Christmas In Arizona

Next week, I plan on spending Christmas with Mitch and Holly Geriminsky in Lake Havasu, Arizona.

I had a nice chat with Mitch yesterday and expressed my desire to do some skeet shooting with the Winchester Model 12 shotgun. I want to see how it performs. I also am bringing along the Winchester 94 for some plinking at the shooting range there. 

Funny thing, the first time I did skeet shooting was three years ago with a borrowed shotgun. I did better than I expected. The following year, I tried out the Remington 870 Express that I bought there. Frankly, I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with it. I think it was due to the short barrel. Since the Winchester Model 12 has a much longer barrel, I hope to do much better. 

The drive (around 420 miles) will seem like a short drive after driving about 2,000 miles last week from Des Moines, Iowa to Orange County, California.
