Man weekend went off pretty well actually. Friday was nice in that I just sat and watched Sci-Fi.
Saturday I got up and headed over to the range to do some shooting with Pickles and Cueball. Pistol I did really well, with a lot in center ring and nice groupings with my 9mm. I also took out my .38 Enfield and Munky's .38/.357, but not as well. They tended to shoot low and left. Plus, the .38/.357 kicks like a mother when it has .357 loads.
I even got to try out "The Judge", which was pretty nice actually. To be accurate though, you have to be fairly up close and personal.
Spent an hour getting the rifle sighted in but it is done. Had to put 35 rounds through it due to an error in distance messing up calculations on the scope. We thought we were at 25 yds at the start, but were really at 50. That many shots with a 7mm turned my shoulder to burger, but we got it done.
When we got done I treated Pickles and Cueball to Der Wafflehouse food and we went our seperate ways. I got home and put out the decorations and such for the trick or treaters. BTW, taking tiki torches and putting them up front adds ambience to your halloween. Everybody thought it was neat, though I only got a few kids. Offered the kids the choice of a candy bar or Yap Yap. They took the candy. Dammit.
Afterwards I went out to the bars for a bit. Saw some great costumes, including one lady who had a dynamite Poison Ivy costume. She was red headed and did a great make-up job around the eyes and some airbrushing to add Ivy leaves along her legs and abdomen, which she had blended in with some Ivy tattoos she had. Very cool stuff.
After a while I headed for home and crashed. Sunday was dedicated to cleaning the house up for the Munky's return. She ended up getting home at around 7, and after getting her some dinner she promptly fell asleep.
This week, detail carving on the sea dragon, pouring those and some butterflies for the
