Is anyone aware of local AA meetings here in the county that were cancelled last Sunday? It doesn't seem likely that meetings would be cancelled with someone at the door turning people away, but that is the story I'm getting from my alcoholic.

I appreciate all of the suggestions here, from calling the police before we start shooting, to letting the neighbors know when we are about to start. I don't want to be one of those nasty people that does whatever the hell I please, but I also want to stand my ground and not allow NIMBY's (or...

Thanks, but I would not have gone with strictly the opinion of forumites. I was hoping someone would be able to cite an ordinance or something, and a great link to the sheriff's office was posted. I do intend to call, but I like your suggestion that I get it in writing!

Nope. Plenty of space.

That's helpful, thank you!

Oh, that sucks! I'm going to vote that you continue shooting as much as you want to, and feel free to invite anonymous forumites over, too!

I would definitely say we are perfectly safe. As for neighbors, if we are legal, I don't really care what they think. I say that not because we are a33holes, but because we already have more than our share of difficult neighbors and nobody seems to care what anyone else thinks.

St. Mary's. So, 150yds for hunting...do you think that means a lesser or greater distance for targets?

Does anyone know of the laws re: target shooting in one's own backyard? Is there a minimum distance from the next house? Minimum acreage? We mostly shoot a 9mm at empty bottles and a target. The family that would shoot are certified military marksmen (or whatever the vernacular is) Thx

I didn't live here when Lenny's was a place, but Blue Wind is really good, so I guess their new place should be, too. What's your beef with "the Lenny's people"? Is it personal? Based on BW and my visit to the Beanery, it can't be the food!

Stopped in there on Monday and it was darn good. I had coffee, and bought some stuff to bring home, which we all enjoyed. The lunch menu looked...different, but in a good and creative sort of way. I'll be going back again soon.

I called, but the mailbox is full. I'll send along a PM.

Up in Hollywood? That could probably work. Are you affiliated with them?

Anywhere from Lex. Park to L-town would be great.

Does anyone know if there are any local mechanics/auto shops that might allow a 16y/o to 'intern' (so to speak)? My son isn't enrolled in the public school system so cannot attend the vocational center at L-town, but is seriously interested in cars/motors. He's worked on stuff with his dad, so...
