At large, whereabouts unknown.
Wasteful things, like carpet & furniture?
Think positive,think "junkyard".... haha.
I ain't stopping till the primers start to really flatten. There was a node @18.8/19, seems like another at 20.5.... next will be?
I need a powder between the 4198's and the 4895's..... may go grab a can of 3031. But like M/C shops,all the gunstores around here are closed on Monday,dang it. With my extremely short attention span,by Tuesday have already forgotten about it.
Weather liars calling for rain,perfect time to feed the wood furnace and load develop. Then when it starts to pour down,go for a hunt/hike with Coke dog. Still working on the,under arm rifle carry.

I have been loading 45ACP on my P200.
Load is 5gr. 700X under 452360.
I seem to have an excess of CCI LP magnum primers.
I loaded 10 rounds with the magnum primers and tried them in both my 45s.
No obvious pressure signs.
I am going to load 10 with magnum and 10 with standard primers for each gun and run them over the chrony to get some idea how much difference there is....dale

Took her to Houston so she could see the Nutcracker Ballet. I watched/snoozed thru the westerns on GRIT. Traffic was terrible coming back on I45, left lane cruise idiots (80-95mph), but fortunatly not many semis. Avoided 3-4 lane jumpers why don't people realize when the sign says lane ends in 1/4 mi. that is what it means. 75 in Dallas, 2 stopped for rear ender in middle lane, traffic on both sides @ 60-80mph. Oh well, reduce the gene pool. Supposed to take the dog for beuty shop this morning, waited 3 weeks for appt, gal is sick so another 4 wks. Maybe snow tonite?

I think the understanding is to what level it will come out.
if you ain't mucked a stall before you wouldn't understand how it works.
but there is a level of agreement that finally gets found and the ground under all that lumpy gooey stuff is nice and smooth.
once you find it you just remove the over layer in chunks and toss it out the front, lay in a new mat of straw and wait a few months to do it again.
whatever else you do for the next week or so your just happy you ain't mucking out the horse stalls.
I gotta run a few errands with the wife today, then I will hopefully get to finish cleaning up the shop.
I got most of the big pile sorted and put out in the shed where it come from, but I keep finding little odd's and ends from some project or other someone else thought I'd do if I seen the stuff sitting there.
like the extra webbing for a lawn chair.
I just bought like 6 new folding chairs why would I re-web a lawn chair from the 70's?
I mean just cause I rope wrapped the one I take fishing, why ?

Gotta quit going Christmas shopping. Somebody mention furniture?
Me and Co made it back over to the craft store. Bought these red goober ball things for wifeypoo's bedroom. She has zero interest in any of this stuff. Everything in this picture was made in our shop with only a cpl exceptions,and I bought those. Can't see the light fixture but it is cylindrical with cut,beveled glass from the 1930's. Got it for $16.50 at this estate joint,deep in the hood in Baltimore,haha.

Hmmmm. We have a very similar "skinny table" in our front entryway. Depending upon the holiday, it is the centerpiece setting for themed displays. The Fall/Thanksgiving motif gave way this weekend to a Christmas-tree-by-Salvador-Dali composition that concerned me at first but finished very nicely. Art must be like the law and sausages--if you love them, don't watch them being made. (Thanks, Otto von Bismarck).
I spent the weekend without installing The Faux Foot. Gonna try it again tomorrow and see how things go. Planning a desert shooting venture for Thursday if the weather behaves itself--the leg heals sufficiently--and Mom keeps improving. A day away would be a good thing.

Rain is coming down out of a bucket,so of course me and the dog gotta go out in it?
Hard to say this politely and it's happened several times but,sure is nice having uhhh,large friends? Have been the recipient of some pretty durn highend hunting and outdoor duds from guys that well,"outgrew" them. One such was worn out today because as hard as it's raining,camo ain't as important as keeping my dumbarse dry.
One of my wood buddies is a jet setting fly fishing nut. Some guys live to go to Africa,Larry goes out west fly fishing. He swore up and down giving me his out grown Simms hooded rain jacket that it was before they "sold out"..... whatever that means? He said he got it at their home store. Anyfreakin way,I only wear it in monsoons. Today is such.
The Cabelas pinnacle snake boots I "stole" at a bow shoot last year got the nod too. They are now broken in and feel more like a well worn pr of Merrel hikers than the sorta clumsy looking boots they are? Wood furnace is loaded,time for a nap.
Oh yeah,bout 1/2 way through our hike/hunt Coco starts going ape,jumping on me in a very "Lassie" sort of way...... WTF girl? Then I see it,brandy new rub on some saplings she's trying to get me to look at. Proud papa.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
An "understanding" as in the manure belongs outside and not in the barn. In order for me to do that, I first had to remove some mud/manure at the far end of the barn with the old JD 420 crawler. Made it about 20 minutes before the perfect combination of ice, stones and old tracks came together in a moment of perfection, resulting in a thrown track........in the mud and ice and manure. I just shut it down and left it for when Gord gets home from school. Won't be the first time we've wrestled a track back on together.
I think the manure is winning this war...

Amazing, in 10 minutes we had the track back on! No busted fingers, crushed toes ner nuthin'. I figured I'd best leave success alone and called it quits! It's the wrong machine to be trying to work with inside the barn anyway. It's just better than the other "wrong" equipment I have at my disposal.
For those that care, I wish this was just horse stalls. This is a 40ish by 80ish open barn broken up into 3 sections. 2 of them were cleaned last year and aren't too bad, they can be handled with the little skid steer...assuming it ever runs again. The rest is 2-3 feet deep, nice, dry sheep and goat manure with some hay mixed in. Pretty much like hard packed dirt. I've used the crawler in there before to push most of it out and then finished the last 6" or so with the skid steer. I think at this point I'm going to rent a larger, MUCH newer skid steer from a neighbor to push it out. It should have been done earlier in the fall but that's when the problems wit the other skid steer started, so her I am.
