Sheesh... Jim called me today and never mentioned it was his birthday - but that's Jim... just a nice guy and pretty humble too.
Hey Jim, I hope you spent it doing something you enjoy!

Chris, have a great day chasing those ptricky ptarmigans

Thanks to all for the best wishes. I spent a good part of the day with my 2 grand daughters ages 2 & 5 mostly the 2 year old. She is a pip. The 5 years old is in school but we all went out to eat. A great day. Hopefully they or at least one will take an interest in shooting. Probably not hunting as they are Disneyized LOL.

Hey Brother, hope you had a good flight to the Emerald Isle. Here's an old Irish toast. "May the devil know you're dead a half hour after you're in Heaven. Thanks Mike.

Flight over was very uncomfortable. We had seats that wouldn't recline and very cramped. All is well now though. Staying at the City West Resort and it's amazing. I'm going to try and find a Parker over here.
