Evenin' y'all,
Band concert went well, though the director pulled a fast one on me and had us play one I hadn't even heard of before. Apparently, they played it the first week, but I wasn't there... Other than that, it went pretty well.
After the performance, went out deer hunting. Took my amigo along, for his second time out hunting. Didn't see nothin' but a jack rabbit. Would have popped him, but a 30-30 is just a little bit too much for a little bunny.
This brings up another point. Last night when I was oiling my rifle after being out in some wet foliage, I found a three inch long crack in the buttstock. starts right in the middle of the butt plate, and goes strait in. My dilemma is, I don't want to restock the rifle. It's the original stock and finish from 1928. Pre- Olin, pre - depression, pre- most (all?) of us on this forum.
So, I'm going to have to pony up some money and get a new rifle next week. Or maybe a Magnum revolver, perhaps I'll have better luck handgun hunting. We'll see.
