Evening, Buppies. I'm fantastic! Thanks for asking BEF.

Condolences on your loss, Ken. Wonderful, though, that you got to spend so many years with her.

31°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 51° here today. Been awhile. Hope everyone is well.

More of a strawberry preserves guy, as well as H4895 and HP-38.

11°F and clear skies this morning, got up to 26° today, where it is now. We got about 4" of wet snow here yesterday. Sunshine all day today has started to reduce that. Warmer temps in the mid-40s tomorrow should put a bigger dent in it. Mid-60s by mid-week. Wife drove up to Chicagoland today to...

Savage has been putting Boyd's stocks on some of their models for a few years now. That one looks pretty nice. Congrats on the new rifle.

I got to meet Rick - and Chris Squire, Alan White, and Jon Anderson as well - after a show in St. Louis, back in '02 I think. Super nice guy. Rather tall guy. In fact, all of those guys were super nice. Only Steve Howe didn't make an appearance, as he's famously shy around strangers. Awesome...

31°F and clear skies this morning, got up to 47° today. Wind out of the north made it a little chilly. Wife finally started back into training this week. Seems everyone decided to forego any dog training until February. She was starting to worry about the lack of business. Now, of course, she's...

31°F and cloudy this morning, got up to 49° today. Cleared up a bit this afternoon, and got to see the sliver of moon in the western sky this evening. Drove into Highland earlier to pick up pizza and stuff, and it was pretty dead there. Wondered where everyone was... :ROFLMAO: Hope everyone...

The Savage MkII is .22LR. The Savage 93 comes in .22WMR or .17HMR. I have both the MkII-G in .22LR and the 93-G in .22WMR. While they are clearly not heirloom-quality rifles, they have both been very good to me. The MkII I've had for quite a few years, and long ago lost count of the number of...

27°F and freezing rain this morning, going up to 36° today. iThingie weather app says it's been snowing since 3am, and will continue to snow until 2pm. Nope. Only liquid water falling and freezing. The whole area is a sheet of ice (that pink area on your map, Drew). Fortunately for me, I'd...

2°F and clear skies this morning, and got up to 19° today. Sun felt warmer, but those 25mph wind gusts made my face hurt on the walk back from the barn this morning. One more night of upper single digits here tonight (11° right now), then we warm up above freezing on Monday. Lots of nice...

22°F and cloudy this morning, got up to 38° here today. We've had two days in a row above freezing. I don't hate that. Plunging back down into the teens tonight, and single digit lows the next three nights. Cold snap, pt 2. I see we meandered into uncomfortable topics again this week. I guess...

-1°F and cloudy this morning, and got up to 10 whole degrees today. We're getting some more nuisance snow right now, but not enough to cover anything completely. I noticed over the weekend that the pond fountain looked like it was struggling a bit to get through the ice forming around the...

Congrats, Helo!
