A fun Friday.........A few pics. Shooting…bass…Eagles
My Bride and I headed out late morning and drove over to a nearby town and ate lunch at great little place we enjoy. They specialize in some great New Orleans style dishes. Best Gumbo I have eaten North of New Orleans!!!
We drove over to a conservation area where there is a 100 yard outdoor range and I sighted in both of my main hunting rifles. There are also two lakes in the area and I fished some lily pad sticks and caught 11 small bass. The weather got weird while I fished. A big front came through and the temp dropped almost 20 degrees and the winds came up with a little rain so had to cut the fishing short...
At the far end of the conservation area, we watched a large eagle nest. Today there were half a dozen eagles in the area. I was really bummed that I did not have my 500mm zoom lens with us. So excuse the poor quality pics as I had to crop the pics down and lost a lot of resolution.
Hit a Dairy Queen on the way home for a snack. Just got home and settled in.... A short nap may be in my future !!
A good Friday here, how was your day ???

Good times. Good pics too.
Outstanding
Well, no shooting, no fishing, no eagles and no ice cream coma, but otherwise it was good. Thanks for asking.😎
Is he shooting left handed using his right eye?
Left hand…left eye……. I had taken off my glasses, cranked up the scope and was checking the group…
Wm81, I bet you could afford a wrong hand rifle (if you can find one), or do we need to make more donations? You never did call about my big $1 donation for the 10mm. I could make it $10 and breakfast...
I was half afraid to open this discussion!

I was afraid I would see pictures of William, shooting bass and Eagles.
At least there were no moon shots!
what a great day you had thanks for sharing it with us
I have to add the title at a glance had me wondering after Merlinnv 12 's comment I decide to go ahead with mine
why shoot brass eagles but no judging here 😁
Look great as what the Brits call a car mascot. Hood ornament here. I guess they are no longer legal, but that would be a great one.
I recently fired a left hand rifle. I have been shooting the other way for so long it just seemed too weird to try and change now !
The 87 Diner still has great food, if you are running through I would buy !
Maybe next year. HS reunion. 60th.
