Same as last years reminder. Last year Ed admonished me for a misleading title.

Just a reminder that lots of shotguns will be out and about this weekend. Dove season often brings some bad apples that must have alcohol while shooting guns. We left a dove shoot last year when one out of the ten guys there appeared to be having too many. Not many birds anyway.

Be safe and be aware everyone! No muzzle sweeps and fingers off the triggers!

Forgot about the geese! I would like to shoot some resident geese just for spite. Can't hardly build a stormwater basin without them eating my expensive wetlands plants.

What's the limit anyway? Leventy-leven?

I hope y'all had better luck than me today. I didn't see or even hear any geese.

BTW - is rifle in season in Fauquier County yet? I heard four or five rifle shots throughout the morning.
