    Clay shooting, this is
    crazy fun, new semi-auto shotgun, no cocking needed…which i
    definitely wanted to try…surprisingly alot of fun and easier to hit
    the clays…but takes away from the realism of cocking…give and a
    take? *shrug.

    great year for Fat Nation, Members coming and visiting from abroad.

    Our grand feasts, new restaurants, new experiences,
    and new friendships.

    This is shaping up quite
    pleasantly, I can only hope that in the end i get to meet everyone that
    joins the Fat Nation blogring.
