What an awesome day!!! Over 70 people showed up and slung lead, shot the shit and ate some grub! A BIG thanks to all that came out to make this happen, to those who provided and cooked food and to all of our members for helping make events like this happen!

I, am tired, frozen to the bone and filled with awesome memories of today.

I have a lot of pics, and I'll post them up later. Time for dinner, and maybe a nap!


**** If any of you have photos or a comment, post up!

I wish to express my gratitude to the person who made and provided the A500 target stand prize.
And to the guy who made and provided the real beef chili... yummmmm. It was a real pleasure
to hang out with so many "good guys".

Matt, your medic bag is inside the RSO shack. Will you be able to stop by and get it tomorrow? If not let me know. PM inbound.

Today was AWESOME!!! Definitely worth the drive in the ice after no sleep. Huge thanks to WAGUNS and everyone who helped me get ammo and shoot some awesome bang bangs, meet people, watch others enjoying the sport, and feeling the concussions. Much better than watching the Space Needle fireworks. Def looking forward to pix.

:cheers2:

OH HELL YEAH to all of the above. I have a couple of pics that I'll put up later when I'm not quite so exhausted.

First, ESC rocks! A huge thanks to the range and all of the RSOs who helped make this happen. You guys run a great facility, and I can't think of a better place to hold this event!

And yes, many of you worked your asses off to make sure that we all had great food. What a difference it makes on a cold day like this to be able to grab a hot bowl of curry (thanks, Rita!), chili (thanks, Chris and family!) or stew (thanks, Curtis and family!). And then cookies, donuts, desserts, all of it . . . yup, it's fair to say that no pounds were lost today. :bigsmile: I'm so impressed that everyone pulled together to make sure that we had tables, food, generators, drink, etc.

And . . . guns to SHARE! I love that part of it. I saw a lot of generosity today with guns, ammo and time . . . I fucking love it. :cheers2:

Thanks to all of you that wore name tags. :bigsmile: I know I'm a little pushy with them, but I think it really helps the social aspect of the get-together. And let's face it, with 70 people and 15(?) or so benches, there's more socializing than shooting going on.

Good times!! A big thanks to everyone who attended today . . . it was awesome. As always.

And thanks to the bosses for covering our poor asses with the range fees. That was pretty damn cool of you. Better start thinking of a way to top that for next year.....

Oh, and if I shot your gun could you please let me know what it was and what caliber round? (PM is fine.) I'm still learning all this and much of it is a blur, lol. I'm so grateful how everyone at WAGUNS is ready and willing to teach a newbie about this stuff. You rock!

I remember 9mm Shield and Walther, .357 (Taurus???), AR15 (2), SKS, 454 Raging Bull (and those rounds still confuse me), I think more? My brain is swimming with numbers and my ears are still ringing, lol.

It was great to put a few faces to the names, and it was a great way to spend the day, and for the last time, it was not that cold!
