Did it cool down any for you to shoot those targets? I sure hope so.

No not really.
Still hitting 90+ all week.
Wind was blowing today, sand getting kicked up.
Things were going good until I got stung on my right hip by what felt like a hornet. I know what that feels like
I was just pulling the trigger when the sucker struck.
Anyway if not for the bees I would have stayed and shot my pistol.

My problem is rain. One to two inches coming today so the revolutionary challenge may be out for me as our 100-yard target is on the other side of the creek which is roaring and impossible to get across. Will take a number of days for it to get low enough to cross again. Years ago, we blew the engine in a jeep pickup crossing it and dunking it too deep. We'll see.

Is driving through it the only way you have to cross over?

Yep. Only way across. We made a foot bridge once and that survived in the creek for about a year or so. Usually it is easily passable with a 4-wheeler however so far this year has not been usual.

Have you been getting more rain than the Lowville area, Dave?

Don't know. I am about 150 miles SE of Lowville. I am on the Penciltuckey border.

My bad, Dave, I thought you were from OSwego not Owego.

No problem. Happens all the time. Once when I was coming back through customs into the US on a business trip from Toronto they argued with me that it was Oswego and not Owego and that my license was wrong. That was interesting.

That's some good shooting, fellows!
I've been getting some of the yard & household chores out of the way here so haven't had the chance this month to get out to the range - yet. We'll see how next week works out.

Haha, I can't believe I did that. And I did the same thing on the bullseye target.🤔 I'm not sure Kees, but I'm thinking it's tied in with this GOLDEN YEARS stuff. Both targets were shot the same day, I think, pretty sure, oh brother.
