    You get my email? Think the e-mails here are kind of flaky

    You mentioned in your pizza thread a place on El Cajon called "Ben's." Where on El Cajon? I lived 1 block off of El Cajon Blvd. for a year and a half and never saw it. Some info would be much appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.

    it was time to close up. the guard was closing the doors. I told him I never been to another war museum. he said most others are like this, but they don't have such a gun collection as this one. he started rattling off all the stuff they got, (on and on) I asked him what don't they have?! he said ummm... ummm....... a BAR, that's it! they got everything else. sooo.. being closing time, he offered to take me downstairs and show me the other goodies. going on display by the end of the year.

    20mm sniper rifle. note box magazine and scope.

    stlmem29.jpg

    sniper rifle, I think this is .50 cal. american made, they also have japanese and other knockoffs around the corner.

    Noticed that you mentioned Talkeetna in your user information.

    Really none of my business but wondering if it is a vacation spot that you visit often.

    Have you ever stayed at the Roadhouse ?

    I have only been there once and that was in January 1956. Uncle Sam thought it you be nice to send aa Airborne Regt. up there for some winter training.

    We bivouacked at Fort Rich and jumped near Talkeetna.
    Our Ride back to back to Ancorage was in C-124's.

    After a month on snowshoes we were in the best physical shape the Regt. had ever been.

    Re: the Roadhouse. Understand that a lot of old hippie types make the trek up that way every summer.

    Sure hope to get back someday.

    Once again, none of my business about your knowledge of Talkeetna.

    Just curious.

    Best regards, 11thcanopy

    How do you like the Argentine Colt Sistama? I acquired one a while back, mint condition, super tight and accurate as all get out. Almost as good as my 1943 Colt 1911A1..[:D]

    Yep - I've got a place on South Beaver Road - on the river - great place & great people.

    I only live there for a few weeks in the summers - usually July. This summer I'll be spliting our time in Costa Rica.

    The Roadhouse - sure - eaten there many, many times - Trisha Costello is a legend in those parts - and she's a sweetheart![:D]
