Hunger Games Movie Site

I'm working in North Carolina for a couple of weeks. Last Friday the movie Hunger Games opened up. It turns out a lot of the movie was shot in the Hickory, NC area. Nan and I drove out today to check out the site even though we haven't seen the movie. The property is an old cotton mill known as the Henry River Mill Village. It's currently owned by an 83 year old gentleman that has it up for sale for $1.4 million. That sounds like a good deal since a Prevost motorhome goes for $1.7 million.

In Ohio Again

I had a 2-week job in the Cleveland area, so we are spending some time living with Nan's mom. The job was from 2/27 to 3/8. Aftr the job we spent some more time in Chesterland, and we plan on leaving this Wednesday, 3/21 for North Carolina. Nan and I looked at a house in Roaming Shores, Ohio. Tomorrow we look at 2 more. The search is on.

Today we spent the day at Nan's brother's house. He lives in the country, so he invited his friend Vince and 2 sons out for some shooting. We did some trap shooting with our shotguns, pistol shooting, and rifle shooting. The big excitement was shooting Mark's AR 50 - a 50 caliper rifle. In the picture you see the bullet next to a 22 bullet. Each bullet costs $3.00 (for the cheap ones).
