Outside Dining Anyone?

Post by Sir Henry » Mon Sep 07, 2020 12:43 pm

Sorry I don’t have anything firearms related to post about. My life is currently focusing on owner improvements and the year I get major landscaping projects completed.

While the completed re-roofing allows the outdoor kitchen to be functional it is not fully completed. The fun part is still left which is go to junk dealers, antiques shops and garage sales to make functional more user friendly and create a visual comfortable feeling.

Note the target stabled to the right post and the backstop with bullet traps on the left. Just trying to make this more about shooting.

I’ll post more about the new 36” griddle when I’ve used it more. I’ve made pancakes for myself about a dozen times however I’ve never cooked bacon and eggs on it. My general impression is that it is a hit.

Edit: picture and text added below.

This is the view to the left of the targets. Still
some construction debris to deal with.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

very, very nice setting .... just curious, because in our area skeeters and a host of other bugs would have to be contended with

The lowlands here are fairly skeet free. Go up into the mountains and that is a different story. No my biggest concern is bear. It is common to have a bear on my property a few times a year. There was a momma and three cubs in the neighborhood last summer and a neighborhood text going on bear sightings. Most days there were several reports of sightings.

Love the colorful decorating, Gene. Visually very interesting. If you have bears, how do you deal with them? We have to be very careful about not leaving anything they might eat in the yard. We have dogs and that tends to keep them away, too.

Ill take 2 eggs over easy with bacon and pancakes. I prefer real maple syrup but if I gotta take Mrs Butterworths I will use it. Can I shoot my pellet rifle while eating?

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

People have learned not to leave food out. I don’t think the bears associate people with food like in campgrounds. Dogs here are also usually the first alarm.

I’m trying the real syrup soon. Yes on the bacon and eggs and shooting. 8-)

Very cool surroundings Gene. As someone once said, I love what you've done with the place.
