My parents are leaving this month to go to Zambia (not Zimbabwe) as medical missionaries. They'll be gone most of a year, so my brothers and sisters (and their kids) are all visiting the old homestead this week. Diana and I, and the mutt, went up on Sunday, got bac

He's a good instructor, so the result was that several tin cans got thoroughly ventilated and we had a good time. One thing did occur to me: we fired about 20 rounds from the shotgun and 50 rounds from a 9mm pistol--some of it rapid fire, obviously not hunting--and no one called or came to investigate.
We also watched North Carolina trounce Michigan State, played a few board games, ate, navigated around the kids, and listened as Jon and James played guitar. Good times.
