Thanks for the insight and pics. So typical of you...ask for 2 cents worth and you throw in a C-note. You are a giver and most of us appreciate it. Shame on those who don't.
I was somewhat familiar with your background from the scores of posts I've had the pleasure of reading. I was hoping for just a bit more and you didn't disappoint. I still wish you were writing but I can accept the fact that that part is over.
Best to you & Karen

Friend Rick,
Absolutely no problem. Actually, it was kinda fun, looking back upon a very active life and I didn't even mention the shotgunning aspect of it.
Did you know that my dad and I once owned the "Two In A Family" .410 Skeet World Record? In the Oregon State Championships, Dad shot (with his silly Krieghoff) a 197, while I used my el-cheapo Remington 1100 to shoot a 198. Our aggregate was a 395. Our World Record held for about a couple of years and then was eclipsed by one clay.
As I mentioned, something I will always regret is not pursuing the big game writing thing. I really had so much to offer, but the opportunity and the years are gone now.
And I'm tired.
