Boys Will Be Boys

Taking full advantage of the sun this weekend, I headed over to a friend Chris's 12 acre place in Mangaroa Valley. Darryl, a friend from work also came over, as he had the kids to entertain with his wife off visiting relatives.

We pooled a couple of boxes of shotgun ammunition, some 22 rifle rounds and between myself, Chris and Darryl we went out into the field to shoot some stuff.

After blasting through a few boxes of ammo, obliterating targets missing several others, we gave the kids a go. Needless to say the adults were pretty much put to shame by an 11 year old!

Once the ammo was all gone, the dirt bikes came out and we spent the next half hour riding round the fields and generally making as much noise as possible.

You know, I could get used to this lifestyle...
