GUNS N ANNIE

On our Sunday trip out to the Desert Bar, I took along a few of my guns. After leaving the Bar, we stopped at an area that is well frequented by folks that like to make noise with their firearms. Let me just say that this isn't a weekly routine with us. As a matter of fact, since moving to Lake Havasu in 2002, this was the first time that we had both done any shooting in the desert.

The 2 guns that got the most action were both 22's. One was a revolver, and the other, a Ruger 10-22 that I had never fired since purchasing in Oregon a couple of years ago. Patty had never fired either gun, so she got most of the action, and surprisingly, hit the target almost every time.

I told her she needed to change her name to Annie Oakley, and get a summer job doing shooting exhibitions. Not really, but her hits were impressive at a distance of about 25 yards.

After killing the target, and a few pieces of junk left at this desert shooting range, we drove back to the highway, and then home. I have a feeling that we'll be making another trip or two out to The Desert Bar this winter, and perhaps Annie Oakley will ride once again!
