So I was trying to think of something to do with Tyler today while Monica went to her scrapbooking thing…  I have been telling Tyler stories about my fabled shooting abilities for years and decided we would go to the gun range, as Ty had never shot before.

When we get there I learned this is still a great country, as you don’t even have to fill out a form, just hand over your driver’s license and they’ll hand you and your 14 year old son a weapon and boxes of ammo, no problem.  They had just about every handgun I could think of, but since this was Tyler’s first time I wanted to get something reasonable.  I finally settled on a .357 magnum.  It’s a ridiculously overpowered gun, but it’s heavy which makes it easy to aim.

Pics show how we made out, two of the targets are from 50 feet, and Tyler is a natural.

The following email was sent to me today from my brother Rick:

Anthony and Madelyn are currrently having their first ever lemondade stand.  They have a little table and chairs; a nice sign (Lemonade, 25 cents); and Madelyn has been yelling “lemonade for sale” for about two hours to every car and every person she sees.

They have made over 15 dollars so far!

The best part:  I have watched two transactions so far.  Both times a dollar was given to Anthony; and he gave them a cup or two of lemonade.  No change was offered.

When I asked him about it he said;   “its okay, they didn’t want the change”.

I explained to him that it is customery to offer the change.

Anthony disagreed, saying “if they want the change, they should ask”.

Madelyn is in full agreement with Anthony on this.

I don’t know if they will have any repeat customers.

Update, the Del Sol is sold, being picked up tomorrow.

So, I had the Honda detailed to get ready to sell.  Some before pics:
