Twenty Thousand!!!

I just got home from work, a little deflated after being told that my request to carry at work was denied, only to find something amazing...this humble little blog hit 20,000 visits today!

I started this blog last year to help ladies learn about shooting and more specifically, concealed carry. I never thought that it would ever go the places that it has, that it would lead me to facilitate a chapter of A Girl and A Gun Ladies Shooting League, or that so many wonderful companies and individuals would want to offer their goodies for reviews and give-aways.  I had no idea that all of you would be interested in anything that I would have to say, much less subscribe to my posts, feeds, Facebook and tweets.

I can only say a sincere "Thank You" to each and every one of you. Thank you for reading, sharing and caring. Thank you for participating in the contests, drawings, and discussions. Thank you for your support of women in the gun community.

I would like to honor this milestone by following in the footsteps of a fellow blogger, my dear friend over at A Girl and Her Gun and offer a training class as a prize for one of my readers. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to pay for a training class that will cover you, no matter where you are, so right now we are limited to simply this, if you are in (or can travel to)  the Texas panhandle, leave a comment on this post and you will be entered into a drawing for a free beginner's handgun lesson. Drawing will be held one week from today - Valentine's Day (how about that?) from all entries.

It is small, but it is my way of saying thank you and giving back in some way to you, my readers. Remember, whether you win or don't even enter, training is THE most important factor in carry of any sort. It does no good to own a firearm if you don't know how to use it.

Be safe, be strong, and remember YOU ARE WORTH IT!
