It’s funny, as one who was born in Brooklyn and grew up in Long Island folks are always surprised that I love to shoot. I grew up going to summer camp in New Hampshire where I became addicted to target shooting (and hiking). Anyway, over the past few years I’ve been a semi-regular at Prince George’s Trap and Skeet located at 10400 Good Luck Road in Glenn Dale, MD. Since I sold my car I took a quick 15 minute metro ride up to College Park and a friend picked me up at the station, five more minutes by car and we were at the range.
Trap shooting reminds me a lot of golf. You are competing with your friends but also really competing with your self. Each ticket costs $5.50 and you get 25 shots at a clay target. After every five rounds you rotate a spot. You simply say “pull” and a target is launched. After everyone has shot five times you move one position over.
If you don’t own your own shotgun you can rent one at the range for $8 and it costs $7 for a box of 25 shotgun shells. It’s a ton of fun, but be careful it’s very addictive! You can find more info including directions on their Web site here.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
