Hello from Ellis Co. Kansas... I have been actively participating in 1840 Mountain Man Rendezvous for about 5 years now, thanks to my husband. I primarily shoot a Lyman Great Plains .50 cal percussion long rifle, and a Pedersoli Kentucky percussion .50 cal pistol. We have a great time camping no matter the weather, and continue to improve our camp and shooting skills whenever possible. Chipmunk is what some call me at camp... they say I am always working at something just like a chipmunk... it is definitely not because I am short! Ha Ha
