The gunfire stops...the smoke clears ...and a lone figure stands on the dusty trail as the assailants flee to their waiting horses.

A page from a western novel...No, a modern day cowboy or cowgirl has just finished a stage from the growing sport called Cowboy Action Shooting.

Howdy and welcome to my campfire....find a comfortable spot and help yourself to what ever is simmering in the pot...although I have to warn you it's probably hot chocolate, I don't drink coffee. If you have a little time you can mosey through a few photos and see what this is all about or you can leave the old west behind and check out a few different links to things I find interesting.



The gent on the left is Jonathon Slim Chance...center is Wild Mike (your host) and on the right is the late Mad Hatter.

Slim said I ought to title this "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly".

Thanks for dropping by and sharing a little time around the fire. Have safe journey and watch out for the varmints along the trail.
