A week ago I caught up with a friend. She and I have know eachother since Peter and her daughter started preschool together. Anyway, she reminded me that her daughter likes to hunt and is thinking of the same field that Peter is...FBI, intelleligence, etc. I mentioned this to Peter and he asked her to go to the open house yesterday at the Deefield Pistol Academy. He was in La Crosse this week with Papa Pete and GranJan so actually texted her...her response was "I'd love to." Long story short, they met up at the gun range with Papa Peter and her ,mom in tow. After they left, Papa and Peter rented a 9mm automatic machine gun...they loved it! After this wonderful morning at the gun range, he went on to a GREAT game of baseball....he scored a run that won the game and two awesome catches in right field. All of his buddies are now calling him "Pistol." He was riding high last night so, at his request, we bought him a lottery ticket!
So, Peter's first "date" was with a girl who loved going to the gun range with him and who he let shoot his handgun...his "perfect" kind of girl and Papa Pete was there to see it all!
Nothing better than seeing your children happy and feeling good! He'll always remember this first "date." H.
