Food Favorites for NRA Road Trip

We’ll post food stuff here if we have a chance while we’re at the NRA Convention in Phoenix, Arizona.

No food pix this time, but we did get this picture of R. Lee “Gunny” Ermey in the Glock exhibit while at the NRA Convention. The lineup for autographs was over a half-hour wait.
