Just Pics
« on: April 08, 2009, 05:22:55 AM »
I didn't see a good place to post this picture.  So I just thought I'd start my own.

This is my lovely wife of 36 years.  Here name is Sharon but feel free to use her camp name...smokinbeaver.  Now I know that some day I will have to give the story behind that one...and no it ain't what you think.   :)

This was my wife taking part in an all female crew at an event in New Jersey some years ago.  She is the one with the one firing the gun.  That is when she feel in love with ordinance.  Ain't I lucky??

I would DD but it ain't my gun. 

My friend usually kept that one in his living room as a conversation piece.

Or for use if the party got a too rowdy.  ;D

I wish I could DD.  He and I were involved in a dispute with a state black powder organization back in the mid 90's.  I just bowed out gracefully and he stayed and fought.  Once the dust settled he went completely under ground.  I have no heard from him since around 1999.  He used to live in north Jersey but I am not sure any more.

He was mainly into Rev War period artillery.
