From the beautiful "Shenedoah Valley of Virginia" .....
.... I bid you all .... HELLO!
I just found this place in browsing and thought I'ld join.
I am fast coming up on my 59th year.
I am a Native Texan but I have lived in Va. since the age of 5.
I do visit west Texas when I can.
Shortly after college I joined the VSP and retired 30+ years later as Master Trooper, I have since started working part time at an auto parts store.
I do requalify every fall with both revolver and pistol so I can carry concealed nationwide.
I have been a NRA member since about 1980 though for many years it was by "reupping" as I was a little cash strapped at times .... then about 8-10 years ago I joined for LIFE.

The situation will NEVER BE THE WAY YOU WANT, it WILL BE THE WAY IT IS. You must be FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO ADAPT and just "DEAL WITH IT".

Welcome from SE Michigan.
Never challenge an old man, because if you lose, you’ve lost to an old man, and if you win, so what?
