Hudson, WI -- What To Do?

[Griff]

Well... silly me... pushed hard to get my freight off all across WI, and have 3 stops left in MN... but they're all closed til Monday! Any levergunners out here near Hudson, WI... and feel like adopting a trucker for a weekend?

Definitely one of the more dismal aspects of such a vagabond lifestyle!

You have my admiration for dealing with freight people. At least my power plants are happy to see me no matter the day or time.

If you ever find yourself stranded in or around Gillette,WY give me a holler and we'll find something to do.

THAT explains why you're so angry all the time Especially in February.

[Booger Bill]

Get yourself a spear. The carp should be running about now.

If it were over the other half of the week, I'd have offered. Probably would've dragged you to a bunch of gun shops over a large radius and likely would've ended up at the range for a while.

As it is, today was my second 12-hour shift out of three for this weekend and still have tomorrow to go.

Your timing is off. Out of town this weekend. Last weekend was the sass match which was about 30 minutes from HUdson. Gun shops in town are on the south side of 94 . Bills gunshop is also a shooting range in the old movie theater and the Fleet Farm has good gun/hunting section. Just a few blocks apart. Not a lot of leverguns in those stores, but still stuff to look at.

To bad we could of put some lead down range. Maybe next time.

Yep... like above... the story of my life. I looked on the SASS site and saw I missed their shoot by a week... otherwise I'd not have asked... that's where I'd of been!

Hope y'all were safe from any ill-effects of the storms yesterday! Looked wicked on the weather.gov site over the north of the Twin Cities!

Met with levergunner PShort today for an afternoon touring the Camp Ripley Museum and droolin' over some fine leverguns! Picked up a couple of history books and received a surprise gift from Paul of another book on John M. Browning.

Thank you again Paul. It was a wonderful afternoon away from thr truck and doin' that "sight-seeing" thaing!

PS: Be sure to say "hi" to Pitchy for me the next time you see him.

Howdy,
Turns out that Griff was going to be passing about a mile from my house on his way to Perham..
We met up at the Randall Café, had lunch, then a great time at the Military Museum..
Back to my place for a visit, then he was on his way...
I feel fortunate to have met Griff and spend a few hours with him...
A real gentleman, I must say.......

Aw shucks, you're giving folks the wrong impression... I'm just a crusty old salt... barely civilized. Unlike yourself, being a lofty Airedale & all!

Griff, do you have a twin brother that I don't know about?
