I am still in. Have a bit of some elk steak and sausage. Bringinge a small stove and a pot for boiling water for some coffee. I will be at the circle K pretty early. JM, Swing in there quick to see if I am there. I kind of remeber how to get back in there.
I won't be by there. I'm going straight up 285. I'm staying with the girlfriend tonight. But, I'll text you in the morning and see where you're at.Quote:

Hard to say but it looks a little foggy or maybe a thin overcast...can't tell since it's still dark outside.
BTW...from the Park Co Sheriff's Office:

Sodas and chips locked and loaded, heading out!
that is the exact wording? because that would rule out anything except a pure lead bullet (or pure copper I suppose) since every bullet jacket I've seen is some kind of metal.Quote:
6. Using explosive targets and metal jacketed bullets.
Then again since that says AND instead of OR and there would be no explosive targets involved...
Quoted directly from the website. Just presented for FYI purposes...interpret as you will.
Oh, yeah...light snow falling on Crow Hill.
Im hopeing the cdot plows have been out.
Roads are fine

I'm out guys. I was going to try to make an appearance, but with having to come from the Springs in my Celica, I figure I'd better not. Have fun.
Cofi's stuck'and he dosent want to risk getting stuck further up so were out. :(
If I had a car I would be up there allready [Coffee]
Y'all have fun!!![Beer]
Unless you've seen it, Friends with Benefits is good for a laugh. One of those movies with younger actors Timberlake and MILA [bad-banana]KUNIS. When my spousal unit says "That was a funny movie" and laughed a lot, i know it was decent.Quote:

Any weather reports from the hill area?
Out... Was going to try to sight in at CC but they aren't open either. My pussy ass is going to stay warm in bed
Temp is now down to 11 degrees. The woodstove is looking (and feeling) better all the time.
You guys are tougher than me. It's bitter out there. It's skin-sticks-to-metal cold. Has to be worse up in the mountains.
I never suggested I'd be there so now I don't have to come up with an excuse as to why I'm not going (pretty cool huh?) You guys are crazy. There probably hasn't been a worse weather day this year.
Yep it is cold and the fire place is crank-in and the loading room is where i will stay.For the rest of you that went I am sure the local E.R's can treat your frost bite [Coffee]
What a day. Now that I'm safe at home and warmed back up I can say that it was totally worth it. My special thanks to the guys who brought heaters and ez ups. Those made it waaaay better.
In related news, that's probably my last outdoor shoot until spring.
looks like it was a f-f-freezing shooting [Snow]
I'm thawed out and unloaded the truck.
For those of you who didn't come. Pussies. We were relying on some of you bastards for certain supplies. I hope you all get herpes.
It was a good time. Cold as a witch's tit in a brass bra but still good. I have to say, someone's wife (I can't remember her name) has bigger balls than the rest of you boys.
I think I went through $200 in ammo for the Barrett. Everyone that asked got to shoot it. Blew the SHIT out of a turkey. Dented an AR500 plate. Killed that bowling pin that was talking smack. All in all a good time.
My truck and now my house smell like burnt powder.. anyone wanna come help clean the 50? lol
Had a ton of fun, even though I didn't shoot much. Thanks to everyone that let me try out some different guns, that was awesome. Also, my apologies for not staying to help clean up, I had to make it somewhere by a certain time to pick up my wife's Christmas gift. Next time I owe you guys.
I didn't even know you were there.. didn't smell any bacon [Flower]Quote:

Oh, and JM has a story to tell about the little spat at the gas station. Thank god it didn't go any further.
Fixed that for ya.Quote:

Good time everyone, sorry the turkey didnt work out...
Got all the guns wiped down, still thawing out. Mrs made chili for dinner, which is the perfect end to the day.
When do the pictures go up?
