I am back home after another great Appleseed weekend spent with real Americans.  Although we were a small group, we made up for it in character and the spirit of Liberty.
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

The star shoot.  Boys vs girls.



Shoot like a girl, if you can!



The winners (girls ) won first place.  A laminated Bill of Rights pocket card.  Because if you do not know your rights, they are easy to take away O0

Big fun on this temperate weekend!


Coly gives us some history...


... and the shooters soak it up


Everyone's seated position has to work with their physique


... and we get a Riflewoman who knows very well what she is about! 
Way to go, Kristi!  A proud Stonn presents the patch.

Anika proves that what she's learned on a new Ruger transfers to an old Springfield, as her sister Eleanor looks on (apologies if I've butchered the names)




Hope this weekend relaxed you for finals!
