Recon82 just grabbed a big new bucket to help us bail the ship! He earned his new green hat this past weekend in Old Fort, North Carolina. Recon82 and the rest of his family have been crisscrossing the state (and beyond!) to contribute to Project Appleseed in the past few years. The photo below shows just one of many times when three generations are all moving the mission forward together.

Congratulations and thank you to Recon82 for stepping up as a shoot boss! We'll see you on the firing line soon enough.

Hey Recon - CONGRATS!!!  I know this is very well deserved!  I can't wait to work with you again!

CONGRATS - CONGRATS - CONGRATS!!!!!
It's not about perfection -- it's about progress!!

I LOVE this stuff!

"Perhaps you and I have lived with this miracle too long to be properly appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again" Ronald Reagan
