A friend in Utah had a need of some 16 gauge ammunition, and I helped him out a bit. He sent a wonderful care package along, many thanks, Dustin.

The package came while we, the boy and I, were at the gun club. There hasn’t been much good to report of late, but, I soldier on, trying to relearn the skill of shooting flying with my right shoulder and right eye. Today, however, something clicked, and the Remington 20 gauge LT 1100 that I have been using rewarded me for my efforts with a 19 and a 24, 16 yard trap scores. The 1100 is supremely pointable and low on recoil, something I am more susceptible to off the right side. I am literally re-learning to shoot.

Just maybe I can get this to work.

The wife volunteered at church, leaving dinner on me. I stuffed peppers, with my venison/turkey/chorizo meat mix. I pinched 4 burgers for dinner later this week, and got to work.

Pictures for Argo.

The mix, peppers, onion, chilies and garlic just after sautéing:

Rice, tomato paste and Clamato juice in the mix:

Peppers stuffed, topped with grated parmesan cheese, hitting a nice smoky grille in a pan with some water:

Deer season is on here, I don’t hunt birds while that is going on. If you are pursuing deer this month, best of luck to you.

Best,
