"Cities may be rebuilt, and people reduced to poverty, may acquire fresh property, But a constitution of government once changed from freedom, can never be restored, liberty once lost, is lost forever. When the people once surrendered thier share in the legislature, and their right of defending the limitations upon the government, and of resisting every encroachment upon them, they can never regain it."
John Adams

Thank you to all who came out and gave a weekend to Project Appleseed.  I had an excellent time and I hope each of you did as well.  The event feature attendees from three different states and a pair of father's and sons.  It is so great to see family at the ranges together, learning about our Liberties and Freedoms that cost our founding fathers so much.  May we continue to cherish and do all that we can to preserve them.

Huzzah!

Other Pictures of the weekend:








Notice those skies in the pictures above - next few are on the last AQT - when mother nature decided we were hot enough and need a good soaking to cool us down.  When you are shooting an AQT - you don't let a little thing like pouring rain interrupt your course of fire - we carry on.






Then Travis & Seth showing off Travis's Hits Count clear that we had to review while on the backer for fear that it would tear away like some of the AQT targets when we retrieved them.


And last, but certainly not least is Chris accepting an orange hat after requalifying.


Chris - thank you for stepping up to help out Project Appleseed!
