37° this morning. Celebrating my B-day by starting off slow. With a good cup of mud.
Shot 40 rds out of the new 9 shield yesterday. Had to make an emergency run to to the gun shop to get 2 more boxes😉. This thing is a blast.

Happy Birthday, young fellow . Hope it's awesome. Trying out a new gun is a good way to spend a 'B day. Enjoy the heck out of it, LOL.

Maybe I missed out on a joke...dunno, but I think Grunt has gotten your gender wrong on a couple occasions.
If no joke, I would refer him to page 22 of " The Real You " thread. :shock:

Walking around the back yard today, found a repair tag, from Robinson Helicopter Co. It was for a pulley belt, run in, acceptance tag,
dated 4/11/06. No doubt it was blown in from the tornado South of here form an airport. Also, found a piece of fiberglas roof or
siding.

Maybe not as bad but we have a similar prediction - from 66 today and sunny to low 40s and snow on Saturday!

This pattern has been repeating itself for the last month ! Nice all week then downhill on the weekends!

We actually need the snow, it is very dry already. Supposed to get 6" or so. I was looking at factory 45 Colt for sale in Canada; not much out there, good thing I started reloading last year. Not much out there maybe cuz I bought it all a couple of years ago....:)

Looks like we could get 6" or more of snow tonight. Cheers!

Good luck at the VA. I'm very familiar with the parking space game. I've started parking on the concrete slab that surrounds the end of the spaces. Pull right up on it in the F-150. Haven't had any complaints yet. Yours may be laid out different. I go to Murfreesboro VA.

We are under a winter storm warning now, changed from 6" of snow to a couple of feet starting tonight. All good, snowblower is ready to roll. Haven't used it much this year.

Sounds like the blower might get a workout. Stay warm.

45 right now, hard to believe snow is coming. Just finished making my round riding pen bigger, got an extra couple of panels in it, 40' diameter now, better for working horses in, and throwing some practice loops on my little wooden cow "Spruce". :)

This is some of the stuff a good round pen is handy for. This is not me, but that sure looks like Spruce....

Temps in the 20's, we got an inch of snow so far but more coming today. Supposed to stop tonight so I don't see us getting 2 feet of it by then. Tea in the Henry mug, chores then do some reloading today.

25° <1" overnight of snow. No biggie. I'm going to warm up the range with some 9mm, and .45 Acp. Milk jugs beware.
1st cup of dark roast coffee down. Not sure what the better half is going to make for Breakfast this morning, but looking forward to it. Cheers all!
