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 ???

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.
