“A friend owned property in the area and we used to use the rail embankment as a backstop for targets.”
Pretty sure I know right where you’re talking about.
We used to take our 22s to school and leave them in the Principal’s office until after school. We had to have a note from Mom so we could take the bus out that way instead of our normal route home. That or we’d ride our bikes with the rifles across the handlebars.
We’d hunt out by the old stone quarry that’s now owned by DCFPD or near Mallard Lake.
Try that these days and you’d meet a SWAT team.

Mallard Lake used to be a local swimming hole...
The last I recall was after RVN about 1972?
