I hope so. I was on the verge of getting plastic surgery, or just ripping my face off.

I read all the books. Edward in the movie is ugly though. I don't get the hype.

Too bad that clip isn't just a tad longer...so everyone could hear the car alarms you set off in the parking lot.

Hey Ben, good to hear from ya, we were just wondering where you had been!

Drove to Gunnison, Colorado to attend a Zins/Moody bullseye clinic. There's a reason Zins is the 10 (wait...11) time National Champion. My head is so stuffed with "Why didn't I think of that before? That's so simple!" stuff that I figure it'll take me a year of training and two of competition before I internalize it all.

Note: I'm now looking for a 1911 'smith who won't look at me funny when I ask for a "roll trigger." If I don't find one, I'll probably wind up putting off a major purchase for about a year...but I'd rather not. Recommendations would be welcome.

Luckily, I was in Gunnison between tourist seasons. The summer tourists who hike, fish, and ride the river were long gone. The winter tourists who ski wouldn't arrive until after some snowfall so it was pretty easy to get a feel for the place. I liked it a lot. Good food, nice people, and lots of folks completely baked on the ganga at all times. Seriously, half the people I gave money to (retail clerks, etc.) were clearly being interrupted in the middle of a "smoke break". I even heard a couple of folks older than me in the local washateria talking about their crops...and I don't mean beans. No wonder Colorado has a marijuana decriminalization (or is it legalization?) measure on their ballot this election.

Trivia - They have the fourth smallest Walmart in existence. Ever been to a Walmart with just *4* checkout lanes? I have. Frankly, it was weird. The local family-owned grocery was bigger and better by every measure.

With nothing else to do and since, in reality, there's no *good* way to drive from southeast Colorado to Houston, I decided to just wander for a while. I drove around looking at pretty scenery and tricking my Gran Marquis into showing average mileage calculations of 99.9 miles per gallon; when you're descending out of the Rockies and the next 10 miles are all downhill, screwing with the mind of your car's computer is fun. :-)

I was really surprised to see a bobcat, a bear, and a whole bunch of pronghorn while driving around on county roads in Colorado and New Mexico. I wasn't surprised to see several coyotes smeared over the road.

Eventually I wound up in Raton, went out to the Whittington Center and spent way too much time there. I swear I could move there just for the reference library at the Center if it weren't for the fact that Raton, itself, is such a miserable little place. There's not a decent restaurant in the whole town.

In short, I spent a while on the road until a family illness called me home.

Hope to see you guys on Saturday; I need to do some outside training. I'll bring my Britarms

in case anyone wants to play with it.

Side note: I'm thinking of getting one of these:

Anybody had any experience with them?

Glad you made it back safe and sound. That Ruger looks pretty awesome. Never seen one before but it looks like a modded 22/45
