rat-a-tat-tat

My parents had been after us all summer to go target shooting with them. But, summer’s always busy for everyone and we never were able to make that happen. They planned on going shooting this weekend and invited us along. We happened to be available, so along we went. Brian and Jake built an AR-15 last weekend, so we were going out one way or the other this weekend. The new gun is really nice–it’s quite fun to shoot. We took a bunch of other guns, too. My parents took a variety of targets (balloons, water bottles, clay pigeons) for us to shoot, so that was more interesting than shooting paper targets. It was a bit chilly this afternoon, so I think this will be it for the shooting until next spring.
