Welcome to our humble boards!

So, have you guys picked a date yet?    ;D

I'm honored to have met you during your first "date" with Colonial... nice shooting... keep up the good work!   Hope that Colonial is learnin' you to be a Rifleperson as well.

Hope to see ya'll soon!   Maybe we should meet for dinner sometime.   Say half way between Sheridan and Casper... like Kaycee... anywhere to eat in Kaycee?

Hello again Count!! :D

Why are you so interested in us picking a date? GOT A COUPLE BETS GOING... so I heard ...

Thanks for the compliment in my shooting, still have my target, with all your holes in it  ;D. Showed it to my boss and had to explain that I wasn't that bad, but someone else was shooting intentionally in the corners! LOL! 

He is learning me pretty hard to be a Rifle-lover.  I guess I am pretty persuaded already to be one.  Not to mention that Biathlon and CS both made me answer the question... "what is a pistol for?"   Apparently I haven't read that Boston book yet, but I'm working on ML atm. 


Exxon doesn't have that good of hot dogs in Kaycee so apparently we are going to come up there and maybe meet you in Buffalo? or something like that.  How does that sound? "His wife isn't exempt from dinner"  quoting CS himself. Just call him and make some plans.

Nice to talk to you again!

If you come that far you might as well make it the extra 25 minutes into Sheridan.   Although, Buffalo does have Winchester Steakhouse... yummm...  Probably going to have to get a job before I can go back there.

Regardless, sounds like a plan.  We can call it a pre-engagement dinner  ;)

We will see! I wouldn't mind, I haven't seen much of Wyoming since I've been here. When I went to Douglas that was my second outing, Riverton being my first.

Although, Buffalo does have Winchester Steakhouse...


I haven't been to a "good" steak house since Texas Longhorns in Missouri.  I miss Lambert's too!  It's hard to find a really good dinner place here in Casper.  Just makes me want to cook at home more!

See ya around Count!

ROTHFLMAO   :o :o

You're not setting the bar very high at all!!  These "franchise" steak places have gone downhill in the last 3 years...smaller and smaller steaks with LOWER & LOWER quality.

I've learned the best steaks & times are had in small groups on personal property... ;D

Yea,  well I've heard that the White House in Sheridan is pretty decent.   When motivated the head chef cooks up some darn good stuff.    Sous-chef does some nice work herself...  Might be a bit on the spicy side for some folks ;)

Not at all.... Now to get her behind a good rifle. Still waiting for it to show up! It will come eventually, she should start this weekend at the AS in Casper.

Ok, I'm from ELDON... 5000 people... I went to college in Springfield (MSU formerly known as SMSU for non acronym folks that's Missouri State University formerly known as Southwest Missouri State University). I only went for a year because .. hell I'm still paying on those student loans.  Anyways back to my point... I haven't been to a Texas Longhorns in about 3 or 4 years.  Mom picked up an Applebee's habit and we haven't been to Longhorns since :(.   But I will stand firm in this opinion and no one will back me down; Lambert's in Springfield is the bestest restaurant ever!  It's the best down to earth, country eatin' served right in a cast iron pan! Got to love it!

colonial I hope you don't regret honing her pistol marksmanship skills! ;D

What's that supposed to mean? The only person I would shoot intentionally without good cause is my ex-fiance. (Trust me there's good cause)  I don't think CS has ANY worries about my "skillz"! If anything, he'll be happy because he can send me out hunting for the food!  Nothing like hearing the words "Honey, I'm home, AND I brought dinner!!"  Oh not to mention that he knows that if someone messes with me, I'm more than capable to defend myself!


Not at all.... Now to get her behind a good rifle. Still waiting for it to show up! It will come eventually, she should start this weekend at the AS in Casper.

He wishes :/.  I'm more shy than he thinks.  I like learning by myself.. it's a bad habit I MUST break!  But we will see this weekend I hope.

Welcome Hi-oopi.  Right now I am not too far from the Lake....  We will get down there around the July 4th probably....  Glad you are aboard here.  Wish I was there instead of close the Lake....
