Thanks Guys! Didn't think I would make it this far.

Our Daughter talked me into getting the old Jeep warmed up and taking everyone on a trip to the mountains yesterday, along with some fried chicken , potato salad and German Chocolate cake.

Had a great day, even after getting "Ol' Fliver" stuck in the snow. Remembered how much "fun" it is to lay on my stomach in 2 feet of frozen snow digging. Fortunately I had a big strong young guy to help out.

I took several handguns, including a 1918 Artillery with repro stock. Our Daughter's Beau, and my soon to be Son in Law (she couldn't have found anyone better) Jordan had never fired a Luger before. I handed him the Artillery with a box of ammo and let him go. I doubt I would have had more fun shooting it myself. He didn't stop grinning through the entire 50 rounds. After he was out of ammo , I asked him what he thought. All he said was "WOW"!

Thanks again.. I had a great one!

Ron

That sounds like a fantastic day(well except for the getting stuck in the snow part). Many more!!
