    Default HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    It's reported that the first Thanksgiving was celebrated in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621 with English colonists and the Wampanoag people.

    The celebration was to give thanks for a bountiful harvest and for the colonists to thank the Wampanoag people for helping them settle and survive in their new land.


    As humans, we seem to have a natural inclination to focus on the bitterness in our lives. War, destruction, losses and disagreements take a front seat while the blessings we receive often times go unnoticed.

    Thanksgiving is a day for us to pause and take notice of our blessings. Most importantly, for those of us with a faith in a supreme being (God; okay?!), to give thanks to Him for all that we have.

    So today we give thanks. We give thanks for the many blessings in our lives.

    Among my many blessings, I want to give thanks for YOU, the Colorado AR-15 community. While we're often too ready to express our differences, we have a lot in common and share a fellowship within this community that I don't experience any place else.

    Thank you, COAR-15 members & HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
    When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
    Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

    I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. Mine is being delayed until tomorrow due to various work schedules and extended family commitments. Be safe all.

    We're thankful for the house full of kids and grandkids that were here for the past few days. Now we're thankful they're gone!

    Thankful for the promise of new hope for the country, for this forum and the friends I've made here. I don't have everything I want...but I have so much more than I've ever needed in this life. I'm also just happy to still be alive and kickin'.
