I will see you folks on Saturday if you are going to make Cloverdale.  I am going as a shooter but if my assistance is needed for history or sight carding or whatever I will have my hat in the truck!   :---

So long as nothing goes wrong on my trip back from CA on Friday, me and the kidlets will stop by to visit.  I will bring the cricket just in case an AQT presents itself...   ;D

What a nation has done, a nation can aspire to.
Dr. Jerry Pournelle

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

I did not get any centerfire loaded for the day, but I will have my 22 and plan to shoot it, a lot. SPQR will be getting trigger time and I've made statements I need to defend.

It sounds like Cloverdale is in need of a Blue Hat to check in all those instructors shooters.  Funny, I have to be in Indy that afternoon for JayPea's graduation...and I happen to need some practice with irons.  I could spend the morning shooting some squares...   8)

Rumors of bacon at Cloverdale tend to have this effect.  :cool2:

Do we need to bring some cash to help with lunch supplies?  And for the big question, are Bacon and Oreos involved?  ;)

Steve - I can't remember the exact cost of lunch, but it's somewhere between $6 and $7 a person.  And it's always good.  I can guarantee that I've had some desserts that are even BETTER than Oreos.  I know, right?  And bacon...well, I'm sure ATM will make sure bacon makes an appearance for Riflemen.   O0

Are you bringing the rest of the family this time, or are they waiting for HCFG in June?

Unfortunately it will just be me.  My daughter decided to spend the night at her aunt's house to play with a much beloved younger niece.  The whole gang will be coming out in June.

I'm very excited for this weekend and to get to meet all the people that I've been seeing posts from.

Just got DaveD's blessing to attend as a shooter ^:)^ 
 
As suggested to me by SPQR, I've removed the scope riser from my AR and need to re-zero.   Forest and trees being what they are, I never considered it was causing my sighting problems.  Thank you, Sir.   

See you all on Saturday  :)

I guess a whole bag of crazies will be there shooting Redcoats in the AM. Hope to see new and familier faces there.
Techres- this is the day that you succeed!

Yeah, Oreos are optional - but the meat candy is a necessity of life...

Thanks to all of the instructors for putting on such a great event.  I did learn a LOT yesterday.  Both about our Heritage and how to master Rifleman Skills.  Sorry I wasn't able to back up your instructions on the paper.  Too many things going on right now, just couldn't get into the grove yesterday.  I will be back and I will earn the rifleman patch.  I have the knowledge, just need to put it all together on every shot  8)

Thanks
John
