The day after Christmas was the first day in a few days that nobody was at our house. We have to admit that we were a little lonely. We slept in until almost 11:00 am (long night to Spokane) and when we woke u pto an empty house we decided to get Joe's gun (his Christmas present - a Ruger 10/22 rifle) and go shooting out behind Spring Valley. We got there and made our slow and scary way down a back road to get away from the whole worl and find a place to shoot!
We found our usual little spot and got the gear out and began shooting. We found ourselves shooting giant sn
ow piles on trees until they fell down! That possibly sounds lame, but it was REALLY FUN!! We plinked through about 550 rounds before heading home! We also brought some jugs to shoot and a paper target. I get so excited when I can see that I shot something! At one point I aimed for the lid of a jug and blew it clean
off! I tend to do this little "hooray" boogie dance when I hit something, Joe loves it!! Joe still shows me up though, he seems to be the KING of hitting things. Tonight he unloaded 24 rounds unto a jug and we counted 23 holes! When I unload into a jug, I usually have like 5-10 holes in it! Except for light bulbs...I can blow them to smitherines in 25 rounds! Hehe..we really have a lot of fun with the gun, and it gives us yet another excuse to be outdoors and to have a blast!! Afterwards we went and got pizza and watched some movies! Overall, a great night, just us! xo
