Good afternoon! Decent weather day here. Too wet to mow though.

We went gun shopping today. My wife has a new toy.



Roger SP101, 38/357, 4.2 barrel. She liked how this one felt in her hand. The shop had another with a full wood grip she didn稚 care for the feel. Also tried out a GP100 with 3 barrel that was a close 2nd to this one. May go get that one for myself. I liked it. This one feels pretty good to me too. Balances nice.

Very nice!!
I've have an SP101, like your wife's, a .38/.357, but have the 3" barrel. Enough heft to soak up the recoil of the .38's
I hope she enjoys her's as much as I do mine!

"Nice shot of the planets, Phil, and the snow movie worked fine, too. What kind of camera is it that has such a long exposure setting for the planets?"
Believe it or not that is a straight normal shot with my Iphone X. I did zoom in a bit digitally before snapping the pic. All the planets were lined up by God for the shot. Only happens once in a while.

30 here going to a partly cloudy 55. Hopefully will melt all the snow so I don't have to clean any up. At least the upcoming week will be above freezing!

I went out this morning before light to look at those planets. Thanks, again, for bringing it to my attention.

39F cloudy mid 20's for low tonight.

Took long walk about woods mostly looking for antler shed no luck but good stroll.
As I walk towards the shed Tom turkey confronted me didn't back down while his girl friend fed.

Chivalry is not dead!

31 right now...high in the upper 50's. Maybe some drizzle or showers.

If the rain holds off, I've got and area of leaves I'd like to rake and lay barrier cloth (then mulch). We'll see how that goes...

Good morning, the temp is 39°F and that is the high for the day. Wind W 11 mph. Periods of snow or rain.

I am not sure if I am going to get after the lean-to that needs to come down.


Have a safe and healthy day all

Good morning. 34 now and sunny, supposed to get near 56 later today. Going to be an outside day.

Roy, we tried out the new toy last evening. She likes it. I do to. She normally shoots a revolver better than I do, but I was shooting slightly better groups than she was. It shoots my hand loads exceptionally well.

Probably need to mow today. Places are looking like they need some attention.

Everyone stay safe out there

Coffee is brewing. 40° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 58° with AM rain and clearing in afternoon. Got chipper on tractor and chipped for about and hour. Have not had it on tractor for almost 2 years. One of the projects I have on my list for years is lowering the legs about 2". Started that project. Should have taken about 1/2 hour. But my 40+ year old cut off bandsaw decided to stop working. Got it repaired with a new drive pin. Still need to clean it up and make a new gasket. Cut last 2 chipper legs on bandsaw. That job is completed. Hope to get some more chipping done later today.
Hope this is last of the white I have to see until next winter. Taken Friday afternoon.


LS, landscape project looks good.

Frank, nice load of chips.

Buckeye, your stew looks good. I still have some from my last pot in freezer.

Rich, nice revolver.

Eric, did you count your sheep?

Kyle, hope your daughter is getting over bite. Going to be hard not to buy China for awhile. But I think you are going to see it happen in a lot of products.

David, good view while cutting field.

Prayers and best wishes for everyone.

Everyone stay safe and healthy.

Good Morning All.

32 with heavy frost and ice in the bird baths. Should see a nice 67.

Hawkeye, I have a lot of fun memories of spending hours on the trampoline with my sons. We still talk about it. On nights when the temps would go below freezing, we'd spray water on it with the hose, and come back a few minutes later to jump...all the ice would become little pellets from the fabric holding the water, and bounce up into the air with us.

Thomas, nice gobbler! I like watching them better than hunting them.

Kyle, hope your daughter is okay this morning. You may have discovered competition for the Texas oil boom as fast as photinia can grow. We're definitely trying to "buy American" (and from some other friendly countries).

Nice gun, Rich. Is ammo still in short supply up your way?

LS, landscaping is beautiful!

Randy, I bet driving a zero turn at 8 years old feels like a race car.

RNG, what a sunset! Not sure about the blacked-out tractor photo, though.

Two nights in a row with no bears, only raccoons. Bringing in the bird feeders is hopefully working.
