    Well it's that time of year again. I had a few hours to kill between work and a pickup so I decided to head up to one of our local shooting areas to start cleaning up. While it's a little early ( still 80% covered in snow) gotta start sometime because it is usually takes a few days to haul off all the trash and another few to pick up as many shells as possible "Before" NH fish and game and the town come through and decide to keep the place open or not. It has been on the town docket for a few years to shut the place down due to people trashing the place and rightfully so. Now I won't let this happen without trying to stop it. My grandfather learned to shoot here taught my dad and uncles to shoot here, I learned to shoot here and hopefully in a year or two I would like to teach my son to shoot here. Met a local old timer there on his way X country skiing and happened to be a good friend of my late grandfathers and was ecstatic I was picking up the place. Same rants I had It's a shame, how could people.. all that.

    This year I saw the worst thing seen to date. Three crt tv's shot to hell! well that's not to uncommon, whats worse is the SOB's decided to light the pile of tv's on fire after they got done shooting it. WHAT THE F------... Insert long list of ranting here.
    I was unprepared for this as I didn't have my shovel with me so that is being grabbed next time. The main focus of the first pickup is trash, bottles, cardboard, skis you name it. But took a little time to grab some metal figured I post some picks of the goodies for you guys.
