Aaron and I got to go out for a few hours! We did something we haven't done in years: went shooting together! We both enjoy it; it's how we met on our first group date a little over ten years ago. It was really fun to get out and shoot again. The only difference was that, last decade we shot empty bottles with a rifle and this time we were shooting various handguns.
It is very obvious to me that I'm not as skilled as I once was - that happens when you ignore a task for a decade. In the picture of me shooting, my shirt is pulled back in an awkward way. This was because the casings were ejecting back at me and a couple of them went down my shirt - painful! I have (the day after the incident) a noticeable burn right between my breasts because I couldn't get one of them off fast enough. Startling, painful and embarrassing!
Aaron was complete concentration and really ended up perfecting his shots! His goal was to get at least one bull's eye with one of the guns, and he was able to get more than that! This was particularly exciting for him because one of the guns we shot was one he bought last week, a kind of belated birthday present. He was really excited to get familiar with his new gun!
After the gun range, we went to Outback Steak House and chatted while eating yummy steak!
