Title: Three of us met today
Post by: heatherhistorian on April 04, 2009, 01:16:58 AM
Hi all.  We have had a great encampment so far.  Old Salt and I got to meet Quigley today.  That was really neat to get to meet someone from the forum.  We had a good time and were very glad to meet him.

Thanks Ironwood.  We are having a great time.  you can definitely tell the economy is down though.  Admissions are really low for yesterday.  Hopefully it picks up today.

If you look closely you can see the hawk midway between the thrower and the target.

   I think that may have been about the fastest break down time we have had. That is one of the thing that I have always admired about the Buck Skinning  Community, they will help you set up and tear down, if you forget to bring something you need for your camp some one will loan something to get you by, if on the firing line, if for some reason you run out powder, patch, ball,
or what ever some one will give you enough to you through. I have even a person loan another a rifle and get beat out of 1st place because of doing so.
   I suspect that this community is the same way. 
   I will quit preaching now and tell you that we had a great time no matter what the weather was.
