Someone was shooting last night

[Sir Henry]

Last night off in the distance I could hear someone shooting around 10 pm. They shot for about an hour and from the shooting rhythm I would say pistol. Yesterday my nearest neighbor stopped by to ask me if I heard him shooting and I said no. He was shooting a rimfire pistol.

Most people here are either cousins or uncles or related in someway. I went to a Memorial Day service at the cemetery yesterday and was introduced to a lot of people. A neighbor has taken it upon himself to introduce me to a lot of people. The first thing they learn about me is I’m from Seattle, the second thing is I moved because I didn’t like the politics. The third thing is I like to shoot. Upon learning that everyone welcomes me. Instantly the conversation goes to hunting and it doesn’t matter who asks. It can be man , woman or child.

Moving to Wisconsin has been like moving back to America. The best part is they accept me as one of them.

That is fantastic Gene!

[North Country Gal]

You definitely moved to a hunting and shooting state.

[GFK]

That puts a smile on my face!

[Luv the lever]

I can't wait to leave the state I am in. 5 years max.

[Sir Henry]

I can't wait to leave the state I am in. 5 years max.

It was a tough decision for me and one I don’t regret.

Congratulations Gene. I'm glad the community you are in are so welcoming.
It's been my experience that country folk are very similar where ever you go.

[RanchRoper]

Sounds like I should move there too.

[Cofisher]

Only if you wear a cheese head hat!

[RanchRoper]

Might be worth it.

[Sir Henry]

Sounds like I should move there too.

You would fit right in.

[RanchRoper]

I'd miss the mountains though.

[markiver54]

I'd miss the mountains though.

You'd still have moutains of snow.

[RanchRoper]

Well at least that’s something.

[Sir Henry]

I'd miss the mountains though.

I miss the mountains too.
