The Borderline Bad Girls have gifted us something different. Question remains: Can WE
deliver? Remains to be seen... Maybe not the same old...Get up, may snow, so...
Just wonder what they could do in spring.....

I must say I think the "Bad Girls" match was a great idea and very enjoyable!

Sorry for the loss. Last Kiss and I knew him since he was six or seven.
Fondly remember him hanging out with us when we shot long range.
Our thoughts are with Double Barrel and family.

Goodbye Twenty-one, don't let the door hit your @$$
Have to say it's not been a blast
Didn't think you could be worse than Twenty
But you got it done and it's a pity
Loss and sorrow far too much to name
Our lives will never again be the same
I've got my doubts about Twenty-two
Hope things get much better for me and you

Good shooter, fine man, and a good cowboy. I will miss talking to him.

There are a lot of things I would like to resolve to do right now, i.e., travel, go to concerts, go to a theatre, and much more.
Probably not a good idea.....
So, I'll take a look at my Cowboy shooting.
My first three years I shot mostly Duelist and Classic Cowboy. For about the next eight years I mostly shot Gunfighter. Then,
the last seven or so, Outlaw. I like to shoot clean when I can, and I like to place well when I can, however, I think I would
resolve to try just to enjoy the comradery we have left to us, and have fun. More like Loose Cinch. Meaning visit other categories,
shoot guns I usually don't, Long Gulch will agree I don't shoot enough black powder. Wear a lot of my clothes that are not black...
Well, that might be going too far.
I would desire to include shooting many more matches, but shortages still exist and many more other factors.

PS- If you have resolutions of any kind, post here so we can enjoy and have conversation.....

Hope for a good outcome. Keep us posted.

Good thoughts their way.

I have been dead airspace here for a long time, It's hard to deliver during a plague...
It will be bittersweet, but how about The Thrilling Days of Yesteryear:
I'll start with how much I miss Possum Trot! Wild times..... I think of it often.
Add in how it was and used to be When L.K. and I owned a cabin a few years at Hooten Old Town. Adventures there.....
Not to mention, I think it was our second year in the game we shot 49 of 52 weekends that year. How I long for THAT.
Not having my partner with me every time causes me grief.
The current state of things cramps my style. I want freedom like we used to know.
What is left for the game, I don't know... For all of us, I don't know...
Hell, there used to be a party connected to everything.
Many friends have been lost, hard to stay in the path.
Tell your tales, let's talk.

PS- Last Kiss and I have been married 27 years, Aug. 6th.  Some would say, "WOW! That's great." Others would say, " Pffsstt, that's nothing!"
PS- My focus is gone, last Rangers 1st stage proves that. I want it back.

What Charly said, (Even the rutting...)
Would love to hear some reports from probably the only EOT east of the Mississippi.

Fast Harley- Outlaw
Last Kiss- Lady Gunfighter
Posse with other Outlaw/Gunfighter types.....

Well.....I was in hopes that this being the last one it would incite people to tell past TMM experiences.
I'll tell a simple one I thought of and see if it gets any action.
Many, many years ago there was an old stage building well downrange. It was decided that it would be torn down, so:
If memory serves, targets were put behind the widow openings and were shot during the match through the wood under
the window. Also, if memory serves, we were invited after the match to shoot whatever at the remains of the building.
On that part I could be thinking of somewhere else, we did a good bit of that sort of thing back then. Some Old Timer
tell me if I'm right, I was only a kid back then.
F.H.

I don't like to hear "The Last One," of anything: beverages, steaks, hamburgers, pieces of pecan pie, etc.
Cowboy Venues...but it is what it is. Last Kiss and I first shot this venue in '04, and have some good memories.
As funny as the whole chicken thing was, and also the bows and arrows, knives, and tomahawks that Cherokee
Maddog wrote, as was said I see there being a large turnout, so fast might possibly be better. Maybe a throw-
back or two...
I plan to be there, hopefully.

Mosquitos don't usually bother me as much as others, and that's what started this thinking.
They were around me in clouds working outside today. After some thought there were at least
two things I hated worse.....
F.H.

I love nature and the outdoors, however, here is my list of least favorite creatures:
1. Brown shield bugs, a.k.a, stink bugs.
2. Ticks. (any.)
3. Mosquitos.
4. Fire ants.
In that order.
What are yours?
