:bigbye:I think I can now take the 20 lbs of sausage out of the freezer to defrost for tomorrow's fun shoot. To reiterate previously, I am bringing the following to the picnic/grill/bbq:
20 lbs Italian sausage with rolls
chips and condiments
paper plates
1 bottle of Clyde's Cider Mill's famous 'Blackout' (some of you may remember this from last year - you killed 2 bottles of the stuff!)
pair of tongs and spatula for whoever grills:bigbye:

You da man Allen!

Funny, I thought you called that stuff "Old Stump Blower" after Uncle Perk's famous recipe from the classic "Minutes of the Lower Forty". Well anyway, after the guns are stowed in their cases we'll commence to helping you reduce the amount of stuff you'll otherwise have to lug back home.

:rotf:Most of the sausage is links b ut I did make some in quarter lb (or more) patties for those who might prefer to eat their sausage like a burger (really good this way!) so I'll throw in some cheese.

Clyde's hard cider is a 'stump blower' of another nature......:rotf:

His Blackout hard cider is aged in sherry casks so it is really nice and easy.

After the shoot we'll relax and enjoy the rest of the day and each other. It will be fun and we're looking forward to getting together with all tomorrow. :bigbye:

It's been a looong winter - it'll be great to all get together again at Addieville.

The Mapleville weather shows rain ending by 6:00am with temps starting in the mid 50’s and climbing into the mid 60’s. I just spoke to Dave and we are on for tomorrow. Should be a great day and we look forward to seeing everyone there.

Allen, I will be bringing plenty of hot dog and hamburger rolls paper plates and knives and forks for all of us. See you guys and gals in the AM

Thanks Dave but already purchased rolls, mustard, chips, lettuce, cheese and tomatoes.

If anyone has a barrel wall thickness gauge ...would you mind bringing it as I'd like to get the wall thickness measured on this Ithaca Hammer gun I purchased yesterday. thanks

Dave just made a 'state of the art' wall thickness gauge. Maybe he'll be a nice guy and bring it.

Dave is a nice guy and maybe he'll bring his instrument along.

Allen, I always have my instrument with me.But I prefer to call the barrel wall tool a gauge...
