Out to the Farm

My buddy, Owen, invited me to go shooting at the farm his parents own up in Sumner county. They bought about 60 acres a couple of years ago and plan to retire soon. They are renovating the old farm house to make it ready for them to live there full time. The deal is that we can out there and shoot skeet or targets as long as we check out the place for signs of vandalism or any storm damage.

We try to get out there about once a month, but if I can’t go Owen gets another buddy to tag along. Its a lot of fun to spend a day on the farm, but sometimes I can’t be gone from here that long. The drive up takes an hour and a half, and its easy to see 3 or 4 hours slip away while we are having fun. The next thing you know its getting dark, the day is gone, and we still have an hour and a half drive to get back home. Long day – but always a good time.

3 day weekend

Since I took my new job this will be my first 3 day weekend and I am very excited about it. I think I will take a short trip and go to Dale Hollow Lake and camp out and do some fishing. This will be a very welcome break from the daily grind of having 3 jobs and I think I deserve a break from the rat race. I can not wait to get to the lake, it looks like rain so I will not take the motorcycle but I am looking forward to some bike trips this summer too.
