[Leica] Wednesday Weeds, where are the squirrels?

[Sonny Carter]

I own three firearms, all inherited.  A Ruger .22 rifle, a .22 pistol, and
a 12 gauge shotgun.  I haven’t fired any of them in the years I’ve owned
them, though I hunted squirrels with the shotgun as a kid.

I think the Ferel  hogs might be a hunting task beyond my skills or
inclination, and I’d expect the meat to be pretty gamey.
