Went to the range yesterday and Colleen went with me.  What a glorious day.  We took the 308 and had a really nice time.  The gun is starting to shoot really well. Most of the shots came within 1-2 inches of the aim point at 100 yards.  It was a double whammy as the club meeting was yesterday and Colleen got to see how reverent and meaningful one of those is.  They only take 15 or 20 minutes but we get a lot done.
Mom has been supper.  She is considering May my birthday and is treating me like a King.  ONLY 3 weeks till the big R.  It really is coming. The only fly in the ointment now is that the legislature is considering an expo facto bill to take away our health insurance.  This is a big deal as we have been promised that if we work there 20 years they will cover us for health insurance.  I can get supplemental medicare for ~ $3 a day but it is the principle of the thing.  These folks have NO shame nor HONOR.
