Ellen and I visited the Gun & Knife Show Valentines Day 2026, yea I know I’m a romantic. I don’t know if I told you, but last fall Ron our son, wanted to know the best gun we had for waterfowl. There’s only one way to know for sure. So we took ALL of our shotguns, pistols & rifles, loaded them up in the truck with our rickety canoe and headed up for some late season waterfowl hunting. Our best spot is just across the Mississippi River from the Viking Trench the deepest most rocky part of the Mississippi. I think it’s 400 feet deep. The wind was blowing and just then a flock of wood ducks came over us. We both leaned over and picked up our guns, on the same side of the canoe, and ALL our guns, I think 34 of them, least the registered ones, fell out of the canoe into the Viking Trench 400’ feet below. Not a one of them survived. So we are in the process of buying all new guns, the old registered ones are 400’ feet under water. And THAT’S my story and I’m sticking to it!
