Not terribly recent. In fact I am amazed to realize that this picture is now over ten years old. Everybody in the picture is a registered member of this BBS, though a few don't post much, if at all.  OMG. I'd forgot all about that meeting. That's me way over on the right and then again, below.  Alan

 These two shots were taken four years ago and three years ago respectively, within a week of being exactly a year apart. The location is the same, in N. W. Illinois. One year great weather and a good hunt, the next year froze our butts off, literally walked through knee high snow later that same day, but still had a good hunt. I am the older guy, now 71, and that's my #2 son with me in both photos. My gun is a 1910 Max Fischer 16 gauge hammer gun that is one of my favorites, his gun is a 1895 J P Sauer 16 gauge hammer gun with Krupp barrels even on such an early gun.

A little late to the party.. truth is is rarely divulge personal photos. this one with gunmaker Martin Hagn at my work bench. I turned 60 last March.  Shooting a vintage S&W in rough country.  And with Stockmaker James Tucker in my shop.

This is me and my best buddy with some wild prairie partridge. Lost him last month to illness; he was only 8. Life hands us a bitter pill sometimes. We are lucky to have board members here showing us how to take it; Bill, Tony, Dave, Miller,..........and many others, thanks. Clair

Well since Steve broke the ice and, because there's a gun in the photo, here is another + me at age 40. Truly a special moment for me and an opportunity to thank Steve again for his generous hospitality last September when I was in town for a little fishing. That's Steve's custom A.H. Fox which has inspired many in one of his excellent books, "Fine Gun Making: Double Shotguns".

My Field Bred Springer Jhenn and I last year. with one of my trusty Fox guns  Th eonly member of the Kabul,Afghanistan Southwest Asia Chapter of the AH Fox Gun Collectors Association (LIFE)  After my return from A-stan in 2003.  With some of my Afghan counterparts, trolling the mountains of Patika Province.  sort of a snapshot of my life in the past 9 years. Kind of interupts the hunting prospects.

From what my son tells me of Paktika Province, it is sometimes hard to tell WHO is the hunter.... Glad you're back where that stuff is very clear!
I always ask my son if he's seen any chukars recently in Afghanistan--it's become a joke between us. He always tells me they just won't come into his laptop. (He never tells me anything at all about operations, just food, people he works with --nicknames only--and PT plans for the day. Whatever intel people do, they DON'T talk about it).
