Ten Years, and still plugging along
« on: June 28, 2025, 10:19:53 AM »
What a difference a decade makes.  I posted these photos on FB and got an interesting (to me) reaction.
Ten years is a long time. Lotta ground been covered. Lotta grouse in the pan. Lots more out there waiting.  :tup:
Anybody else have photos they can compare from last year and 2014?  Me in the green shirt back in 2014.  Tan...last September. Both opening day shots.
Same shotgun, 20-gauge Franchi Legacy. Different sixguns...41 Magnum S&W and .45 Colt, Ruger New Vaquero.
