Guys, it's been a long day. It's been a good day. The photos in the first post were taken by my self and Mike Bargman. I got in about 10:30 local time to the field and have been going aobut 1000 miles an hour trying to get some photos and supplies for the weekend. I will tell you, If you haven't had the chance to attend the Shoot Out, you are missing out. This is my first time in attendance, and I am blown away by the location. The field is surounded by mountains on every side. just a beautiful place to be. The area is just good for the soul.
