    I had a great time shooting with the "Denver/Chicago" contingent on Saturday afternoon...I encourage you folks to go find a shotgun shooting club back home and go have more fun!
    Glad you were able to enjoy my shotgun and help me put some shells through it!
    See you next year...

    Sorry I missed out on that one, next year though...

    The Convoy is about to reunite outside of St. Louis (had a long rest break), and head home. I would rather not see this trip come to a close, but all good things must come to an end. :(

    One of the best comments of the weekend from the night security guard when Dick and Dave.0 crested the hill and bounced into the parking lot just below vendor row ..."okay, you did it once....don't do it again".

    Well its official, the 2014 Colorado Convoy is over. :(

    Now to get a little deep for all the convoy members... (Dont get all teary eyed, I'm still the same old Dick) It is extremely hard for me to say goodbye, or even to tell people how I feel, but I can type it out, so here goes...

    Live to remember, never to forget. You all who where strangers, and mere acquaintances a few months ago now have a new friend. One that will always be there no matter what, never turn their back, and will do his best to help if ever needed. You gave me the opportunity to have the best time of my life in the last 9 years, and I did just that. Given everything I have been through, I find it very hard to be comfortable around people, yet with the three of you, it was like we have known each other for years. I want to thank you for giving me a new outlook on my life, and something to look foreword to. Material items only mean so much when you get down to it, but it is the memories and happiness that means the most.
    I cant wait until we make the Colorado Convoy in 2015!

    I just realized something...

    If you take every highway we took to the Dragon (70, 64, 57, 24, 40, 129) add them together, then divide that amount by 3 (The number of vehicles staying at the Colorado House) you come up with 128!

    Looks like we are missing one for next year... :)
