Woke up to Derek exclaiming, "This is I hate cans day"

The scene from the Steve Martin movie "The Jerk", where he is working at the gas station, kept playing through my head. "These cans. He hates these cans"

The boys set up old cans on the microwave, to shoot with anything they could get there hands on. Trudy joined in as well. I'm not sure how many rounds went in to the dreadful cans of tin, but I'm sure they will not be back to bug us again.

After the can carnage, Brice came over and we had another flock of bright orange round pegions make of clay, fly by. Derek decided to try to bring some to the dinner table. He was so good that Brice challenged him to a shoot off the next day.

That night we decided to do something about the issues with trailer brakes. We has an extra battery so we went to find some 10 gauge wire so I could wire in the extra battery.

We head to Wal-Mart in search of wire. Nope only 12 gauge. Autozone was closed, Big Lots and Dollar General had no sign of wire. We travel to the busy metropolis of Bradford PA. Advanced Auto Parts had 8 feet of wire. That turned out to be just enough. We will see if that is enough.

We fell asleep about 11.

Tomorrow the shoot out.
