Day 2339

 We woke up about 8:30, played games,and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  We didn't shoot, so after breakfast we just surfed.

A little before noon the Amazon packages came.  Ellen managed to order a watch stand, not a charger.  She got the job of returning it.  Allegedly the right thing will show up tomorrow.  The other package contained a replacement for the time/temp display that died.  It looks nice.  Better yet, it talks to the existing transmitter, so I didn't have to install a new one.

I was after noon when the display was installed.  We drove to Portranco to turn in the Amazon purchase.  On the way we stopped at Mickey D's for lunch and HEB so I could get drinks, drugs, and a Baby Yoda figurine.  Then it was off to the club.

We stopped at CG and Ellen got instructions on how to remove her forearm.  Then we went to a Pilla store and got her a lens.  I got a lens case.  Then we went to Briley to get some choke tube boxes.  We went to the temp vendor area.  There were lots of Pilla vendors there.  I bought a couple of more lenses.  Then it was time to go shoot.

I was pissed about our station assignment.  We are at the far end of two of the courses.  That means we'll walk them twice.  Shit.

Ellen shot pretty good today.  I sucked worse than I have in years.  I hit less than 50% of the targets.  On one pair of stations I hit one bird over 7 pairs.  Fuck Fuck Fuck.  I almost quit.

We came up on one station that had 6 squads ahead of us.  We waited there for over half an hour.  Luckily that was the only one.  It still took over two hours to shoot 66 birds.  At least the weather was OK, partly cloudy but with a gusty wind.

We went back to the clubhouse for dinner.  It was really good.  There was an open bar and BBQ.  We started eating at an empty table, but some other people joined us.  They were fun.  One lady grew up in Spokane.

We went home about 7.  We surfed a little and then took showers.  We have to shoot at 8 tomorrow, so we'll have to get up before 7.
