The day started out kind of cold - like a September morning - with dew on the grass and temperatures around 4C. It was cool enough that we wore jackets or sweatshirts throughout the entire match. It did not stay that way of course, and at the end of the match the temperature had climbed to about 20C.
The wind wasn't much of a story today. Oh - it was there, mostly blowing at about 20km/hr toward the firing point although sometimes across from right to left. Sometimes it would gust to about 30km/hr and sometimes it would just drop. The flags were most frequently in disagreement over where and how hard it was blowing. A good thing - we had enough time to wait until our chosen conditions returned.
Driving down to Petitcodiac was a real pleasure with few cars, no trucks, and only a little road kill. We saw deer, foxes and a turkey at the side of the road - nice!
It was a quick match today as we had only two relays for 10 shooters - others must be enjoying the day doing something else. It was good to see Volker back from his trip to Italy speakiing Italian - well, at least he can order Vino in Italian. He had a marvelous trip and hadn't lost his touch on the trigger.
Today's match was run by Volker T. who also did the scoring with Martin T. verifying the math. Dan G. and Bert deV. were the RSOs while targets were changed by John McC. and Dan G. Even though Shelly C. wasn't there, she sent her marvelous treats to the shoot with Tony L. and of course, Dan G. brought a ton of timbits for all to enjoy. Many thanks for all the good stuff done today by all!
