Very nice bayonet for the rifle. I don’t recall seeing a ‘peep’ or aperture sight on any military rifle until the P-14/17 came along. I know my scores went up when I shot the US Enfield; I liked that rifle a lot. But like many of them, went away to fund other purchases. I’m glad to see you held onto yours.

My day. It was full of FAIL!

I write, because I know you can understand.

I have a week long thing in NM that starts at 8:00 tomorrow morning. I am currently sitting in my la-z-boy in MD having spent over 14 hours in Philadelphia Int'l trying to get a flight out. Cancellation after cancellation, endless thunderstorms, a near riot by a gate full of Miami-bound Cuban Americans who were strung along for 6 hours before canceling their flights. I read an entire paperback. Texted my DH a bajillion times, walked speed laps up and down the whole airport. Stalked a bunch of flights trying to get stand by. More FAIL!!

Finally I call the special 800 number for refugees and get told that if I want to fly out of Philly, its not going to happen before Tuesday! Hah! I'm going out of BWI tomorrow at 0-dark-thirty but I'm missing half of my first day at my very important event.

Grrr.... the alarm is set for 0300 tomorrow.
