Shooting weekend



Went out Sat and Sun this weekend shooting . Took my daughter along and she got to do some shooting too. Looks like I found another shooting buddy. She got to shoot a Light weight AR 15 and a Glock 19 9mm as well as a few .22 rifles. The smile says it all.

Mini watermelon



Saw this at the store an just had to get it. I didn't know they were miniaturizing fruits like this. It's just a bit bigger than a softball.

Winter Camping





Last weekend I got to get out for a quick snow bound camp trip. traditionally known as winter camp(kinda late this year) friends and I have done this every year since 1988 or so. Tough going for the trucks with the snow wet and heavy but we made it.
I went with the minimalist tent again this year using a poncho and tent poles to cover me. I added some straw and a blanket for my dog to stay warm and used a decent sleeping bag myself. It was a bit windy , but not too bad temp wise.

April 1

Guess the jokes on me this morning. I knew my truck starter was going bad, but don't have a day off till tomorrow. I am all set to replace it, but needed to get to work (early ) today. It figures the starter decided to quit . I crawled under there in my work clothes and tried to coax it to start by tapping with my hammer. No go. Between crawling back and forth from top to bottom I got wet of course . (had to be raining today) Ieven used a poncho lay on.
Next I went inside to call a friend for a lift . In the process I lost the hammer , but got an o.k. for a ride. So I make my self some coffee to wait. Now I seem to have lost the creamer. Hmmm, is this Monday or Tuesday. So I sit here wet and creamer less(without a hammer) waiting on a ride who hopefully can take me to work (late) . Hope everyone else's April Fools joke isn't as cruel. : )
P.S. anyone got some creamer?
