Monday I worked on unpacking (one room left!). I started weeding the flowerbeds as well. It was hot, and there was sweat running into my eyes after about 15 minutes. Also, I am having trouble pulling the grass up. Runners!

Tuesday I finished organizing my bedroom and then vacuumed before Ali arrived to pick me up for the Turkey Shoot. (Note: No actual turkeys were shot. Turkey Shooting.....target shooting that is, a.k.a. still board, card or block shoot. When we run it at the State Fair, the winner receives a frozen turkey or a T-shirt. Yesterday, the only prize was a T-shirt.) We broke for fireworks, and watched them from the roof of the Turkey Shoot building.

After we closed, Ali and I got to shoot. She'd never shot before; it was my 2nd time on a shotgun. Thankfully, we both hit the bottle we were aiming for. Otherwise, embarrassing.

When I got home, I had trouble sleeping. It seems that 5 hours of shotgun blasts winds me up.
