Ladies, eat your hearts out


Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. Knocked every one down!

We had a great time at Turcotte today. It was the first time we've ever been out there, and man, is it nice! I have three new boyfriends there: Jim Brown, the head guy, Dudly, a charming retired sherriff, and Andy, a regular. Andy even let me fire a clip from his .45 1911! The guys said I looked like a pro, but I felt like a cartoon character.

Mike and I were about to pack it up and get some lunch, but the lovely Boy Scouts of America were having a hamburger cookout after a morning of working on their rifle merit badges. They invited us on up, and that was the best damn grilled burger and baked beans I've ever put in my mouth. While we were eating, the Scout Master asked me where I "learned to shoot like that," and that he "Never wanted to make me mad." He was probably just making conversation, but it sure was encouraging.

Refreshed, we decided to keep on going until we ran out of bullets. It was such a pretty day that we went thorough 350 rounds before we knew it. And now we're home, getting ready to clean. Not nearly as exciting as the other part.
