My grandfather on my mother's side fought in WW1. He was 16 yrs old when he signed up. Lied about his age so he could go. I have a photo of him and some buddies in uniform I'll try post it this week. He told me they thought it would be a great adventure.
Morning tea time. Snow on the hills this morning.
Found the photo. The guy in the top right is Leonard Allen, my grandfather. Passed away in 1977.
I think the known issues are taken care of. If you have any issues or know of another member who is having issues, PM daytime dave. As we head towards the holidays, hunt with your Henry.

It's a rainy day in CT, today. We have no plans other than spending time together and honoring the thousands of heroes.

Sunny skies here as the tea water is on. I might have to head to the range today.

Had one cup of coffee and then went out and cut and trimmed the grass. Too darn hot, but maybe I lost a pound or two, certainly wouldn't hurt. Gatorade hits the spot.

Re: Our mornin Coffee and Weather
I woke up a little later this morning than I usually do. My allergy pill made me sleep in. Beautiful sunshine and calm conditions this morning. Having my coffee in my Henry mug and deciding on whether to go to the range or clean up my car and truck with all the pollen on them. Have to see what the fore cast looks like. Have a great day everyone.

Re: Our mornin Coffee and Weather
finally, a most welcome break in the rain .... after downing a couple of cups of coffee I have to get serious about getting our truck and camper ready to pull out next Monday when we are due to begin winding our way cross country from NC to South Dakota

my wife's home area is about 70 miles directly north of Sioux Falls ... its classic ranching/farming country .... her home town of 700 people has one motel, it has 4 rooms .... the town has put in 6 paved, full hookup sites next to the city park for which they charge $100 for a 7 day week (we can't run our home in NC during the summer for that) .... its a beautiful setting .... they do not want suburbs in that area, you have to own 160 acres to build a home outside of city limits .... if it wasn't for the winter, I'd move out there in a heartbeatRanchRoper wrote:Road trip sounds good.
