Flintlock by BlueDragonfyr; Powderhorn by Cayote44
Its big game season in Colorado, and although I am a nature watcher, I am also a hunter. My favorite method of hunting is with my .54 flintlock blackpowder muzzleloader. I have dropped two elk with it so far. Tomorrow I hope to make it three.
The rifle was custom made and presented to me along with other hunting items by some very special and wonderful people I had met online at a blackpowder message board. The powderhorn was also made for me as part of a barter by another member from the board.
While it is true that one must be cautious when meeting people online, I have been very fortunate then and now to have encountered some exceptional people whom I feel honored to share this piece of cyber space with. People I am honored to call friends. To all of my new friends here, thank you for allowing me to be part of your world as I share mine with you.

I wish you the best of luck. I also want to thank you for all the great pictures you put online. I have saved some and put them on my desktop to show to my family. I also wanted to note. I didn't always get game when I go hunting but the thrill of the hunt makes it worth it anyway. Best wishes to you and yours. Ray
Congratulations on your well deserved VIVI nomination, and good luck.

Hope you can make it 3. That is a really neat rifle, like the personalized powder horn. ~Deborah

Hello.......I have enjoyed reading your journal and seeing all of your photos. I hope you know that I have enjoyed your writings. Hopefully you can feel that I am one of your online friends because you are mine..........Take care
That is a nice muzzleloader. I prefer a nice AR-15 myself:)
I guess the elk prefer you carry a camera:)

It was my understanding that Dickidoo thought he owned 'Dorn's horn.'
