I understand that.

But I do use a have-a-heart trap to catch the mice to feed to the cats.  It's like watching Wild Kingdom LIVE!

One has to respect the decisions another makes on grounds of conscience - it is a strength to infrequently exercised.

Hunting will not be part of the Cannon shoot. For those that do, it is something that can be done pre or post shot. For those that don't Glacier  Park is  70 miles west and Yellowstone is  300 miles south.

     Sounds like a perfect solution, DD.  Mike and I visited Glacier Park this past September for the first time.  The landscape is so incredibly beautiful that it bankrupts the English language!  As for Yellowstone, I spent my honeymoon there at the Old Faithful Inn during the early 80s and have been there twice since with the family, after the fire.  It looks a heck of a lot better now than it did in '89 right after the fire.  The new growth seems to be a brighter shade of green.  So Tim can find Yellowstone, I have included the GPS coordinates which are:

                                                                                            44 deg. 27.605 N       110 deg. 49.881 W

     We will be bringing 4 cannon with us, two smoothbores and two rifles and we are looking forward to meeting artillerymen from all parts of the United States.

Regards,

Mike and Tracy
Smokin' my pipe on the mountings, sniffin' the mornin'-cool,
I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets
It's only the pick of the Army that handles the dear little pets - 'Tss! 'Tss!

From the poem  Screw-Guns  by Rudyard Kipling
