I was wearing jeans, t-shirt, leather jacket and leather gloves...<BR/><BR/>But then, I live in Sweden, and as far as I know, my ancestry goes back to the vikings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5306024999105542124.post-55654736896367020932008-01-23T18:53:00.000-06:002008-01-23T18:53:00.000-06:00Sound like you had a lot of fun even if you had gu...Sound like you had a lot of fun even if you had gun problems that caused you to shoot under par.<BR/><BR/>I've been thinking about taking my Dad to one of the machine gun shoots they have up at Knob Creek.<BR/><BR/>I was told they have one in Texas somewhere a couple of times a year.<BR/><BR/>Do you have any knowledge of that?

Remind me to give you an extra neck gaiter and long OD wool scarf I picked up a while back.<BR/><BR/>Good idea on the goggles. I'll keep an eye out for some that'll fit over eyeglasses.<BR/><BR/>Later - -JPGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01224444263429720535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5306024999105542124.post-86647712093571079842008-01-22T15:41:00.000-06:002008-01-22T15:41:00.000-06:00"It was about as cold as I figured it'd be.
