http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2013/03/spring-sprung-and-e-celebrated.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Sunday, March 3, 2013. Spring Sprung and We Celebrated! The first of March always calls for the big celebration here at North Ranch. Yesterday was La Fiesta Days and the celebration started off with the annual PARADE. Leading off the parade was none other than the famous "North Ranch Desert Line Dancers"! Providing the music, from her beautiful Mustang Convertible, was Jacqui, one of our shooting buddies. They were gone on their way! Aw yes, one of my favorite things here in the p...

Mike and Pat's Travels. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. OK, here we go! It has been a long winter. Due to medical problems, we regretfully will not be able to make it up to our summer place in Custer, SD. this summer. We will both really miss the beautiful Black Hills. We have spent every previous summer in the hills since 1995. If you wish to read the entire careingbridge journal of our medical activities for the winter, you may go to:.

Mike and Pat's Travels: January 2013
http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Wednesday, January 30, 2013. I’m Back in Business…. I came right back with “I’ll clean your gun”! I do kinda enjoy cleaning guns but don’t tell her. It is great therapy and gives me a chance to really get acquainted with all the parts and pieces of the gun and how it functions…. “Bonding”. As my Friend JRoger says! This picture was taken on Jan 25,2012. After a lot of looking and shopping my Reloading Press finally came. Here I am unpacking it last January. There, I have the powde...

Mike and Pat's Travels: Time to CHANGE….
http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2013/03/time-to-change.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Wednesday, March 6, 2013. Time to CHANGE…. Most of this week, so far, has been used up changing over to shooting 9mm bullets and giving the 1911, .45’s a rest for while. Sunday after Church, we stopped and picked up the mail and the 9mm barrel for Ms. Pats Glock had arrived. That was what I was waiting for.the barrel for my Glock had arrived a couple weeks ago. I got up and started loading early the next morning when I was all rested up and fresh. I loaded 100 rounds and at 11...

Mike and Pat's Travels: Think SNOW !
http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2014/07/think-snow.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Saturday, July 26, 2014. As I sit down here in this sweltering heat in Arizona, I can’t help but think of what happened the day we planned on leaving Custer, SD. last Oct…. A real blizzard. Needless to say we had to delay our departure a few days. Here are a few pictures of the predicament we were in, trying to get south. That is good friend Gregg digging us out. It was 114* in Phoenix last week and 112* here at Congress…. Talk about two extremes! July 26, 2014 at 6:13 PM. July 27...

Mike and Pat's Travels: Happy ST. Patrick’s Day !!
http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2013/03/happy-st-patricks-day.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Happy ST. Patrick’s Day! ST Patrick’s Day has special meanings for us…. A true Irish Blessing. Plans that we will be grateful for the rest of our lives. That two day visit turned into two months and we became family. We had just purchased our first house in 16 years and with Rollie and Gina’s help, it turned into our “Dream House”. A few days later we took them on their first 4-wheeler trip in the desert. Sure you can", Rollie tells her, "Piece of cake"!

Mike and Pat's Travels: I knew it!
http://mikepatstravels.blogspot.com/2013/03/i-knew-it.html
Mike and Pat's Travels. Wednesday, March 13, 2013. Some of the gals at the ladies shooting class yesterday were actually looking for “SHADE”! I heard one of them say “Wow, it's hot! The next thing I wanted to do is install some of these new “HI VIS” fiber optic front sights. This helps immensely in fast target acquisition. They are really neat! As you can see in the previous picture, both our slides have the new sights installed. Ms Pat is now going to finish up the pillow shams, that is if she can get M...
