The pergola is about half way done when Greg asks him what
he has going for the rest of the day.
Deacon tells him that he is going to go home to reload a lot of bullets.
He explains that he is going to the shooting range after he goes running in the
morning. He asks Greg and his dad if
they want to come along, and both tell him that they do. Deacon tells them both he will call them
after he gets back from his run.
“Oh ya,” Frank exclaims very excited.
He continues “There is something I wanted to show you
guys. Follow me boys.”
Frank leads them down to his study in the basement, and
walks over to the gun safe. Opening it,
he pulls out an assault rifle. Frank
tells Greg and Deacon he bought himself one that matches Deacons but in a .308
caliber.
“Nice, it is an AR-10 instead of an AR-15.” Deacon explains
to Greg,
Frank tells them that he was looking for something with a
little more power down range. Deacon
tells his dad that he will have to let him take it hunting. Frank just laughs at him, as he puts the gun
back in the safe. Greg looking at his
watch tells Deacon that he had probably get heading home. Deacon tells his dad that he will come over
after work to finish up the pergola. As
they are getting ready to leave, Judy kisses Deacon on the forehead. She gives Greg a hug, as she thanks them both
for coming over to help Frank.
“That’s what family’s for!”
Deacon assures her.
Greg and Deacon wave “Goodbye” through the windshield
of the truck as they pull out of the driveway.
