  1. EOT set up starts Wednesday morning, before the match starts.

    If you have never been out to help and see the details in getting a match like EOT off the ground, you should!

    So give a thought of coming out, if even just one day...see what your Rangers and Board Members do to get your match up and running. Captain Dan Bloggett will feed ya, and who knows...you might decide being a Ranger is something you'd like to do!!!

    Safe travels to all who are headed this way!

    See you on the range.

    He is doing very well!

    He is walking...which it could have not gone that good!!!

    We have his knee scooter (he used that to shoot clays the other day.)

    We have his IWalk ,that is a pegleg...

    And of course, his mega Transformer boot!

    Usually uses 2 canes if walking a lot.

    I tell ya...the first day he was able to put weight on that foot, and went to the restroom...you'd have sworn he'd just had sex in the bathroom!!! He said it sure felt good to stand on 2 feet to pee!!! Hahahahaha!

    Deacon KC and Walaby....you are my 'twisted' brothers!!!

    Certainly looking forward to seeing friends and enjoying whatever RS and all the EOT Rough Riders have laid out for us.  This will be my 26th in a row.  Our plans are to hit Red River Valley Cowpokes President's Day match on 16th then slowly head west to Tombstone for Tumbleweed Shoot-out and few days to "mellow out".  Monday the the 23rd we head to Phoenix where we will Vrbo near Cavecreek with bunch of shooters.

    You and Shan are probably already there so stay safe.

    We are! Have neen enjoying grandbabies and kids since Christmas! At a Resort, enjoying pool/spa...Shanley getting around pretty darn good!!!

    Will move to the range here in a week...then it will be working hard to get the match ready! Safe travels to you and all our TX crew!

  5. Thank you Billy Boots for your actual imput on the stages.

    Seems you are the only one so far to actually HAVE input on the post as it is...

    Sigh, all others seem to be posting opinions on what they feel a match should be.

    Can't wait for BB and SB hugs!!

    That's where I booked.  There were only two standard, full hookup sites after I booked, but plenty of premium (overpriced) sites left.

    We stop in there and fill with water

    ... and on our way out to dump...around $15

    I hope we get to shoot the match with you!

    My wife does not like dry camping.  I just made reservations at nearby full hookup campground.  Every route between my home and Grand Junction goes through beautiful country.  I'll take two days coming and going so we can overnight in some lovely, peaceful campgrounds.  BTW, I'm bringing a big lasagna for the potluck.

    The KOA is very close to the range...

    Where are you at Sue? Your cabin looks to be in a nice nature type area away from idiots!

    Well...MOST idiots!

    We live in Southwest CO...on the Wimanuchue Wilderness.

    We are in a quiet neighborhood...great community of full timers (year round living...not just summer home)

    BUT...we did bug out to allow this silly foot to heal...and get Shanley walking again without fear of snow and ice...so we are in Phx area.

    He needs a knee scooter. I an ankle replacement a few years ago and had one and it was great. 

    Has one. He used it to shoot clays last week. Issue with the scooter was even with wide 'all terrain' tires, it did not like our mountain terrain.

    Once again, not a beard but a right and proper mustache. Looking forward to seeing you folks at EOT.

    Oh, but my man...Shanley's IS a beard.

    The hair grows BELOW the lip line...which makes it a beard.

    See ya soon!!

  14. Still need Long Range Volunteers?

    Don't have to be a LR competitor in order to volunteer ... you'll get a tutorial on what and how.

    Flashers are there to help...

    Just a couple of hours a piece...

    Get ahold of Sunshine Kay if you can offer a couple of hours on side match day.

    You'll get a meal, a nifty pin and gratitude...because without the volunteers, matches can not continue.
