On this day in 1842, Mexican general Rafael Vasquez, with 700 soldiers, occupied San Antonio.

Unable to raise an army in time to resist this invasion, the Texans surrendered and evacuated the town without a fight. Vasquez raised the Mexican flag over the town and declared Mexican laws in effect. On March 9 the Mexican army abandoned San Antonio and began to withdraw to Mexico. The incident was part of a series of raids and counterraids in 1842 as Mexico sought to recover Texas and the Texans fought to maintain their independence.

When we had our shop in Coeur d'Alene, it was amazing how many people over the years came in moaning and groaning about the deer or elk that got away because they hadn't popped a cap or two before loading their rifle and going out on the hunt.   
You're not the first and you surely won't be the last, if that's any consolation. 
But you are the one that was captured on film doing that.   But the pistol did go off.
Good job on the videos, quite entertaining.

I'm still working on cutting a piece off the playing card every time with my hawk. Maybe if I accomplish that, then I can work on cutting a string with the hawk.

Enjoyed the video mark
 Looks like a lot of fun right there!

Man Mark, it looks as though you're throwing those hawks a long way. I don't think I could throw those hawks that far. But you did a good job bud.
