    I use it for my desktop wallpaper as well. Whenever I'm having a bad day, I look at that picture and wish I was shooting somewhere. Any day shooting, no matter if it's trap, skeet or sporting clays is better than sitting behind a desk!

    Just right click on the photo, and then "save image as". Then save it to your documents, or pictures. Then you can make it your desk top photo.

    I wish someone would put out a mural of it as wall covering. Would look great in a man cave!!

    Had lotsa fun at the Grand when it was there. Same drive time for me then and now in Sparta, but I liked the tented vendors a little different then.
    Can't live in the past, but I remember well. The lady at Perazzi who checkered the new stocks with a cigarette hanging out of her mouth. Mr. P and young Mauro, Evan and Lucio. How about Debbie?
    Cold weather brings out memories.

    Got the best Chicago dogs in the world there. The guy selling was at the split where the buildings ended and the tents began. Bulge.

    I bought stuff I didn't need just to be in the store, as a younger man of course.

    How about the Winchester twins (all 4 of them) autographing their posters in about 1983 ?

    Yeah, good ole Bob. Just one of the boys. Just trying to get by. Probably hired those sales people just so they had something to do that week. Never gave those "uniforms" or their looks a thought.

    A MARKETING GENIUS is what he was.


    I know it's a crummy picture. Took a photo of an old Trap & Field pic. Pretend it's August and 75 degrees. Use your imaginations. You REALLY want to use your imagination? Imagine you are 25 again. HA!

    I would like to have a nickel for every time one of us young trapshooters tried to get a date. Heck, I could have shot a couple days on that amount.

    Bought a winter shooting coat from one of Bob's girls when it was over 90 degrees out.

    On the other forbidden sit I offered to make cd's of Vandalia. I had 3 different ones. That was in 2007. Must have been a couple hundred pics. Bulge.

    Drive out Route 40 now and you'll never know the ATA was ever in Vandailia. So sad.
