Change of Seasons

Seems we're in the midst of my least favorite time of year in Michigan. Ski season's over. Too cold to ride my bike yet. Fishing's somewhat slow unless you want to drive three hours. Small game season's basically over. And the weather's so unpredictable -- plan for lousy weather and it turns out decently.

But I seem to be able to always find something to do. Shooting range seems to be the activity of choice this time of year. As long as it's not raining too hard, it works. Had a nice, and very uncrowded, morning at the range on Saturday. Even shot the CZ on the 100 yard range and learned some lessons about the velocity of .22 ammo. Nice drop!

Did some re-rigging of fly gear for May steelhead/trout trip to the UP, and even some outside household chores before yesterday's mix of rain and snow started. Hoping for some good hard rain to clear the roads of winter debris and temps consistently over 50 degrees to get my bike out in the next couple weeks.

Enjoy whatever you're doing to pass the time in this transitional season!
