On the web from the Forest Hills Black Powder Brigade in one spot it says Armory and in another it says Main Exhibit Hall. Not sure which is correct, but the two buildings are about 200 yards from one another in the Wa Co Fair complex, so you will find it either way!

You won't regret it. That is if you can handle the vastness of Texas compared to little bitty ole' West Virginia. A re-cap for the list: Many of you all already know Laura Glise, one of our own, was diagnosed last spring with brain cancer. Lanney, Laura's special guardian angel, has been keeping us apprised of her condition with regular updates to the list. For months, I have been trying to come up with a way to do something for Laura. After all, what does one say to or do for someone who has cancer in their brain?? When Lanney wrote to the list Laura was sad because she was unable to come to Texas to eat the most wonderful BBQ in the world, I had the thought that getting to her her favorite BBQ would do her a world of good. Lanney wholeheartedly agreed and offered to drive to Central Texas to pick up the BBQ and have it shipped overnight. This is the last call for those who want to participate in blessing Laura this way while she is battling this horrible condition. I think the fact her MM friends are thinking about her, as well as the good eatin', would be a real treat for Laura and hopefully contribute to her healing--which is the goal. Please contact me off list if you wish to participate.

Can't share much knowledge on this subject but can relate a little experience. Several years ago I had a big hankering to get a couple mules. One for riding on our wilderness trails and the other for packing. As I do when embarking on any new project I sought out the knowledge of experience folks. Well, friends, I found a whole lot of 'eeksperts' out there and scads of contradictory information. My conclusion was that no one really knows anything about horses or mules. Reading didn't help much either most books and articles seem to assume that the animal is shod and do not address the subject of unshod horses or mules and none really explain why a horse is shod in the first place. Some folks told me shoeing was not necessary and that a horse if never shod is fine. But if a horse is shod it must be kept shod all its life. The sum total of all this contradictory information discouraged me from buying the mules. I did end up with a burro for packing. He was about seven years old when I bought him and had never been shod. He seemed to fare just fine without iron on his feet. Occasionally when it looked like I might have to trim his hooves they would just shed an outer layer and all would be fine again. If I ever get my mules, I think I will look for unshod ones and just avoid the problems of shoeing, especially since the need or benefits of putting iron on a horse'es feet seem unclear and perhaps unnecessary. (p.s. I just returned from almost two weeks in the woods for our ml deer/bear hunt and am catching up on my e-reading. apologies for the late post on this subject.) Frank G.

I always thought that Mountainmen were close knit... but I guess I was wrong. A while back, Victoria posted re Laura wanting ribs from Texas and thought it would be a nice gesture if we all pitched in and got her some. From what I understand from Victoria, it will cost about $100 to send the ribs to her in the hospital. HERE IS A CHALLENGE!!! Get off yer duffs and commit to $5 and lets get her her ribs!! People, this gal is fighting for her life... can'e we make her a little happy here?? Vicki... Re your email to me... if these guys don't come through, I will...
