6:42 on a Saturday morning Ive been awake for a couple of hours. Am I grumpy? Well I could be but we're having a Members shoot at Wartrace today so I'm not. It will be 100 degrees later today so that may bring on a little grump. 

Oh stay off the lawn, I will mow it Tomorrow

Wish we could send you some of the rain we've been having since May.

Creek across the road from me has never been so high.

Grass is leaping out of the lawn.

Ranges and shooting bays flooded. Matches cancelled or moved to other venues. A real pain.

So, GET OFF MY LAWN! Yore leaving footy prints and holes where yer walkin'!

73 mm around here yesterday. Farm fields around North Gower, now have kids in their boats rowing in the fields, as seen on CTV Ottawa just now.

I thought I told you to : GET OFF MY LAWN!

Jabez, starting to worry about the Canadian Nationals being cancelled at the end of August. The range has been shut down now for 16 days as a precaution against fires, 10,000+ evacuees are now located in Kamloops. If the Nationals are cancelled a couple of us are thinking about heading down to Simms in Montana to shoot that weekend. I can be grumpy if I don't get to shoot the Nationals but I'll be down right irate if I don't get to shoot at all that week

Getting the covered wagon loaded, after I finish this, and heading to Cornwall for the match transferred from Eastern Ontario Shooting Club.

Dang range road to the cowboy shooting bay, as well as the bay itself, still partially flooded and too muddy to get anything on it.

Light at the end of the tunnel though, since crushed stone is soon going to be laid on the road and extra drainage installed for the CAS dedicated shooting bay.

Can hardly wait to get building permanent shed and props.

Had fun Saturday with The Wild Turkey Posse and a match about NOTHING.

Two stages with challenging bonuses that we had a lot of fun with.

The sound and light show Friday night was interesting. Lottsa a thunder and lightning strikes around us.

It even woke up Red Storm, Regulator, from his comatose state in the motor home. Leatherface, who was parked beside us almost jumped out of his skin when one burst overhead.

Here's Leatherface re-setting the bonus swinger and patching the cardboard target below the window. It's activated by hitting the red square

I'm having a GRUMPY moment since Stranger has announced the cancellation of the Buffalo Rifle Match on the 19th

Now, GET OFF MY LAWN!

Finally getting some summer type weather around here.

But not for long!

Geese are flocking and doing practice formation runs and the squirrels are scurrying around.

I guess they know something wicked this way comes.

I sure hope we don't get as much snow, this coming winter, as we did rain this summer!!

That would make me really GRUMPY!!

Now: GET OFF THE LAWN!

Just shot the Upper and Lower Canada Wild Bunch Match.

Did as poorly as ever for 6 stages of an 8 stage match, then things got worse: my '97 's ejector decided to go awol and the parts disappeared in the grass.

Looked, but only found the claw, not the little pin thingee that pushes the claw.

Now I can only hope my G'smith can find the part for my Chapparral '97 and fix it.

Now get off the grass. 

I'm still looking for the pin thingee
