Painting my wagon..

What makes you a cowboy? An age old philosophical question.
As I am in Texas just now (1 more week) that question has taken more and more significance. And who am I to deny the true western spirit!

Step 1: Get a horse
....working on it..

Step 2: Greet people with: 'howdy!'
CHECK

Step 3: Wear a cowboy hat.
would love to but they are sooooo expensive!!

Step 4: Fire guns.
Maybe the most ulikely one for me to have fulfilled but... :) CHECK!
This past Sunday a few of us from Gateway were invited over to a friends house to try out a couple of his guns. Me, being the European, had never fired one of these... Im still against general gun ownership but have to admit that it was a fun experience.. (cant hit a moving target to save my life by the way)



So I may not be a cowboy yet, but trust me y'all.. Im fixin' to be one soon partner!

  1. Hey Ben,

    Alles goed?

    Het moet wel lachen zijn geweest om een paar schoten te lossen.
    Het is ook geen klein geweertje btw.

    Have fun en groetjes aan Hanah.
