Map of the route

This morning I tried a new route to take Otis for a walk/run. Much better views and less issues with loose rottweilers. Its also 5.7 miles, more than twice the 2.4 miles of the old route.

I didn't track the time it took, but I did run a significant portion of it. By the end of it Otis was tired but happy.

Tomorrow I plan on taking along my phone/camera. Right now the leaves are right around peak color, and some video and pictures would be fantastic.

We had our second Pink Pistols shoot here yesterday. I think it went pretty well. I was scrambling all about because of our 3 rangemasters, two were gone and the third was a little late. It was fairly hot and humid, but the rain held off until evening. We also had two video crews here shooting footage.

After being sick for over a week, I'm finally getting into Spring. We got the boat out, and Otis has been enjoying standing on the prow while we do all the work. We're going to start working on the range again soon, probably this week. Today we had more people over for the "church of John Browning", including some kids who got to shoot under the supervision of an NRA certified trainer.

Well, we finally have a "real" address. It seems that once a road has at least three houses on it, it needs to be officially named for emergency services reasons. Since the newest neighbors have finally gotten their house built, it is finally time.

The new official address is:
6 Freeses Pond Road
Deerfield NH 03037

Of course, the post office still won't deliver mail to this address; so you'll have to continue to use the PO box when sending snail mail. (I can hardly wait until we can end that monopoly!)
