This is NOT a commercial post. I did not ask Moderator permission however, since it was granted for the request, I hope it’s ok that I’ve posted a Thank You. 🥰 When I posted asking for help during End of Trail, @Boggus Deal #64218 and @Cpt Dan Blodgett, SASS #75655 responded! Many others stopped by to see if they could help - many of the Arizona Rangers and Match Officials did as well. ! Thank you all, too! Boggus Deal and Captain Dan’s son, Dan, who we named “Lt. Dan”, were so very helpful. I have known Boggus Deal for a long time. Boggus Deal’s help was priceless - securing/opening the tent with the winds howling as well as with projects I didn’t have time for and for which Tommy didn’t have the eyes… We met “Lt Dan” on Sunday before the match started when he came by with his Dad to meet us and figure out a schedule. He was a wee bit shy and said he didn’t know the cowboy game but that he’d do his best to help everyone who stopped by. OMG! By the end of the week, “Lt Dan” was gunning for “Employee of Week”. He learned all about the products, spoke to customers - “we offer a lot of products but bullets and powder are our bread and butter”. 🤣🥰. There were times I sat back and watched! Boggus and I were laughing with each other saying, “I thought he said he was shy”! Thank you guys so much! You made the week SUCH FUN, gave me the chance to shoot the match, not fret over Tommy, and enjoy ourselves. Thank you to this community for the outpouring of concern, prayers, love and kindness for Tommy. You announced yourselves since he can’t recognize faces and didn’t make it awkward. We all have battles that we are facing - and ours is fully public now…Tommy is more private than I and was a little unsure how things would go…it was a busy week, we were tired but boy, we felt some love. With all the hugs and love I possess! Scarlett Tommy Boggus Deal, Lt Dan (in FULL cowboy gear) and me Oh, 2200 lbs of lead came on a pallet. Lt Dan was moving so fast Boggus had to ask him to slow down! 😂 Boggus Deal and Tommy securing the tent for the night with the desert winds was no small feat.
