Three Birthdays

Well Yesterday was Melanies (my youngest of three daughters) birthday. She was 3. We always said she was born on tax day eve (April 14th) and this year it was Easter eve also. My father in law's birthday was a month ago in March as was my own. We three got together yesterday to do a gift swap. I had bought my father in a law a MINTY and I mean the best condition 1938 Hardshell to go with his Minty S/42 1938 dated Luger. He was speechless! That was great! But I was speechless also. He presented me with a very excellent condition K-22 Smith and Wesson Revolver (I had been sloobering over it) 4" Barrel and about 96% condition. I will take it into the mountains this September and hunt Dusky (or Blue ) Grouse with it!

Wanted to shoot it today, but we have to travel to Santa Fe for easter egg hunts with my daughters cousin. Ted

Happy Birthdays all around... enjoy that K-22, I had one about 26 years ago, and it was a very fine weapon, good bablance and very accurate (it is a target pistol after all).
