Granted he was getting big brothered big time. I was CC under my untucked hawaiian shirt and noticed an OC guy walking around with his wife. Three times I saw pairs of officers standing at a distance, talking into their radios and looking at him, sizing him up. Not once was he approached and he seemed to be having a great time. Never once did he draw his sidearm on a footlong hand dipped corndog or elephant ear. Eventually he was lefty alone.

Elephant Ears are usually pretty tame, but those Corn Dogs can be a real problem! I've seen them rip a guys guts right out! :cool:

Too bad he didn't take the class at the Sherrif's office....they'd set him straight as I've OCed there on a few occasions now and have had conversations about it in the class.

Wasn't me :(

GreenDrake, you and I are the only people from North Idaho posting on here recently. Maybe it was a lurker, though. The SpokaneOC groupare in the process of determining whether firearms are allowed at their fair. ..Don't think I am going to that one, either!

Any N. Idahoans or W. Washingtonians interested in a meet or shoot or bothon the 14th of September (Sunday) In Kootenai county?Thinking like a Tubbs Hill walk or something and up Fernan to shoot maybe.... (I really do not know if that is a good spot anymore)...... GreenDrake, If your interested let's start a thread. Would be nice if the Boise bunch had a pamphlet finished by then :uhoh:

Breakfast at Nosworthy's and the pit range out behind Hayden Lake sportsmans access, or perhaps the fellas out at the Fernan Rod & Gun Club may want some publicity and have an open day we can promote. I generally work most weekends, being in real estate, but I may get a hall pass for a day.
