Well, I'm in Laredo, TX, after a couple hours delay in DFW due to lightning storms. Waiting for Mike Mason to arrive and we;ll proceed to the ranch in Mexico. Dry and breezy this morning here. Hoping TS Erin will go around us. The questionable weather arrived too late to cancel. Sure missed the BBS while it was down. Best to all, JL

I haven't emailed Mike in awhile. Glad to hear he is out giving it a go. Hope you have lots of targets and good shooting. I am jealous!

Back home at 2 AM, this morning. Weather was perfect. Not as many birds as usual, but I killed more doves than in all the last 15 years total, here. Had a great time, great food and, of course, great company. 10 guys from Mexico City had been booked but cancelled because of Tropical Storm Erin. It would have been fun to meet them and enjoy their company but the good news was that Mikey and I had the run of the place. I'd just like to ask your opinions on the following minor controversy: Yesterday morning, the last shoot, we were having a friendly competition. Mike bagged 29 doves and I bagged 28. However, my bird boy, Malente, killed un conejo(one rabbit) with his slingshot. It seems to me un conejo should count as at least dos palomas, giving my team 30 points over Mike's 28. Mike's not buying the conejo bonus idea, though. What say y'all?

A bird in the hand is worth more than a bunny in the bush!

Agree with Chuck. Everyone knows that, eh?
