Idea for Leverguns get together
earlmck's post about taking a walk with his levergun, got me thinking it would be a great idea for a Leverguns get together, something alongs the lines of a three day hundred yard walk.

Re: Idea for Leverguns get together
Would love to join in on another get together. Just hope it's somewhere close to me, but NOT in Illienoise.

Re: Idea for Leverguns get together
I remember it happening (it was like the Hindenburg crashing) but I can't remember why anymore. Was it the wind?

Re: Idea for Leverguns get together
I would have to have some time to try for days off. If it can be put together, I would like to attend, if I can get the time off.

This started off as a joke Advancing age and crippled bones kind a thing. Hope someone brings a camera this time.
