I had some really good contacts today. We ate breakfast at the St. Joe McDonalds. A couple people really stared but no comments. There were quite a few people there. I had my G23 cross draw with a light attached. It was VERY visible. Next stop was Circle K on Fulton where a clerk took a long look. After shooting at Red Brush we stopped at the Newburgh Walmart. I was quick in and out and only a couple in line behind me got a look. We stopped at the Thorntons on Boonville Hwy for a potty break and soda. A dude getting in line behind me took a glance and then long look but didn't say anything. Next was grocery shopping at Wesselmans on Weinbach. The butcher walked past me, looked at my piece, smiled and said hi. The girls in the deli also saw it as I ordered some sliced ham. I got into a good conversation with the check-out guy about the robbery at the Pollack ave. Wesselmans. He said they hadn't had any extra training about what to do if it happened at their store. I told him my wife asked if I would shoot in the same situation and I had responded "No, not unless someone was stupid enough to approach me as I was on the floor covering her." He asked what I was carrying and I said a Glock 23. He asked about the caliber then said, "Yeah, my brother has the full size 22. I'll have to get a permit." I told him Indiana is "shall issue" and to get going on it. I told him I had met the "zoo guy" and as a result I was OCing all the time now. After a stop for an allergy shot (nobody noticed) we went to Alles Brothers furniture in Mt. Vernon. I know the owner pretty well and as I tried out a rocker I said, "Is this seat scratch-proof for when I sit down with this on" pointing to my gun. He laughed. As we got into our neighborhood we stopped to talk to a lady walker that we know. She talked about biking and walking in good and bad places in Evansville. I told her about TF and my ride of a few weeks ago and the lady we had seen who said she felt safe riding behind us. She said, "Do you carry a GUN?" I said I sure did then mentioned the zoo incident and an incident that happened to me years ago that led to my first license. I said if I'm ever in a bad situation again without defense I deserve what I get. All in all a really good day. A few more people saw an open carrier and a couple heard about TF.
