Hunting season is over, and it's not the greatest weather for going to the range for a little target practice. We had about five inches of snow on Friday, and though the streets aren't too bad, it is still only 28 degrees with cloudy skies. I haven't even tried out the Valentine's Day present yet (Superleash). I'm afraid I'd end up as the sled behind a three-dog team since many of the sidewalks haven't been cleared of snow and ice yet. It makes for a rather boring Sunday.
My new paddle holsters didn't arrive either. They are supposed to be here on Monday, but I had expected them yesterday or the day before.
In my last post, I mentioned robberies here in Lincoln. The gas station I go to most often was robbed about a week ago at around 10 p.m. I go there a lot for pop, beer, or snacks; usually two or three times a day. Sometimes I go over there as part of my dog walking route. They used to have a hook on the outside wall where I could fasten the dogs' leashes while I went inside. The hook is gone now. I don't know if they removed it for some reason, or a large dog was too much for it. I had to tie Murphy up to the cage where they keep propane bottle refills when I went there the other night. I chat with some of the regular employees occasionally, but I haven't had a chance to ask them anything about the robbery yet. I'm glad no one was hurt. I feel kind of protective about the place since I go there so often. I've always wondered how I'd respond if someone tried to rob the place while I was there.
