Autumn

 Rain on Saturday night and this morning cool temps. When I awoke this morning, the temps were in the high 40s and it was cool on the back patio.  It's cool enough that I am going to make a stew for lunch.

Sunday is our day for family and friends.  We cook "big" on Sunday and feed anyone who drops in.  Yesterday, grandson Lucas was here with his parents. They had to leave early so that Lucas could attend a shooting practice with his 4-H shooting team.  He shoots rimfire position and silhouette.  His dad wanted to weigh his rifle so we took out the scale.

Luke's rifle is a Ruger 10/22 that has been heavily modified. Dad freaked out when he saw the weight on the scale. For sanctioned competition, the rifle is overweight.  It needs to shed over 1/2 pound. We talked options and he has a plan for that.
