We’re about two weeks out from the 2010 Boomershoot, which is organized by gunblogger Joe Huffman and more or less in my backyard. Believe it or not, I’ve yet to attend. I know, I know. Criminal.

I am planning to attend as a spectator this year. I’m not sure if The Inconvenience and Girl Child will also be along, but we’ll see.

The mystery visitor, who will be in town for the same event, is none other than the talented Mr. Oleg Volk. YAY!

A couple of notes for those converging (or considering it) on my neck of the woods for Boomershoot:

I’d be happy to help y’all with information about lodging or Moscow in general, which is about 45 minutes away from the shoot. Just comment or send me an email: laurel@politicsgunsandbeer.com

Please do get in touch if you’ll be around, so I know who to look for!

Also, shameless plug: The Sister and Grumple Dan are the owners of VJ’s BBQ in Moscow. Joe’s wife, Barb, ran into The Sister at the grocery store the other day, and they partook of some of their excellent BBQ shortly thereafter. (I’m particularly fond of the pulled pork, and potato salad.)

Anyway, with so many gunnies coming to town, I figured now was a good time for a shoutout and to point out that not only are they an open-carry-friendly establishment, they actually offer a 10% discount to open carrying customers. So, stop in, introduce yourself, show off your hardware and try the best BBQ on the Palouse!
