30 this morning and headed to 52 today.

TMA is work in chicken coops till lunch then take wife to doctor and run some errands. Wanting to go look at wood stoves while in BG. May also try to go to Cabela's. I'm looking for a 1911 in 45acp. They had a nice looking sig online. Now to try and hold it.

Ron safe travels. Remember keep the bugs off your glass, and the bears off your... Fill it in.

My last job required me to put about 50k a year on trucks. Now I'm lucky to do that in 5 years. I don't miss it either.

Congratulation to the Shrub for his 1st Championship. Now I can have a few Sundays with no TV watching to plan around. Only 90 days, 6 hours and 52 minutes until Daytona, but who is counting:eek:

To bad Gordon couldn't go out a Champion, but kudos for Kyle for winning his first. I will experience Daytona for the first time next year, thanks for letting me know how much time my wife has to pack. Hope it is enough.

Whipper is sitting at the edge of the front yard watching the house, literally watching the house. She missed the 3 coyotes and deer right behind her.
The pic only shows one coyote (left and above of the steel post) they were moving fast.

I'm looking for a 1911 in 45acp.

my father had one of those in WWII, and dutifully handed it in.
Only shot it once, at Japanese planes overhead while stationed in China early in the War.
I think he wanted an excuse to shoot the darn thing. He was an Airforce Intelligence Major, rode a desk.
Pics showed signs like Read and Heed, and Loose Lips Sink Ships

I've shot that gun, thirty years ago, up in the Poconos in PA with the chief of police, who brought along a bunch of handguns. I've never been around handguns, but like guns. Odd for a pacifist, I know. So I shot that thing and I believe a 44 Mag. That had a long barrel while the 45 was shiny, shorter and heavy. Real hand cannons.
The flame would shoot a foot out of the gun. And what a bark even with headsets. Hard for an amateur like me to hold but at least I didn't conk myself on the head with it. What kind of round were you considering Farmer? Lots of videos on Youtube of guys hunting with pistols. Those handguns would take down a large boar or coyote I'm sure. I guess you just have to hit it...;)

Don, great pic. Oh mighty protector....

Got 6" of wet and heavy snow the day I was helping my friends move...was quite a miserable job but they are good people so I am glad I could be there. Later this week it is supposed to get as high as 52 degrees...crazy Michigan weather.

Just proves what a great house watch dog she is, never lost focus on the house. I bet she would have alarmed if they tried to break in.

Don't know if they're any good, Farmer, but Tractor Supply has a sale going on this week that might help. I have small hands, and swapping out the trigger for a "short" version made all the difference on my SIGs. Don't know if they can be ordered that way, but I picked mine up from Brownell's and did the work myself.

Good Morning! 50F @ 8:00 AM. Partly cloudy skies. High near 65F. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph.

Carb parts came out of the dip coated with hard water deposits, so today they get a vinegar bath. And I'll need to call the softener man, as his last fix to the water softener didn't hold (again).

Hope everyone gets everything done in this shortened holiday week...
