Hi my friends, I know many of you are gardeners and homesteaders. I am neither, but I do have my one Orange tree in my back yard. I basically neglect it but I think hubby did actually fertilize it once or twice. Other than that the poor tree is on its own. So while many of you are under a blanket of snow I have lovely oranges on my orange tree. Oh and My doggies- Sadie the Min Pin, and Roxie the Maltese. :-)
OK I had No idea what to title this post. I was going to title it the family that shoots together stays together but decided against that. Here are some pictures of us out at a Sporting Clays place. Richard and I ride around in the golf cart and the rest of the family shoots shotguns at these clay things that they pretend are different types of game such as squirrels or rabbits or birds. Different stations have contraptions set up to throw these clay things at different angles and speeds and things. Someone pushes a button and the machine thing shoots the clay round thingy and the person with the shotgun at the station of course tries to shoot it. That is my explanation. Since I have no desire to shoot I just take pictures. It is fun just being out in the woods.
