What do a .44 Magnum, a .22 Rifle and a .410 Shotgun have in common?

Hunter’s safety class for Whitni!  My mom and I took Hunter’s Safety this weekend at the River Raisen Sportsman’s Club in Blissfield.  It was 8 until 5 on Saturday (a TON of videos), along with a tree stand and bow hunting demonstration, and ending with some shooting oportunities, which is where I got the opportunity to shoot a .44 Magnum.  And then 12 until 6 on Sunday.  With the test (which by the way I got 100% on), and then training on when to shoot and when to not shoot, gun safety, and then indoor target shooting with .22 rifles and outdoor Trap shooting with shotguns (I used the .410).   I did really well on the gun safety, and the .22, however not so good with the .410.  My mother hit one of the trap out of 5, I only hit 0.  Yes folks that’s  Zero!  However, my target shooing with the .22  I had 4 out 5 shots within only a cm of the bullseye (at 50 feet).  So that was pretty cool.

Other than that our weekend was pretty quiet.  Peter is on his way to Chicago for a couple of days for work, and will get back on Wednesday.  Then I will be leaving around 4 on Friday to drive down to Evansville for our friend Emily’s Wedding Shower.  Should be a good time.  Hopeing to see some of our fantastic friends!!!!  Things seem to be going better all around!  Whoo!
