Here is my current one following a long list of them through my life. This folks is NCOWS (National Congress of Old West Shootest). The idea is to be historically accurate in both firearms and dress in a time period of 1867 to 1899. I fit in at about 1894 period. Oh and shooting is not so much time as accuracy is more important as a miss cost severely. Pistol targets are 6" diamond shaped targets at 25 to 30 yards, rifle are 50 to 60 yards about 12" square or cowboy shaped. Picture below is my Rossi R92 or copy of Winchester 1892 lever action. It shoots 45 Colt as do my 1873 Colt replicas.

My other and longest hobby is car racing. My 90 Mustang GT setup for American Iron Road Racing.

We live in the same house and work in the same building. Yet we drive both cars as daily drivers. Combined gas milage 13 MPG.
Unless we are racing home, then FO-Get-Aboot-it!

I almost won ,,,,,once.

But it is OK. Even after 43 years, I truly love looking at her @ss all the way home.:biggrin:

Just returned to saltwater aquariums concentrating in corals and their propagation. Currently have a 90 mixed reef (with fish), 40 show (it's really my wife's but I help :biggrin: ), two 40 breeders for coral propagation, and another 40 for spare live rock. ............. **The full size pic of my tank is shitty because I was experimenting with 2 different spectrum bulbs**

Big Dog,

This is way cool! I had no idea. Never owned an aquarium, but have always looked longingly at them.....

Best regards, Kirk

Amazing stuff there Big Dog.

But,

wouldit not be cheaper to buy a wet suit, flippers and a plane ticket for Aruba?

Your photos remind me of a sailing vacation to the Carribean Windwards/Tobago Keys reef.

Cathy and I spent days snorkeling over miles of untouched virgin reefs there. Breathtaking and frankly a life changing experience.

Beautiful, Big Dog.

I have a fair appreciation of the corals and know how difficult and EXPENSIVE they can can be to propagate and manage.

WOW! How long have you been investing time and effort into this amazing and rewarding hobby? I take it you are retailing the bounty?

Sitting on my tractor is some of my happiest times . Second would be in Panama working with the guys and watching the kids grow up .Hunting has always been up there but I have no need for the meat now and would just as soon sit on the deck swing and watch the Elk Babies in the front pasture . Its hard to beat that when I am holdin Mama's hand too .
