Seattle to Spokane, Spokane to Salmon, Salmon to Boise, Boise to Seattle.
I'll get some reports and photos together next few days, but 2 forum related bits, The second Sixguns book went for $150-$160 and the plaque went for $125 - $130 if I remember correctly (I'm still a little hazy but that sounds about right). Larry McMillan won the Freedom Arms Revolver. Thanks for the support MB and Safaris and the rest of you as well! And thanks to ChrisO for holding down the fort.

OK, lots to sort through, but I thought I'd post a couple of photos:
Gary Barrett, owner of the Lantern bar in Salmon, with a picture drawn by (name escapes me at the moment, If someone could look this up, did he have a friend named Ed Joy when he was in Salmon?) When Mr Keith was the constable of Salmon.
Looks like it says "Elmer Keith by Ed Joy"
Honorable mention goes to Santo, an old Wyoming lawman.

The 600 yard target, point value reduced from 1,000,000 to 800,000 points because the Match Director thought hitting it in a 30 knot cross wind was to easy!

I saw your plaque at Cabela's, but the photo was not there. The 16' high pilaster the plaque was on had a huge representation of the photo on it. Asked the management about the photo, They said it must be in Sydney, Nebraska at corporate HQ.

Yes the photo was sent on CD to the home office. The Dry Creek Bullet Works plaque & credit for the photo was all I asked.

My mistake, for some reason I was expecting to see the photo hanging there.
Thanks--

They decided to increase the size of the photo and place it at the entrance. When they wanted the photo I wasn't sure what they would do. I'll contact then and perhaps they will put a copy there somewhere.
