Ruislip Manor had a very relaxing end to the summer events, with an evening of Big Friendly Read bedtime stories!
I'm going to admit, I didn't read much of this at all. I had several ideas for this challenge, but more in regards to books I have started but never finished reading and yet they stare at me from the shelf saying, "Quitter!".
I decided to go with this because it really would make my brain hurt to read it. I was never into guns growing up. My dad had them, but they weren't ever in plain view in our house. I always knew they were somewhere because my dad was a quail hunter. I never favored the thought of guns, per se.
When I met Jason, he had guns. He was in the Coast Guard and had been a hunter, owning his first gun at the age of 10. I shot a 9mm pistol for the first time when we were first dating. I shot at nothing. I shot into an empty field toward some trees that were far far off into the distance. I know that I could never bring myself to shoot an animal, unless it was trying to attack me, in which case I, more than likely wouldn't have a gun on me!
I've had mixed feelings about guns my whole life. I am now married to Jason, who is a deer hunter. I used to feel this strangeness about it, but am finally to a point where I understand. We live in rural Missouri. There are lots of country and wooded areas all around us. The deer are overpopulated and often get hit on our main highways outside and through town. I've finally gotten to a point where I would rather eat chili through the winter that is made with deer that was hunted for population control/sport, rather than knowing that the chili was made with some random meet bought at Wal-Mart that was trapped in a feed lot and then slaughtered for the over use of it's fare.
I know this probably stirs up a lot of mixed feelings for people. Trust me, I understand. I was a vegetarian for most of my life. I'm still very particular about where the meat I do eat comes from and how it was treated. And even when I know, I still have a hard time eating meet on certain days when, for whatever reason, I'm completely grossed out by the fact that it's an option for eating.
Wish I could have gotten a closer still shot. This is Beavis and Butthead blowing through the DPS crossing in Robstown, TX
