Something that tickled my funny bone

While I was out and about I stopped by Bass Pro to pick some items up.

I was planning to do my second Run & Shoot competition today.

Unfortunately, during the night I’ve come down with something.  When I got up this morning I didn’t feel great but I was still ok.

By the time I was showered and ready to go I felt completely lousy!

So I stayed home and am nursing whatever ailment I’ve picked up.

At first I thought that something I ate had just disagreed with me. But I’m thinking now it’s something more like a cold / flu / stomach bug / whatever.

I’m achey and feverish.

There is a part of me that wonders if I’d gone out to Palm Springs if the heat wouldn’t have made me feel better. I’m tired of being cold!

Just as I was getting into wearing shorts & enjoying the warmth of Spring…. We’ve had a cold front move through and it 40 outside… Again!

I swear, we didn’t have a Winter… and Now it looks like we’re not going to have a Spring either! I’ve actually been wondering if I should shut the sprinklers down again because the temps have been dropping so low.

Of course if I just got out there and installed the rain/freeze sensor on the sprinkler control unit I wouldn’t have to worry about it quite so much.

The photo above is the result of my putting these items on the counter at Bass Pro yesterday. It just seemed such a contrast. The candy corn is for the godson and the ammo was going to be used today.

The grouping was just so redneck I couldn’t help but laugh.

I don’t think the little girl at the counter saw the joke, she probably thought I’m a bit strange.

As I was coming home I was thinking about a series of photos that would be priceless.

Ammo, diapers, milk, moonpie, RC Cola and a 6-pack.

Condoms, Ammo, and a home pregnancy test.

You see the pattern…

I’m thinking I’ll pull out the camera, tripod, and a nice backdrop then start taking photos that document the redneck experience in the early 21st century

Might be interesting…
