Road Trip - EOD3

We're here for a day, and we're living the American Dream.

Seriously. Went out in the morning to some garage sales on base. Went to Taco Bell (Burger King for Silvermane) for some lunch. I still think it's strange that Taco Bell doesn't have french fries (not even Freedom Fries?) in the US.

"I'll have the two-Taco combo, with a side of ... um... another Taco". They ALL come with side-tacos. Odd.

Anyway, after we filled up our bellies, we headed out to the range for a good 'ol day of shootin'. That's right! We went to the local Un-policed gun range, where you're free to bring your own weapons... and trust that no one will start shooting at you. I have to admit... it was kind of fun! :D It's the first time I ever shot a gun before... so... I didn't know what to expect.



Isn't she cute? She'd make a *great* assassin. So don't mess with me, or I'll have my girlfriend take care of you!




I have to admit... this is *way* better than the nintendo light gun or paintball guns...



Bullets are sexy!



So, yeah. After all that good time... we had to head back to clean up & head out for a barbecue. Of course, on the way there, we passed the photo-radar sign on base. I still don't fully understand what makes this speed limit necessary. I was going to get out and walk the rest of the way... but took a picture instead.



We topped the day off with a barbecue that I think we were *very* late for... since most of the food was cold! But, the food itself was good. And there was a great potato casserole dish there that I'd love the recipe for (Lucyfer, if you're reading... see if you can get your hands on this for me!!). :)

and what else were we going to do!?!? one day you stay!? i had to jam all the "american" things in one day!!! though if i'd thought ahead we'd have taken a tour of the base and taken more pics with planes because they are all very important and historically important! and its uber neato to see them..... and we'd have gone out the flight line .... oh wait...... we'd have had to do that during the week.... to see the b-2's fly..... oh well.... next road trip!!!
