Middle America's Worldview

We had to travel to Texas last Thursday (I took off work for the drive). It was about a 9 hour drive to our destination.

We are fortunate to be able to stay with Kel's family while here in Cibola, Texas. The company is sweet and the absent cost of a hotel is not un-noticed. They are a cool crew to be with. Very laid back, all with good demeanor's.

While up here, I have had a good fix of guy movies as well. Normally, I have to wait for my family to be in bed before I can/will crank one on. One night we watched Blood Diamonds and the other night we watched Fly Boys. I liked them both.

Yesterday, one of Kel's cousins took me out on the shooting range. Unfortunately, we really do not have one in our area, so this was a cool surprise. The cousin has a Glock . His buddies brought theirs as well. I would say minimum, a 9 mm, mini-glock, 357 magnum, berreta, was brought. This did not count the long rifles. I was able to fire all of them during the 2-3 hour target practice. I haven't fired a gun in quite some time. To be able the variety was a real treat. I was mostly impressed with one of his friends enthusiasm and knowledge.

Here are some pics of her cousin and friends firing. I am not in the pictures (smile).
