Had a good day, 10/11/08

[LastManOut]

Saturday started out with breakfast @ Emmaus Diner. I left the tip, my friend picked up the tab.

We drove to my place and setup the range.

He brought a replica .45 caliber M1A1 (?) Thompson sub-machine gun and a Springfield 1911-A1. I pulled out my replica 5.56 mm Vietnam era M-16 (AR-15). Between us we exhausted about 350 - 400 rounds at some active targets (aerosol cans, two porcelain washing machine panels, swinging plates, golf balls, TV trays). After policing up our brass and holey trash, we sat around a bit in the after-glow, shootin' the shit and enjoying the last whiffs of gun powder.

Had a light lunch and took a nice nap with the windows open and the cool breeze blowing through the house.

Woke up about 3:00 and took an nice ride on my trike (motorcycle). About 6:30 I stopped for a great steak sandwich and a half-a-beer in Macungie @ Pub-on-Main.

It don't get much better than this.
