Knob Creek Kentucky Machine Gun Shoot- Part 1

I spent last weekend, April 11-13 at Knob Creek Range Semi-annual Machine Gun Shoot  in Kentucky (semi-annual means it is held twice a year- I had to look it up - wasn't sure in the difference with bi-annual). It is held in April and again in October.

The event includes an all day machine gun shoot for club members and a number of gun rentals at the two separate ranges.

‘Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present .’

There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations. Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled. If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can’t buy.
