    Wife OCed first time yesterday

    My wife finally bought a holster (Fobus paddle) for the Ruger SP101 I got her last Christmas. Before I even got home from work last night she had gone to Starbucks for her first open carry!

    New guy from SW WA

    I have been lurking on OCDO for a few weeks now and decided to OC for the first time today. First I took my two kids to our city park in town (right across from the police station I might add) and let them run around for about and hour. A large group was having a company reunion and I talked to...
