Mr. B and Midwest Chick were at the Indy 1500, working the Strike Hold* booth; they showed up after 4:00.
Joanna happened to be away for the first photo. She was there for these two, wearing a NaNoWriMo sticker: "Be nice, or I'll put you in my novel!"
Thought I'd Never Hear It: Tam, to Midwest Chick: "Your turse is way more tactical than mine!" MOLLE-capable tactikewt purses, I am so gonna save up!
Also learned that the kit-built Segway copy lacks the designed-for-quiet gearing of the original: "Sounds like you're riding a blender around!" Yikes!
...I had two (2!) hard ciders, came home, posted some music, dozed off, woke, had a snack, dozed off again, woke and here I am...and I'm headed for bed. Tomorrow, another busy day.
See you at the next Indy BlogMeet?

* Strike Hold is a dry-film lubricant with interesting and useful properties. SB tried a sample can at the range Sunday morning. Verdict? "It works!" Neat stuff -- ask Mr. B. (Somebody tell the FTC I got a free sample, too. Try it and make up your own mind).

ooof, I'm printing pretty bad.
And Wayne was open-carrying. Gosh, I love Indiana!
One thing about being fat ans wearing a shoot-me-vest, you can just about carry an MP5 and nobody notices. Hey, I never did get to show anyone my homemade holster!
Damn it! I missed Og?
Just. Damn. :(
It was a great time!
I had a P220 under my big old bulky shirt. And I didn't even harm a hippie.
It was great to meet Owen and Jay and Mr B. and Midwest Chick. Glad I made the drive in.
I love my turse. I think you all were just impressed by the handy Cold Steel holder. :-)
Can't wait to get the pouch to attach to the other side......
Good times, glad we could make it!

"Gosh, I love Indiana!"
I always wonder which freaks the hippies out more: Wayne OC'ing or Og holding forth about slaughtering plains game out front during our smoke breaks. :D
I have more stories. And I can also take off the shoot-me-vest and open carry too, for further experimentation.
If you have any intention of visiting Cabelas Hammond anytime soon, warn me, and we can go to my club. 3- 50 yard and a 100 yard range, and trap, lots of steel, and you can shoot the backhoe, I would love for you to shoot it. I can sometimes get weekdays if that makes things easier for you.
Sorry I missed it!
Thank you all for the kindness extended to me at the Blogmeet, it was just awesome to meet everyone...
I assumed y'all would be cool, but you just blew all my expectations away- the 'meet even overshadowed my visit to the Indy 1500...and that's saying something.
I will definitely make the trip again...It was so worth it to meet all of you in person.
