I just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July. As we celebrate the birth of our great nation, keep in your hearts all of the men and women that are serving over seas, the ones who have served, and the memory of those that suffered so greatly to forge this nation into what it is today.

Drive safely if you travel, don't celebrate too hard, and those that play with fireworks, remember others around you. Do so in a safe manner. As for me, I will relax and make my noise with black powder and a good flintlock rifle. And be back here after the holiday.

Thank you Dave, and well written!

Same back at you

You too fellows, we have been on the Outer Banks with my brothers and sisters all week...Getting ready to go get some seafood and then see how bad this storm might be tonight...

I was just watching the weather forecast on that storm along the east coast. I hope all of them get to a safe place.

We are planning to ride it out, they had been taking 25-30mph winds until about 3 hours ago and then changed it to more like 80-90...

I shoot My Flint lock also to celebrate the 4th

I would ride that one out also for sea food, good fresh sea food too I bet. Be safe though.

Just put a new scope on the plains rifle and may sight it in today.

All good here, the wife woke me at 3 as the house was shaking...We went to the lowest level until the eye passed over about 6 then went back to bed..

Glad to hear you and the family are safe. Keep your head down and your feet dry.
