Today, we started out our day with a great breakfast. After that, we began preparing our afternoon meal. We made cole slaw and got it into the ‘fridge to chill. Then we started the baby back pork ribs slow cooking in a special barbecue sauce the crock pot. Everything else could wait until almost meal time. With time on our hands, we decided to go to Sharpshooter and rent one of their Springfield 1911 .45 caliber pistols, just to try it out. Image: Verna firing her first .45 caliber rounds.

After target practice, we did a couple of errands and then returned home to continue with the barbecue stuff. We took a couple of ears of corn that had been soaking in their husks and put them on the BBQ to roast. After a while of sitting on the swing it was time to get the ribs out of the crock and onto the grill. At the same time, we shucked the corn and put them back onto the grill to brown up a little with butter and pepper brushed on. If I do say so, this meal was as good or better than the well-known BBQ chains out there. Image: the results of our labors. Click for a larger view.
