Here is some good advice!

Get outside!

I spent the morning on the computer doing work and started to get a killer head ache. So I grabbed my camera, threw on a jacket, and put some boots on and went to Ringwood Manor, a state botanical garden. I parked the truck and just walked around for an hour or so by myself. It was nice and cool out, and I was out away from civilization, listening to nature. Its really relaxing, and certainly helps you gather your thoughts!

More people need to step away from the television & computers, and really get out there!

BTW Does anyone shoot Skeet? The park I was at has a skeet range further down the road called Thunder Mountain. Its $17 for 25 shots, instructor, and they even lend you a shot gun if you need one. I'm going to clean up my Remington and probably take it up sometime during the week.

Yeah I have a Trap 12 gauge Weatherby pump shotgun that I use when down in the Kenilworth park area. Still have a case of Remington shells that made for trap shooting. Would like to go with someone from this area.

I haven't been trap shooting in a while but I did sporting clays last year and I SUCKED. What's odd is that I am pretty good with pistols and rifles, but with a shotgun I just can't put it together.

I've never been trap shooting before, but I'll go if we get a group together. I can throw some money to whomever lends me a gun, I can pick up ammo before hand if I know what to buy.

LOL...anyways. Good advice. It usually does the same thing for me when it's warm out and I can take the top off the vette or the T/A and go cruising.
