After church today, the whole family including Ray's dad went to redneck heaven. There is this place that you can shoot, do archery, fish, and canoe. Ray and his dad try and take the kids once a month. I have always opted not to go and enjoy my peace and quite at home. Today I took the plunge. It was fun. Everyone shot 22's at the gun range. I had never shot a gun before (maybe once with daddy). Ray and his dad were very patient with me and the kids. The kids are pros. They know the drill. Everyone stays behind the stand until the last person is finished shooting, never wave the gun around, SAFETY FIRST. After an hour the kids started getting bored so Ray took them down to the pond and they also shot the 410. Ray's dad stayed with me and taught me the fine art of shooting the 22 and pistol. It was fun. I was pretty good if I say so myself. Conlan said " You are better than daddy." Colleen was learning to work the canoe by herself. She thought she was a baton twirler with the paddles. She is too funny. One minute shooting a gun and while waiting for her turn she is practicing her model walk. She is the perfect girl.
Tomorrow I am off to Atlantic City with my mother-in-law. I will make sure I take pics!!!
