Sunday in the Country

It was nice to be outside and finally enjoy some sunshine...

and some shotguns.

JCW

Dixie was in her element.

EAS, Dixie, Dixie's Mom

Tailgating is a must whenever possible.

Hors d'oeuvres tided us over until dinnertime.

EAS & JCW

We munched on Wingers. When it comes to salty snacks they are quasi-healthy.

The day ended with steaks on the grill.

Special thanks to Kipp for having us out to the country for some shootin' & eatin' and to Dixie's parents for being such great company! xx

    I like your hoof pick belt you wear it well! Nice over and under shotgun! Rent the old movie "The Shooting Party" Very Downton Abbey-ish.

    Hope you scooped up those discarded shells for a li'l Christmas project. And your pics and the German Short Haired Pointer are gooorg. Both making me long for shooting, a freezer stuffed with game and my late English Pointer Ginger...XXOO

    Great post and great pictures! I thought I actually smelled the steaks on the grill as I scrolled down. The problem is now I want a glass of wine and some of your Hors d'oeuvres but I'm at work!

    EAS,
    What type of chinos does JCW perfer? My fiance's birthday is coming up, and he does not like how big his polo prospects fit.
