I was invited today to go out to the desert and do some shooting. Here in California there is empty land in the desert that doesn't belong to anybody and is under the supervision of the Bureau of Land Management. People can go out there and just hang out. Who knew? I don't personally have any guns but I have done some shooting before and the people I was with had plenty of guns; rifles, pistols, and shotguns. I was not much of a target shooter, but I had some success shooting trap. Then we went to the Bass Pro Shops and had some friend fish. Today guns, tomorrow communion.

Wow! That is a spectacular photo! What is "shooting trap?" Did you hurt your shoulder?
I'm actually not sure if "shooting trap" is proper English. We were trap shooting, or shooting clay pigeons. There is a spring mechanism that throws them into the air.
That's awesome. I envy you greatly.

California has BLM land? 50% of the land in Wyoming is BLM land - maybe that's why everyone there is given a 30-06 at birth or upon becoming a full citizen of the state.
