Last weekend my dad's family came for a reunion. It was tons of fun - we had lots of activities scheduled but mostly just sat around and talked late into each night. I guess that's what family is...people you love to just be with. Anyway, Saturday morning all the men folk went out to Blacks Creek to shoot guns.
My dad's sweet set-up. Seeing this picture reminds me of Imperial Britain - when the soldiers would be out in India's deserts playing cricket or something. In the movies they always have big, white tents. Anyway
That's Joey in the orange. My mom teased him - "You wore that so you wouldn't get shot, right?"
The guys said they had fun. Too much fun. Apparently - illegal fun! Seriously. About 10 minutes before they were done, the sheriff showed up with a Channel 6 news crew and started busting everyone for trespassing on private property. We watched Channel 6 news for 2 days before we saw the story - and of course, not Hudson family appearance. In the general public's defense - people have been shooting up at Blacks Creek for years, and there were no "No Trespassing" signs posted. That'll change soon, but we're mostly sad that our family reunion wasn't documented by our crimes...better luck next year.

Do I have the honor of being your first commenter? I'm so excited! Your blog-site is "stupendously awesome" (as Jarom just commented over my shoulder). I found the link from Jamie and Loren's site...otherwise I wouldn't have know you "existed" in the blog-o-sphere. I'll visit again soon!
