I woke up about 8, played a few games and then got up. Ellen did the pet stuff while I went out to get the ammo for today out of the truck. That's when I found that most of it had gotten wet. I brought in 3 cases of 12 ga and 1 of 20. They were all soaked. Worse, we needed the 20 to shoot at 10:30.
So much for breakfast. We spent the time until leaving drying 20 ga with towels and spreading all of the other shells on towels on the bed. We just got enough done before it was time to leave.
Shooting wasn't much fun. The targets were good, but fairly stout. I'm still not shooting like I should. I only scored 70. It didn't help that it rained off and on. At least we were shooting under cover when the worst went by.
The course covered at least half a mile, maybe more. We started on station 5. The walk from 13 to 1 was LONG. When we got to 5 we got in the truck so the other people wouldn't have to wait so long.
When we were finished we went to Best Buy. I brought the wrong watch charger. They were sold out "at all stores". Fuck Biden. Ellen ordered one from Amazon. Then we went home. We didn't stay long. I figured out what we needed to clean the guns. Then we went to HEB for some garbage bags to put the ammo in. Then we stopped at Academy for the gun cleaning stuff.
When we got home I cleaned the guns while Ellen dried out boxes so we could put ammo in them. We did that until 5. Then we went back to the club.
I wanted to see the silent auction items, but they had put those away. We had their snacks, really dinner, there. It was pretty good. We left fairly soon to get back to ammo. I stopped at CVS for SalonPas. We worked for 2 hours cleaning up the remaining 3 cases of 12 ga and a half case of 20.
All of the humping of ammo, hiking the course, and standing while cleaning ammo has really hurt my back. I can't bend over without a lot of pain.
We didn't get done until 9. I spent about an hour surfing and then took a shower and went to bed.
All in all today sucked.
