I am leaving in the morning. Headed off to the Denver area to visit my son for a few days. I decided to drive so I could take a few guns along to do some shooting with the Boy. Planning on shooting his AR 15. That is his patrol gun, he is a cop. I'll take along my mini 14 and a borrowed Taurus 1911. I want the boy to shoot that Taurus and see that it is a quality weapon. Talk to you guys sometime in the future,.

Got back from flaming Gorge on Wednesday. Fishing was wonderful, but catching was not so good. The lake level was raising quickly and the fish were scattered . The weather got bad every afternoon and we were chased off the lake. Wednesday morning the skies opened up as we prepared to launch the boat.. we turned the truck around and headed for home. But we did have a great time. There was more then one discussion about going back this fall. I hope that we do.

WASHINGTON -- A gunman opened fire inside the Holocaust Memorial Museum in the nation's capital Wednesday, shooting and reportedly killing a security guard before other officers returned fire and shot the assailant, officials said.
WTTG, the FOX affiliate in Washington, has confirmed that the 39-year-old guard who was shot has died of his injuries after being taken to a hospital.
Police are now looking at an elderly man identified as James Von Brunn as the shooter, FOX News has learned -- though D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier would not confirm the identity of the suspect.
A man named James Von Brunn operates a white supremacist Web site, Holy Western Empire, that carries several anti-Semitic statements. A biography of Brunn posted on the site says he is a World War II veteran who served time in federal prison for trying to make a "citizens arrest" of Federal Reserve Board members in 1981.



Any way you want to look at this it is terrible. I pray for those that have shot. But I am amazed that the news is all over this white supremacy nut job, but will hardly mention the Muslim wing nut that killed a US solider at a recruiting office last week.

It seems the Left is attacking Conservatives blaming those who attended the
‘Tea Party's” for the cause of this attack, they need to remember that their number one President Obama wants to meet with another Holocaust denier, President Ahmadinejad.”

Busy day, mom and I got haircuts, I had blood drawn, I put "miracle gro" on the garden, and I changed the filter for my air conditioner/ furnace. This is one of those big high efficient type filter that is a bit of a pain to change. But it is done and should be good for the next six months. I also bought some locks for my gate and my work shop. I had a key lock on the shop but every time I went out there I forgot the key. So I have a combination lock now. Now to sit back eat a banana and maybe have a glass of wine.

The bride and I went to the Fleetwood Mac concert last night and it was wonderful. I did confess to my bride of almost 37 years that I had been in love with Stevie Nicks years ago. She made me promise that there would be no lusting during the concert. I pretty much kept my promise. However I did fall in love again. Stevie came out in the flowing warps that made her look almost mystical and her haunting voice and lyrics captured me again. It was two plus hours of great music and wonderful memories. The singing stopped and she walked off the stage and out of my life. It was over, and I left with the bride just as happy as a man could be even though I can not convince the bride to change her name to Stevie but I'm working on it.
