Day Trippin'

This past week, an old friend of my wife's came down to visit. This weekend, we took her out to see some of our favorite local spots. We took her to a local greasy spoon for some good grub, and took her to the cemetery where we got married. While at said cemetery, we looked at some of my family's graves. My son bent down, and said 'Thats our name!'

It was a good picture opportunity.

Lazy Days

Bubble wands and a relaxed dog.

Hard to get much better.

Holsters

I was looking at louisville leather today. They make a fine holster. I have one...

I just keep hoping they make one that's a level 2 retention.

Dog names

One day, i'd like to get a good hunting dog. Maybe a beagle. But it's gotta be a female....

So i can name her Sarah Brady.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could get that bi*ch Sarah Brady to go hunting regularly?

Ammo

Hornady Critical Defense, or Federal NyClads....

Which is the better defensive load for a .38 special with a 2 inch barrel?

Just bought the Hornadys, and haven't even shot any yet, but, hey, what's ya'lls opinion?

Gun Porn

A few family members got together and shot at my house today, to get ready for the concealed course next weekend. Gratuitous gun pic, and a nice recoil shot. And the one in the pink? That's my sweetheart!




Concealed Carry

For those of you who read regularly, ya'll know my wife is going to take a concealed carry class. When we mentioned this fact to my brother, he decided to take it with her. Then my step mom thought it would be a good idea to get her's, too. My oldest brother decided to get his, also. My brother's wives decided to get theirs with everyone else, and my uncle decided to pony up and do it too.

We currently have 7 family members getting their concealed carry in the same class. They have all signed up for next weekend, and have paid their money.

Score one (or 7, as you prefer) for the 2A crowd!

Sonny's

Whilst travelling through Baton Rouge today, i discovered that the ol' red stick is home to a Sonny's Barbecue.

Now, i managed a barbecue joint in my college days, and i know what true slow-cooked barbecue is. You can't get it in any chain restaurant, even Sonny's. You can only get true barbecue from a mom and pop outfit with a wood-burning smoker in the back. That being said, they are the best chain barbecue restaurant EVER!

I thought Sonny's was only a Florida/south Georgia thing. I'm happy to hear that they are representing here in Louisiana.

Now if only we could get Publix to come this way....

Bi-monthly get together

We are having a family feed tonight. Good food, good family,good eats.

The chicken-corn soup my sister-in-law made was awesomeness, and my wife's okra and tomatoes were bang-up too.

Now, we're celebrating my nephew's birthday.

It's good to get together with family!


Heading home!

On my way to see my sweetheart and my boy-o! I'm one happy man.

And a special thanks for those that my dad sent over. 1/12 done, guys. 11 weeks to go. As hard as it is, i wouldn't trade this experience.
