What I've been doing the last couple weeks...

Getting ready for the Mississiooi Fandango, the State Championship of Cowboy Action Shooting. The 12th annual Fandango was at the Holmen Rod and Gun club October 9, 10 & 11. Over 150 competitors came from several states to compete using the guns of the wild west while wearing the clothes from the period as well. This is a picture of me and a group of my best friends on one of the town stages.
