I had to cancel plans due to recovery, so I’ll be relaxing indoors and catching up on everyone’s posts instead.

Had one of our summer 22 shoots today. We shoot 5 different disciplines over the 5 monthly shoots . I broke the club record in NRA Prone. It made my weekend complete.

Had a good gang show up to help put in the boat launch dock and carry all the buoys down to the lake. Took about an hour for me to do the fine tuning, and then I did the two hour swim to get all the buoys, float and swim line placed on station.

A rainy day today, so we rebuilt the cottage's back storm door screen insert. All new screen in one piece from top to bottom, and 1/4" dog screen on the inside of the bottom section. Used 1/4" x 3/4" PVC moulding on the outside to hold everything tight.

Rainy-day projects like that are always satisfying when they come together clean

Awesome! That's an old school Maine screen door right there! We had them on our house growing up.
I used them on my mom's porch that required them to be cut down (shortened). One of those doors is in need of repair as we speak.

Yup! It's about 60 years old now and deserved a little TLC.

My nephew and grandnephew came up to the lake this afternoon to help me get the docks installed; all the heavy lifting is done now and I'll finish the remaining details tomorrow in the 83F weather.

Your screen door photo inspired me to go fix my mother's back porch door yesterday. The door is just like yours. I thank you, but my mother thanks you more...
