It's a mixed bag, but there seem to be fair number of old hippies in the ranks. At least that's the photographic impression.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Evan, count me in. I will be at Red Rocks the night of the 12th. Joe Bonamassa concert.

And then? Head East! I haven't driven across Kansas in decades.

Looking like a good plan coming together. Thanks for your work.

Oh, man! Bonamassa at Red Rocks?!?!? I should fly out and join you!

Glad to hear you're going to make the trip!

Tell all your Henry friends!

Yeah, when talking of ill repute descriptions, those high plains cowboys take second place to none!

Slight wrinkle to this gathering, but the owner of Home On The Range has decided to focus his efforts on professional training, so isn't really entertaining any group outings such as ours this year.

The good news is the oft-discussed Missouri Dept Of Conservation has a great facility on the east side of KC, not far from the "Lake City Ammo Plant" you all have probably heard of. The rifle range is closed for reno/repair right now, but opens in about a month. The facility has pistol, rifle, archery and shotgun facilities, so if anyone want to shoot some clays, bring it on!

More to come, as always, but here's the link to the MDC Range Website:

Bummer Evan, at least you have the other option. :)
