Day 69

When I got up there as a squirrel raiding the bird feeder.  I went out to get him, but he saw me and ran away before I could get off a shot.  I'll get him yet.

We went to Capitol today.  It was cloudy and windy, but not enough to be uncomfortable.  It looked like the targets were mainly those left over from the tournament.  The people in Oregon would have bitched about a fair number of them.  We did the pro course also.  It wasn't as interesting because they had used it for super sporting.  There was one long teal target that I couldn't hit for the life of me.  I went back later and shot it some more.  I finally figured out that I was giving it too much lead to the left.

I shot the CG pretty well.  It's a little long, perhaps half an inch.  Since it had been so long since we shot, much less shot Texas targets, it was hard to determine whether some of the misses were the gun or me.  I'm going with me.  After the shooting I threw the bumper for the dog.  She had been on the leash for a lot of the time because she wouldn't behave.  We let her off when we did the pro course and she did better.  She did a lot of retrieves, probably because she hasn't run in two days.

It was 2:00 by the time we finished.  So we just drove back towards home.  We stopped at Verizon to turn off the old Tab tablet.  You can't do that on their website.  We didn't replace it because they weren't having sales on anything.  By then we were really hungry, so we stopped at a burger place in the shopping center.  It was OK.

There was a Petsmart in the shopping center.  Lucy went nuts when we drove by.  So after lunch we stopped there to buy her a treat.  People there and at the gun club were saying what a good looking dog she was.

We skipped the post office because it was late.  We didn't get home until after 4:00.  We surfed and watched TV for the rest of the day.
