Well, I'll tell you. Had a nice Christmas. Got a new mini-video camera. Will be seeking out some reactive targets in the near future.
Then went to the ranch for a couple of days of quail hunting with Daughter Number One. Only got one quail, though. They were few and far between, and nearly all were flying at more than 50 yards away. Also fired off my new piece for the first time. Very fun.
Then picked up my new lenses, still getting used to them. Turn my head the wrong way and the world goes a bit swirly.
Then took Daughter Number Two out to the Indian Casino today. She won a few bucks, I won a few bucks, the Sainted Bride lost more than we won. Still, a good time was had by all.
And in what's left of my vacation (the next five days), I plan to do some reloading and a little bit of movie watching. Picked up three DVDs at Borders yesterday. This one, this one, and this one.
I've seen the first, it's spectacular and I wish to own it and see it again.
The second, I've seen part of the remake with Kirk Douglas, Jason Robards, and Darren McGavin. Though, in reality, no fiction can beat the true story.
The third? Never seen it yet, but I've wanted to for a long time.
Anyway, that's what's happening here. How about you?
Iz out!

I was getting worried...hadn't heard if you made it through Christmas alive.
Sounds like a nice vacation you are having. Sure wish I could take some time. I tell ya, blowing ALL your vacation in January makes for a long year! But it was worth it.
One of these days I'm going to make it out your way and I am going to insist that you take me to the ranch. Sounds like a wonderful place.
Hope you have a Happy New Year!
I've worn bifocals since I was in eighth grade (I read waaay too much), and tried progressives. I spent two years trying to get used to them before I went back to regular bifocals. Then I found out that, while people who've always used progressives can switch to bifocals, people who've always used bifocals can't switch, because they've gotten used to that line that separates distance & close.
