You may need to get a low powered quite rifle if not your 790 and find a small space to shoot before bed time. LOL

I can only imagine...*phut*"Honey? What was that sound?""Um... just, uh... using the bathroom...""That sounds like really bad gas... are you sure you're OK?"
drewi can do nothing about the withdrawls.....but i can help with that new gun.....bring it down the road to me, i will take real good care of her until you can show her the attention she deserves....loldarren
"Take 2 pellets and call the Dr. in the morning"......Seriously, ever thought of getting a cheap pistol and a silent trap and shooting indoors? You could shoot in a hallway, extra room, basement or garage. Might require a little ingenuity on your part to set up a range and of course get the other half's approval. That way you could shoot when the time or opportunity availed. Nathan

Haha.Regarding July 4th, I hear ya, Dave. Once I get any "free" time (read: I tell my wife that if I don't get a chance to shoot, I'll go insane... and the house is moved, so it's OK that the pictures aren't up on the walls, yet, etc...), I'll be shooting non-stop.(Before I forget: Darren, if you're willing to make the drive (about 45" N of Sacramento), I'm also going to look into setting up a night-hunt for rats at my dad's company's various warehouse locations. At a minimum, you, Niko, Mark, and George are invited. If the company owners warm to the idea, I want to open it to others that want to make the drive. This won't be until harvest, so we've got time to plan...)
I'm another of the lucky ones. I work from home and have a couple acres to play on in the middle of nowhere. Seriously though, it's sometimes a matter of making time. Like anything else, working out, spending time with the kids, taking the wife out, you just have to make the time. We all tend to get so caught up in everything else in RL, that we often forget we are not living to work, but working to live, and when you stop just enjoying life, you are headed into dangerous ground.

I _could_ pop in the back yard and get off a few shots, but with need to pack, clean, and also prep the new house (let alone actually move, eventually), I simply can't go shooting without feeling like I'm abandoning my responsibilities. Let's put it this way: Once we move, it is ON. I just tell myself it'll be over, soon, and all will be well. Haha.If you heading N on I-5, you definitely passed them!
