[TPR] Fishing trip to Alaska

[Asa Jay Laughton]

I'd be up for a trip to Peter's ranch too, though I don't have a lot of 
travel plans that put me in that area next year.  I'll be in San Diego 
at  the end of January, then most of my remaining trips will be back 
east, D.C. and Orlando mostly  it seems.

Of course I could probably grab a cheap Southwest flight down if someone 
picked me up and gave me a place to lay a bedroll.

I have a .50 caliber as well.  Though I doubt it's nearly as 
sophisticated, being a muzzle loader.  :)  I'm pretty sure  I can hit 
the broadside of a barn, but plinking bumble-bees at 1700 yards might be 
a bit tricky.  It's sure fun to shoot.

I also have an old Winchester lever-action 30-30 that belonged to my 
grandmother, on my father's side.  She used to hunt deer with it.  I 
recently had it in to a gunsmith for some small work and they commented 
on how it was the nicest they'd seen for a while.  We've kept it clean 
and stored the best we can (between my father and me).  I've been 
anxious to run some sabotted X-cellerater (sp) ammo through it; haven't 
had the chance yet.

I kind of feel all John Wayne when I handle it.

Alright... back to work, on something, I don't know what, plenty to keep 
me busy.
