Ahlman's Shooter Show....

Meet a lovely mother with her lovely daughter.   I saw them wandering about and was thrilled to see them interested in shooting.  And the hearing protection was good.  Well done, Mom!

 Would Annie Oakley have some competiion?

Re-enactors from the Ahlman's Shot Show.

 If I remember correctly, these gentlemen were part of the artillery crew.

 I really like this photo.   It captures the grief and profound sadness of a soldier who fought and survived the Civil War.  GAR stands for the Grand Order of the Republic.

 What wonderful participants.

We have a jester!  He was hilarious!  

We have..Chester from Gunsmoke!  OK.  Maybe he isn't Chester.  But he was having so much fun in his hillbilly role!

And we need a country music persona, too!

Well done to all of you!

Participants of the Ahlman's Shooter Show.

 I really do enjoy the costumes that various people wear to the show.  They take a lot of time to get "just right".   And they are entertaining!

Am Observant Participant

The young lady below was sitting by herself while her friends were observing some shooting event.  She was quite stunning with the sun shining on her.  So, I approached and asked to take her photo.  I always ask.  

 Thank you so much!  It was lovely chatting with you.   But wear hearing protection!  It is noisy at Alman's during the shooter show!

Food at the Gun Show

Meet the gentlemen selling a great lunch, including some fantastic spicy beef sticks!  

Thanks for the free sample!  It was great!

Honey of All Flavors

 This gentleman was selling honey.   Not just the normal, run of the mill, honey.  ALL KINDS of honey!  Even Root Beer flavored honey.  That's got to be good!

I appear to have lost my list of names that match to photos.  SIGH.

But I do recall this gentleman was trying to get me to sign up for something!  OK, that isn't very helpful. 

But here he is!  I liked his smile and disposition,
