Well skeet honey, I got ya beat this time.

When I was a youngun (12 yrs old) my uncle Carl bought me a H&R 20 single shot shotgun.
When my Pop died (I was 15) the gun went missin. I thought maybe it had gotten mixed up with some of Pop's things my Mama "divvied" out, and thought it was lost forever.
My uncle Carl died in 2000, and I thought of that gun often.
Then a couple weeks ago I was helpin and olf friend out and we kinda got on the subject of guns, and he told me he had somethin I might be interested in.

He did in fact have my old gun, my Mama apparently had "divvied" it out to him for a few bucks. He gave it to me and didnt charge me a cent although I told him I would triple what he paid for it. It looked like the day I last seen it. Had my hash marks in it and all.
Im a sentimental fool and it made my year to have my old gun back. I'll probaly never shoot it...but I think it'll fit the lil Lilred when she turns 12, dontcha think??? lol
BTW, she caught her first fish all by herself the other day, kid went nuts. She is hooked now, on huntin and fishin. She is somethin else, lemme tell ya...anyway we got a pic with the cell phone...have to figure out how to get it online and I'll post it.
