We got up this morning and drove to Kerrville. We were there about 9:45. The rest of the people were there and just starting to get things set up. Everyone was moving pretty slow, so at first not much was happening. I think the weather played a part. It was cool and a little rainy all day.
We unpacked all of the prizes and goodies that had been shipped. We used the goodies to make up the goody bags. They included some really nice leather shooting bags. When we unpacked the pictures for the auction there were two with broken glass. One was 1.5 ft by 3 feet and the other was three feet square. I volunteered to get them fixed.
I called a framing place in Kerrville and they agreed to fix them right away. When I got there I told them it was for a charity event. They replaced both pieces of glass in half an hour and only charged me $50 with tax.
When I got back it was time to set up the course. Dave and I went over and set up all of the machines (10 stations) and tested them. The machines were in terrible shape. They were all rusty from the bio targets and looked like they hadn't had maintenance in years. We mainly changed machine settings as we really didn't have a vehicle for hauling them around.
When we finished it was time for dinner. We checked into the hotel and showered first. I wasn't really very impressed with the hotel. It was a so-so room at a pretty high price. Lucy liked sleeping on the bed with us though. They didn't have breakfast though, which pissed me off. I like waffle machines.
We went to dinner at the Mexican place. I had shrimp enchiladas. They were great. After that it was go to bed because we had to get up early the next day.
