Come with me into the past:
"Wyatt? Wyatt Earp?"
"Yes'm,
and who are you?"
"Maryann.
I just got here."
"How?
Don't see no horse or carriage. An' the stage ain't due till tomorrow."
"I
came through a wormhole."
"A
what?"
"Uh,
I'm guessing you wouldn't understand. But now that I'm here, would you teach me
to shoot? I always wanted to be Annie Oakley."
"Who?"
"Annie
Oakley. You know, the woman sharpshooter. And boy could she ride a horse at a full gallop. I
haven't done that in too long."
"Never
heard of her."
"Okay,
but what about it? Will you teach me to shoot?"
"Meet
me at the OK corral."
Here is a list of other blogs that are in the blog hop. Enjoy the stories.

Okay, that's pretty awesome. And maybe just a little dangerous on the timing. Ha!
Thanks for stopping by, L.G. Glad you liked my little story.
I like some of those western guys and Wyatt Earp is one of them.
Did you bring back one of those guns from those days. Collectors love them!
Ooh, fun choice! (But if you're going to the OK Corral, I hope you took a bullet-proof vest with you.)
Good for you for keeping close to the 100 words. I didn't. The description of the hop said, "more or less", right? I chose "more".
Fun! Nice of Wyatt to agree to teach you!

D. G, I tried to bring a gun back, but they wouldn't let one on the plane. Some weird regulation. LOL
Susan, tough western guys, and gals, do not wear bullet-proof vests. We're above that. (Smile)
Nutshell, thanks for stopping by. I'll go see where you went on the hop.
What happens next? I would love to witness history.
Oh too funny you picked that day - which just happens to figure in one of my novels - a time traveling romance. Ha!
M. pax. In my dreams I become a sharpshooter, ride a horse like I did when I was 20, and I protect my Texas spread from all those bad guys who think they can take land away from a woman. (Smile)
Mshatch, I love these kinds of serendipitous moments.
That was great. Thanks for taking us back there with you. So, did you give him another option or did you just return home without becoming Annie?
Wow! Annie Oakley vs Wyatt Earp. How cool would that be! Id pay good money to see that. Thanks Mary forparticipating.
Nancy,in the fantasy I was Annie, but when I came back I went back to just being me. (smile)
Stephen, I never thought about going head-to-head with Wyatt, but you're right, what a terrific scene that would be.
This was so much fun, thanks to you and Laura and L.G. for starting it.
Hahah! Fantastic, but be careful, I hear they're not afraid to shot anything that seems weird :)
Wyatt Earp! Hope you survived.
