I spent a few hours at Wartrace today, visiting with some of my friends at The Tennessee State Championship Match!!

 

Got my reservation for Black Gold confirmed along with a nice hug from Cat A Tonic!! 
 

They’ll have more information and details in a little while. First though, there’s a great match to be shot in Tennessee this weekend!!

 

I had a great time today and I’m looking forward to more of the same in mid July!!

 

Y’ALL GIT  READY!!!

High Cotton kitty and I will be there as always. Lookin' forward to it.

It was good seeing you at Wartrace. 


As I told several people the other day, I greatly prefer being seen to being viewed!!

 

It’s gonna be great seeing all of the usual suspects!  You and Kitty have become an anticipated pleasure that I truly appreciate!  
 

It’s just like Lady T said, several years ago when explaining what Black Gold was all about to some folks that had never been! I’m paraphrasing…

 

BLACK GOLD IS THE FAMILY REUNION THAT YOU KEEP GOING BACK TO BECAUSE YOU LIKE THE WHOLE FAMILY!!

After much discussion, fussin and gnashing of teeth we have decided to postpone the Lasagna throw down  at Black Gold due to something about heat and humidity, and heavy food. I was not paying any attention by that point. I was thinking about what would go down really well.....

Ice Cream came to mind. So starting on Friday lets break out the churns and turn out some Ice Cream. All flavors welcome,

 

Friday afternoon crank your engines and let the churns run. If it is a hit on Friday maybe we can make some more on Saturday.

Sorry to hear about the lasagna throw down going kaput.  But I understand, with that being said I'm still bringing a Lasagna to the match.  But to stay with the theme it will be a green Hatch chile lasagna.  Keep your fingers crossed for us.  Markie (second greatest pup next to Nicki) went in this morning for her fourth knee surgery!  She blew out her left rear leg ACL.  And Foxy is scheduled for her second Cataract surgery in three weeks.  And you know how bad her last one went.  So I may be there with my blind wife and gimpy puppy.  Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Just in case it matters to anyone I WILL be there selling primers after all!!

I decided to go and definitely vend, and play shooting by ear. If it’s too hot I can skip the shooting. I just never know these days.

Cleaned out/off the ice cream maker, found me some good South Carolina peaches and worked on my peach ice cream recipe. That worked well, now for the chocolate recipe for Lady T. 

 

One month and counting. See you there.

Being from Georgia now I felt it was required for me to try peach, that being said, there can never be too much Ice Cream of any flavor. Bring on more peach if you want to. Please.

Now you know if it didn’t have one when I first got it, it’d have one before I got through!!

 

Probably a V-Twin, or maybe a small block!! :lol:

GA only thinks they are the Peach State.  Even you said you had scored SC peaches.  Expect yours to be better (you need to make sure I get some of it, just saying).  I may come on with mine, or maybe I will make a deep dish pie to put ice cream on (traditionally I made this for Ringer, Teresa, and Joe).  Will see what I can scrounge up.

Never cared much for peach!! Now cherry or blackberry and you’ve got my attention!

 

I ran into Andy’s Frozen Custard a couple of years back and they have a raspberry/chocolate that is killer!!

 

If I decide to enter, I think I’ll try to make something like that!!

The motel is fine, but you may have to get on a waiting list.  


There are several hotels/motels in London which is about twenty minutes away.
