I got my dad to teach me and a friend to shoot a pistol when we were in college. It was loud, and kicked pretty hard. Took some of the fear of guns away for me though. I am really anti gun still, the damage we do to each other is appalling yet, guns don’t kill if someone doesn’t pull that trigger. My whole family have always been sportspersons, hunters and bow hunters- even the females. My sister and I flat out refused to participate. Kinda hard to argue against it if they use every thing they kill particularly after stalking javelina with a bow and arrow (thought they were nuts for that).

boring, but necessary

I was walking twice a week -consistently for a year with a friend but she & her hubby just moved out of state and it is horribly boring to go it alone. I’d take the dog but she barks at every other dog plus every squirrel, bird, truck etc. Sounds like I’m killing her, people stare, it’s just awful so we stick to our own block and I go to the park without her.
Awesome!

Did this in Florida with my sis and brother-in-law. Those dolphins are just fantastic and when in the water with them, we are just big ole dolphin toys. Frightening thought but major fun. Worth every penny and the drive down to the keys. Would love to swim with wild dolphins one day as well.
