It's been a long time .....
« on: October 17, 2007, 11:57:06 AM »
I have been off the internet, due to moving to Utah, for over 6 months. We have been living with family until 2 weeks ago and now I finally have hi-speed internet service. I am so out of touch with what is going on as I haven't fired a round since March and still have all of my reloading manuals, etc in storage. We decided to move into an apartment until the home market turns even more into a buyer's market.

I just wanted to say, without getting too emotional, I really missed you guys and this site. I am going shooting this weekend with some of my new co-workers so I better get to work and figure out just where the trigger is and which end the bullet comes out of my rifles.

Hey guys ... thanks for the kind words ... I really appreciate it. Quick is right as I am only in the apartment for a short while. After we locate a home my wife likes, I can then again set up my reloading room. That is when the real fun will begin.

dw06 ...

We really like Utah and all that goes with it. I have been camping in the mountains several times already and seeing moose and mulies is a new experience for me. I have caught some nice rainbows in both lakes and rivers. I loved the low humidity and moderate temperatures this past summer. The winters here are yet to be enjoyed as they say the snow here is the best in the world ... if your a skier (I am not.)

I will eventually find places to coyote hunt which I really enjoy. I will look forward to eventually hunting for antelope, mulies, and lion if possible.

Again, thanks for the welcome back.

Don't forget elk. Utah is home to some tremendous bulls. Tags may be a little hard to come by, but be patient and eventually you'll score.

Again ... thank all of you for the very kind words. They mean a lot to me.

I have been away from reloading and shooting for what seems an eternity. I will be probably asking some weird questions in the coming weeks and months. We are going to shoot some clays (not actually my favorite way to shoot) this Saturday. We are also taking a few rifles with us and set up some targets to shoot at out in the desert.

Thanks again,

bjm
