Title: You Learn Something New Every Day
Post by: tt11758 on February 02, 2009, 05:24:42 PM
I am SO excited by a couple of recent discoveries.

1)  From watching the TV show "Cowboys" a week or two ago I learned that there is an organization called "NCOWS"  (National Congress of Old West Shootists) a cowboy action group.

2)  From perusing the NCOWS website I learned that there is a "posse" located within an hour's drive of my home!!

I can hardly wait for spring!!

Sass and the coverage of the organization on "Cowboys" was what originally got me interested in CAS.  However, the closest SASS club is 3-1/2 hours away.  :(

Looks like all you have to do is put on your cowboy hat and hop on your "goldwing" is it?  New avatar pic.
What a great way to spend the weekends.

It is a Goldwing.  Old one.  3 bikes ago, but I can't find pictures of the newer ones.     lol

Besides, I still have a couple of hairs that hadn't yet turned grey when that pic was taken.  ;D

That's been something of a challenege the past few years, too.  Mrs. T has referred to it as "a race between grey and gone."
