Good job and thanks for thinking of me & appleseed.  Where were you when you caught yourself "at the range"?

Monday morning with my first cup of coffee!

My son said he was at "the range" when Mom gave him a cup of hot tea yesterday!  He too has that memory stamped in his mind.   O0

Thanks!

My wife wanted to know why I was sitting at the kitchen table slowly clicking a pen and smiling. . .

Instructors - many thanks to all of you for a great weekend. Even though I'm still a cook (although I'm a very good cook, by the way) I learned a lot, and improved a great deal. I'll be back to keep working on it and get that Rifleman patch!

Gentlemen, it was an honor and a privilege to spend the weekend with men who understand our history, the value of liberty, and have the courage to do what is necessary to protect and defend our God-given rights. I thought the volley fire on Saturday at 3 was a very poignant reminder of how much sacrifice is necessary to live free. I particularly appreciate the challenge that was issued to everyone at the end of the weekend to think and decide what measure of sacrifice we're willing to give to maintain those liberties and protect them for the next generation. I think many of us have already made that decision - that's why were were at Appleseed.

Thanks for a great weekend and excellent training - see you again soon.

Alright I have to admit it... I have been following through with my pen all week and I had a chicken wing with my coffee this afternoon. Thanks to Mark I won't be that far from the range.

Gentlemen, that was an awesome synchronized chicken wing...so humbling. **) **)
