A big welcome back to "Bill Me Later". It was good to see that his encounter with a snow blower last winter couldn't keep a good cowboy down.

After a long and hard campaign, we elected new officers for the coming year. Starting July 1, "Oddman" will be president, "Kaniksu Kid" won vise president with "Elfego" continuing as Secretary/Treasure and "Stretch" continuing as Safety/Ranger Officer.

Even though there was still lots of snow on the ground, spring appears to be here. With it came the hibernating cowboys with 23 cowboys showing up to shoot and have fun. Several cowboys from Montana made the trek and showed us how it really done. Mud Marine provided another excellent lunch.

Looks like we will have the shoot on Sunday, February 24. I received the following email from Cap'n Crump.

Friday update - Oddman has arranged for a guy with a skidder & plow to clear the range today - we will need shooters to bring snow shovels (arrive a little earlier) to clean up around the stages and clear paths to the target stands. 
And don't forget to bring a little fire wood - we are running very short.

Looks like the match is CANCELED for February 10, 2008. I received the following email from Oddman:

Current info. on our shooting range:
 
Capt. Crump called me this morning and said he was not able to get his pick up truck running. (mechanical problems) We were scheduled to go and plow, and snow blow the range today. He further stated he attempted to contact Tom Griffin (property owner) three times over the last 5 days in an effort to get range plowed with a skidder. Mr. Griffin never returned his calls. (may be he went South for the Winter ?)
Due to the range condition we are going to cancel the Shoot tomorrow, with any luck and help we will have it up and operational in two weeks.  Sorry Guys

I recieved an update concerning Bill Me Later.

"He is still in Bonner General Rm 220, 263-1441. He needs to have a skin graft and will be there at least through Tuesday. Yes he can take calls but he sometimes sounds loaded which I assume is the morphine.

I recieved a e-mail from Tom Suttmeier about Bill Lewis aka; Bill Me Later

"Perhaps a note on the site offering some support for Bill Lewis. On Thursday he got his right hand caught in the auger of a tractor mounted snow-blower. It broke his fingers ( including trigger finger and tore off his skin on the hand and arm. He has undergone surgery and now awaits skin transplant.

No match was shot due to heavy snow and the inability of getting to the range. However, Mud Marine did show up. Looks like he won the match again. Received the following e-mail and pictures.

"I received a call about 1145 hrs. last Sunday.  Mud Marine wanted to know if I was coming down to the Range and have lunch, he had plenty of food because no one else was there. And by the way he needed a little help getting out of the Range. About one and a half hours later he was on his way back home. I think his next car should be a Hummer.

Received the scores and this e-mail from Oddman"

Hi Doc.     Sorry, we missed you last Sunday. It was around 37 deg. no wind,snow or rain, and we had the range plowed so there was no problem with snow. Eleven shooters showed up and completed 6 stages (see attached scores) The Mud man and Son fixed something different.  Chile & Beans with corn bread.!!! We ran out of fire wood around mid day, if you could remind everyone to bring 3-4 pcs. of fire wood for each shoot, it would be greatly appreciated. See you at our next Shoot.
