I'll be there.

I have had the first negative encounter in awhile outside Trader Joe's yesterday.

Sometimes you gotta wonder about the mental stability of people who claim to be afraid of you yet they then approach you to give you what for...:cry:

All over town, usual places, usual normalcy exercise. Very comfortable to OC in bellingham. All you Lurkers should come out and try it. Can't be a "normal" thing to do if you aren't doing it. I did have one incident. I was in a shop looking at Halloween stuff when an old looking guy asked.."Does anybody give you any trouble for "packin?" " I looked at him for just a second and replied, " No......are You?" He laughed and walked away happy.

On another note, Rob, I got the go ahead from John at the big site. I will make a request for volunteers.

Great Robert. I rec'd a call from Parks & Rec confirming our reservation for the area. I am going to do a recon of the area and look at set up of the area. I was thinking about Friday with coffee after. Anyone want to help with the planning? Let me know and we can carpool.

This Friday? Maybe after 3 or so I can make it. Working in Blaine and meeting with state libertarian chair and other libertarians around lunch time.

All interested in Libertarianism are welcomed to join.

Still packin'!

Cost Cutter, Yorky's, Lincoln Park, Blaine.
Another 250 down range (the pit) with my G22. Fine, very fine.

ARADCOM, you still out there?

Hey Sky, SVG, MSG, etc. Yeah, still here. New girlfriend is keeping me pretty busy but she's good with OC so that hasn't changed. Although with the weather change it's a lot of CC now.

I'll try to make a Sunday meet but that time mostly doesn't fit my schedule but 'maybe' this Sunday if the weather is bad.

Haven't really OC'ed in any new places except Mt. Baker Theater for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band show Wednesday and the Cody Rivers show a few weeks ago. Other than that it's been the same old regular stores and businesses. Although I have OC'ed on some new hiking trails, Watson Lakes down by Baker Lake for one, and have gotten a few positive comments.

Hey ARADCOM, good ta' hear from ya'. New girlfriend, that explains your absents.

Packing Banana. Meeting at the bar, not use to disarming. Thanks SVG for introducing us to all your cool "lib" cats.

MSG escorted me to the courthouse. Registered to vote, exercising our right to carry in gov buildings. The gal behind the counter was oh so nice.
There was a woman new to the country, registering to vote for the first time. MSG and I showed her what liberty looks like.

What a week, all over town again. My favorite LEO, officer allen bass was in the park again thursday. Lori and I were walking dogs as he went by. He smiled and waved.
Took a walk thru Bloedel Donovan Park with Boomboy and his pup. Had dinner at Downtown Bobs. City Hall, lowes, home depot office max, all the grocery stores. Nobody notices or cares about the weapon.

Choir practice today people. All you Whatcom County Lurkers, come on down........Starbucks, 1000, bakerview road, be there!

Is someone making a concerted effort to appear supportive?

I'll be there today. Hopefully Jason joins us today too, he said we convinced him to OC, he was afraid of harassment by the cops.

OC trick or treat

Trick or treat at the most haunted house in B'ham.
O'my, MSG Laigaie and the Hammer surrounded by zombies.
The dead crawling up from the gave. Mad scientists and a lost soul execution on the electric chair.
Leaping spiders and dead babies.
Well done MSG, very well done.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed.
The Mother-in-law was here for the Holiday and she remains. We went for a bit of shopping and then lunch at Applebees. Good meal(surprise), good service and no worries about weapons. All in all a good time.

Well I might try to make Dal (lentils) Indian style, beyond that...I'd rather Workman keeps working the grill. :cool:

If you make it up this way let me know we have an awesome Greek restaurant by the airport that makes the best lamb kebob!

Blain City Hall ask a few building questions about their ridiculous height restrictions, and some silly choices a homeowner made.....They didn't bat an eye at my OC.
