Thanks - it's good to be back. I've been busy training and instructing, just haven't been on this forum for ages.

I think we have a lot in common. Married 41 years, 3 kids, 5 grand kids and the 2 oldest just started driving. I can't be that old can I? good to know ya'.

Right back at ya Jar Head, and thanks. However, as dumb as this may sound, other than joining USA Carry, to what group are you welcoming me?

Grandpa is a good name. I'm not there yet, all in good time. I was sitting at the table looking at my son and wondering what shape the country and the world will be in when he’s a father.

1 Wife. I feel the need to keep her as she does me, must be love.
1 Daughter. My angel and my connection to what little feminine side I have.
1 Son. My fishing buddy and firearms safety student, and a connection to the little boy that still lives in me.
1 Cat. He brings me dead birds and chipmunks to eat. I haven't the heart to tell him I prefer beef..

I have the wife and daughter do it. I have no artistic ability...
