We always have a lot of fun at the shooting range when we go. But, it’s not always without mishap. Once in a while one of our guns will jam or misfire. Once in a while we will shoot the target off of the hook. And once in a while somebody gets hit by a ricocheting slug.

Note to self: roll down the sleeves when you’re up in the booth.

Have you ever seen those little cartoons in the rear windows of SUVs? You know, the ones of Dad, Mom, Nancy, Billy, Timmy, Spot and Kitty? When I look at those, I wonder if people realize they’re divulging private information about their family – information available to everyone that sees the display, including predators. Don’t you think that a pedophile might be interested in knowing your children’s names?
My opinion is that you should never allow household information out. Shred everything with any personal information on it before it goes into the trash and if you must have a rear-window decoration for your SUV, use something like the picture below to send a message to anyone that might have an unwarranted interest in your home and family.
Does anyone know where I can get one of these for my back window?
Today we stopped over to the Del Amo Mall for a preview of Armed Forces Day. The exhibits were still being set up, so we’re going back again on Sunday. The parade and flyover will be tomorrow. Verna took this shot of me posing by an Army Black Hawk Helicopter — A very cool machine. Click the image for full-size.
I snapped this picture last weekend at Lowe’s in their garden department.

I took this picture a few weeks ago when Verna and I were visiting the Point Vicente Interpretive Center and Whale Watching facility. It was a cool day with good visibility and we enjoyed our visit. We often take a drive down to the south side of the Palos Verdes Peninsula and enjoy the surf, wildlife and scenery we encounter. Click on the image to enlarge.
This is a picture of one of the Vendela roses in the crystal bud vase this week. The flower was partially lighted from behind with sunlight through the window above giving it this nice glowing effect.
