My Gun

It's too bad I wasn't smiling for this picture, because I loved that gun. The boots were pretty cool,too. I re-read Annie Oakley's biography twice just to read the part about how she shot a squirrel between the eyes at the age of 7! I may look sullen in this picture, but that gun and those boots sure made me feel better. Ooh Wee!
