So, AAR-wise, Saturday night...   :embarrassed:

Fuk me, we're two nights in, then SATURDAY HAPPENS.   We hiked that fuckin' hill Friday - and it did suck.  Both up AND down.  The view on top, on that ledge, was well worth it, but fuk me, does it take it out of you.  @Matt.Cross plan worked out perfect - "We hike that hill early, get that High Angle out of the way, of sorts, and FRICK!  We get to lay down and do nothing on Long Range!"  He was right as rain, on that.  We layed down and did Long Range on Saturday, but DAMN!  Saturday night, I let loose.  I went Full-On GREG on Saturday Night.  @edgecrusher    Gun Pusher John showed up - and I didn't say this part - I think it was Eric @Cunuckgaucho ambushed me Day 1 and layed a bottle of Jameson on the driver's seat of my truck.  Took hours, but I found it.  Well...  all that came out on Saturday night...

@JBMatt had some bottle of Salted Caramel Whiskey...  I had a bottle of Jameson's.  When we got back from the Long Range site, we got into the whiskey.  Outta nowhere, I think it was @MikedaddyH brings out this bottle of Henessey.  FUUUUUUUCK me.  Gun Pusher John shows up after it's dark...  Someone (I think it was Eric, again) brings out this bottle of "KRAKEN" black spiced rum...   this was a recipe for disaster.

Skip, the Ranger Master for Dillon Aero shows up with his wife, beer is flowing, whiskey is disappearing quickly, and NOBODY is shooting the 450-yard illuminated night target.  Alright, I'm gonna fire this up, and get shiit moving.  I grab the .260 and a full mag, lay waste to the 450 - and it's going again.  Like re-starting a campfire.  Flame is burning again, people shooting targets, 200, 250, 450 all illuminated.  @Matt.Cross FINALLY gives up his .45ACP pistol wisdom on a 200-yard target - and people start shooting the 200-yard target with a pistol - at an illuminated target, at NIGHT.  I grab the pistol, do what was told to me, and shoot the 200 - hit it first shot. Theeeeeen...  I angle over towards that 250.  Matt says, "No WAY, Brother!  You can't apply the SAME THING and hit that 250!!!"  He was right - I didn't apply "that same thing."  He told me what I needed to hit the 200, so I applied "a little more," and made the shot.  I hit that 250-yard target on the first round.  I walked away, set the pistol down, and acted like I MEANT TO DO THAT SHIIT!...  :banana:

That's the kicker - if you make a lucky shot...  you STOP right there, walk away, and act like you MEANT that shiit!...   You WALK AWAY COCKY - LIKE YOU MEANT TO DO THAT...    That's a hard act to follow for a lucky shot in the first place, so you TAKE those lucky shots, and just WALK...  Like you ALWAYS do that...   :laffs:

I'm telling you, I CORKED that 250 with a pistol, first round, too...  At night... A$shole, I know...  but that was pure luck...  :bitchslap:

So, we progress into the whiskey night...  Well, we progressed into the whiskey, Jameson, salted caramel whiskey (DAMN was that good!), that damn Hennessey, and that crazy Kraken black spiced rum...  and we were running out of firewood.  Me and Kate (Ron's daughter) left in the Big Dumb Dodge on a Firewood Recon... Driving slow through the desert, looking for gathered wood from washes - it gathers in the corners of a wash, where water had to turn a corner in a wash - it's almost ALWAYS there.  We were striking out  - and then we found the Holy Grail...  old fence posts and an old teletphone pole about 6 feet high.  Shiit, whadda we do?...  BACK TO CAMP FOR THE CHAINSAW!!!   :lmao:  We turned that Big Dumb Dodge around and pined it back to camp.  Grabbed the chainsaw, and we hauled absolute ASS outta camp, saying we found the motherlode.  Assheads in camp thought we were crazy - until we came back.  We dragged more wood out of the back of the truck...   I grabbed that section of old telephone pole out of the truck and slammed it down by the firepit like a UFC fighter slamming someone to the mat - in normal life, I'd never be able to do that, but I was fueled by a BUNCH of different whiskeys...   :banana:

We had some WILD fire that night, too - but it doesn't end there.  The whiskey (and Hennessey and Kraken) caught up with me, eventually.  It certainly caught up with Gun Pusher John, too - he bought a chair from Kate that night, after he barfed all over it.  My experience was much difference, though.  No Barf.  Craziness, instead.  I "decided" it was time for a Sobe Bomb, once the Jameson bottle was empty - glass bottle, metal screw-on cap - fire - spare gas...   Gun Pusher John punched too big of a hole in the metal cap, soit was less-than-perfect, but it was still bitchin...   I don't know how I didn't fall in the fire emplanting that bastard, but I didn't.  GPJohn has the video, and I need him to send it to me to post up here.  All kinds of audible warnings, prior to...  "Tom, NO!  DON"T DO IT!"  yada yada.  "YOU'LL DIE AFTER YOU CATCH ON FIRE!!!"  Okay...   I'm posting this, so I'm still here, not on fire...   :lmao:

After that Sobe Bomb, things went south, quick.  I think I drank the entire camp out of whiskey, then I tried to combine spiced rum and Hennessey to that...  I had a Gravity Attack...  I went down, by some reports, I went over backwards and my head hit a big piece of wood that I'd drug back before.  @JBMatt was certain that I was fucked up for life, and we'd need medics - he said I hit that thing that hard, right on my mellon.  In reality, I don't think I hit that log/railroad tie/whatever it was that hard - I just stumbled a little, tripped backwards, something stopped me from a somersault - and I was back up.  No Blood, No Foul.  I was fine - minus Gravity fucking with me.  So, 30-ish kinda minutes goes by, and I have ANOTHER Gravity Attack - this time, I'm not stopping myself from going face-first in the dirt...  Called it, right then, dragged my ass to the bunk in the camper, and that was the night.  DONE. 

That was a vicious night, by that fire.  Rough.  That was a desert party like no other. 

The "Sunday Story and Long Range Day 2" is coming up.   One comment I remember from Saturday night was when Kate and I got back to camp, on the firewood hunt, when we found the stuff out there that needed cut.  I V8-Dodge-screaming-318-thunder slid to a screaming dust-filled full-brake non-ABS stop back into camp, leaped out of the truck and yelled "I NEED THE CHAINSAW!" while Kate was taking the small shiit that we found out there before, out of the bed of the truck...   Someone in camp said - and I barely heard it - "Who brings a chainsaw with them out in the desert?...?

THIS GUY...   :banana:

 

1) come on @MikedaddyH Hennessy? Lol

 

2) @98Z5V whiskey LOVES to put gravity against you it’s one reason I quit drinking it! One night I accidentally drank a bottle of Jim beam, I was out side smoking a cig with my x’s cousin when gravity attacked me and I stumbled off the 8’ rock retaining wall onto the cement pad for the exposed basement, I’m lucky I was as drunk as I was cuz I landed like a wet noodle as I’m sure you did too

Tom was hugely entertaining. He throws the bottle full of gasoline into the fire and tells us all to run. We run. He then backs up to the fire talking ish to us for running. 

 

Honestly, proned out at the firing line under the full moon just BSing with matt and tom, taking shots at the 450 between stories and sipping on a modelo was an epic moment. Little life snapshot that I wont ever lose.

I must get Gun Pusher John to send me that vid he took of the whole affair.  Once I get it from him, it'll be in here.  :lmao:
