Thankyou Sir.

Yes, it been a long and tortuous road to get here. Not quite fire & floods (but darn close). I can already visualize the first game trail I'll be carrying it on, coming into that first "hot" corner with the gun up, the hammers fully-cocked and ready to go. The slanting sun will be shining, the leaves will be falling, and the pungent smell of autumn in the north woods will be filling my nose, and I'll be searching keenly, listening for that furtive "putt, putt" of an alarmed grouse before it launches...

When I was younger, I remember having much different fantasies....oh well, this will have to do for now.
