cheers
Crusty
PS I am on a shoot its just not official yet... preemptive defense there...
I'm signed up woooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooooooo
me too!!!!

But how many shooters have you got pre-registered.
Not picking on you SS, just making a point, if you look at the pre-regs for Cali numbers are low, we need a concerted effort to get this up. Get the new Tri-fold handouts and get out to every gun shop, range, etc, etc., and get shooters to these shoots.
Boxes of tri-folds have been distributed strategically to people around the state. If you can't meet up and get it from them PM me and I'll mail you a box.
Cheers
Phil
I have some.
I am working Angeles on the weekends as well as visiting the gun stores in this area.
I know numbers are low, I see them on eventbrite. As of yesterday, there are only 6 people signed up at Piru for April.
I want to sign up... putting in some extra hours to try and make it happen. Also got some interest at the CalExpo gun show week before last. I don't know if anyone signed up though.
Hey All,
Checking in.... and still exhausted from the IBC.
BaldDrgn says to say hello! he just texted from the range - got caught in a meeting.
All instructors and IITs please make sure you respond to the PM for the instructor's contact info list. If you didn't receive the PM send me a PM and I will let you know what info I need.

I have noticed that also. Low Numbers. I see 0 for PIRU next weekend. ???
Jacques, Marpat Whittemore and Pippi,
Hope to see you guys on the trail soon!

artkat2 I am sure we will see you soon.
We are hoping to pop in at the piru appleseed and have at least two friends going. The signed up by mail and therefore have not been counted yet.

Hey. Always good to hear from you Andy.
The IBC went really well this last weekend.
On board. Santa Rosa, CA
All men die. Not every man truly lives.
All the "pre-amble" sounded like it was shaping up for a great weekend, I was even off early on Friday thinking of ditching everything and showing up...It was really hard not to!

Hey all,
my apologies....got sacked between flat tires on one of the kids cars, then doing the grandkid thing for awhile....
Should have been here...I think they conspire against me at times..... !@#) &)
The IBC was too much fun......great folks, lovely weather, green hills, gentle breezes, and sunny lines.....besides the happy cows mooing in the distance, I can't think of anything that would have made it better....'cept maybe for everyone here to have been there....... ^-^ O0
Our group is beyond good....we are approaching "awesomeness"......... O0 :o ;D

That was a great Rifleman Radio Show, until it cut out at 1900 hours. Dr. Fischer is an interesting and articulate man. Hope we can get him back at some point.
I've decidied to raid the California board by signing in...lol.

Ahem, I'm in Santa Rosa. That ain't Southern Cal and there's only two to choices. ;) Good to meet you all.
Dinky,
Welcome to the CA board.
Great 2 "see" you Dinky. I still think about your "NPOA drill from hell" >:D or whatever the heck you called it O0. That RBC was such a fun week. I hope your feeling better these days.

Hey there Civilian1! I haven't heard from you in a while. Have you been able to make it to a Chabot Appleseed? How about Ron at Circle S? Is he getting any closer with that berm?

i have used a slightly easier version at many appleseeds since then ~~:)... it's a lot of fun and a good test of cadence and NPOA :---
Hey Cal, glad to know the drill left a lasting impression. LOL. I'm doing good these days, as I'm almost at 80% health wise, and getting better each passing day. And while that may not seem like a good number to some, consider that I was at about 2% when I was out there with you all last year (I had only been standing up on two feet one week before I showed up). :o Trust me, it's a HUGE difference!
So yep, I'm doing good!
Dinky
In that case, "welcome back"

Well if you were so amazing at 2% I'm looking forward to finding out what 80% is.
Hey Bob! GREAT to hear from you. I've not been to Chabot yet but I have been to Circle S several times and it looks pretty slow going over there. Ron's keeping busy with routine stuff but I'll get a more accurate report back to you soon. I do have a some friends who frequent Chabot so I'll have to coordinate an Appleseed with them since they are regulars. Keep up the good work and thanks for all you do! - c1

Yeah, sometimes fun stuff just "erupts" outa me.....
With NewMOe, as we were walking back from the target line on one of those "balmy Corona AS's" (roughly 108 deg's), he mentioned feeling "pain"......
Since he obviously needed cheering up, I reminded him that "pain is weakness, leaving the body..."
He used that for most of a year.... O0 ;)
Dinky, ya know, it's good to hear from ya, but it would have been nice if you had mentioned -where- exactly, in Ohio you hail from....if I'm not mistaken, your place isn't all that far from our "family farms" out in Pickaway Cty........and we had lots of farms out there...... ::) :o
Glad to hear you're feeling & doing better.....it'd be fun having you guys out here again sometime......maybe you can get to go someplace a little more scenic....... ^-^ ;D
Be good now! :o ;D
