February 14th was the Valentine's Day Shoot. Dixie Creek Bob came all the way from Prairie City to watch Juniper Butch Cassidy open a can of Whoopass and take first place. Butch was hot proving once again that there is no substitute for hard work and much practice. Butch works hard for what he wins.
Whisperin' Wade fumbled a bit opening a door for Butch and Stonewood Kid to move up in the rankings, also proving once again that no one is infallible, and I should say, Wade had a big smile on his face nevertheless.
Kurt the Chef was there and presented the Posse with a magnificient stew which was quickly devoured at the lunch time break. Our Lady Helpers - Badlands Bertha & Diamond Willow kept things hopping and Connie, the Post Master General of Powell Butte, was much help at the unloading table. We had good company, thanks to Silver Dan who once again came up with one of his ingenious ideas for a shotgun target. Thanks Dan!
The Legend, Pinkerton and Ballarat Slow Lee were there doing their usual good, and Brownie Nash once again drove all the way from Hines. Silver Sage Outlaw made a target "Cowboy Cupid" with a Clay pidgeon inserted that served as a prize maker for some Valentine candy. Of course, he won the Big Heart box of candy, but so did Coyote Bob & Dixie Creek Bob. Durango Muldoon nosed out Cascades Annie by a few seconds. The weather tried hard to make us cold, but NO. No because of the warming stove made by Silver Dan, Pinterton and Coyote Roberto. Take that winter....Don't mess with the Pine Mountain Posse. More next time.
