Our daughter (Chrissie) told us yesterday that she's taking her youngest boy (Aaron - 16) to the Big Sandy Shoot down in Arizona later on this month. I'd heard of the shoot before, but really didn't pay much attention. But going to it was what Aaron wanted for his birthday, so Chrissie is taking him.
My wife and I are so proud of our daughter and her three boys we could bust! You see, a little over 3 years ago, when her husband died of a sudden, unexpected heart attack, Chrissie became a 38 year old widow, with three teenaged sons - Jake, Matt, and Aaron. It's been rough, but the four of them are coming though with flying colors! And they all love hunting, guns and shooting.
It came as sort of a surprise to me though that Aaron was so interested in machine guns. If I think back though, I myself might have been like that when I was 16.
Anyway, are there any other folks here that are planning on going to the Big Sandy Shoot? I did a Google search on it and it sounds like quite an event.:)

Loosing a spouse at an young age is a tough row to hoe. Sounds like she is doing great. I threw myself into my work and the fruits of my labor have not been as rewarding.
