Still hearing, smelling and expecting to see Timber in his favorite places in the house.

Going tomorrow to see the college boy and take a piece of Mom's birthday cake to him.

Cold and rainy outside. Nothing to do. Waiting for a cat. With a hat.

Getting hunting gear together. Leave for a mule deer hunt on Thursday morning.
Looking over Tom's catalog at Accurate for a 180-200gr GC mold for the Marlin 44
Excited to get this rifle back out. Never really had any luck with the 240gr+ stuff.
I might have to hit a certain someone up for a .433" size die.......:embarrassed:
Let me know how much and I'll send it your way.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
Move South young man.
Electrical problems can be a pain, deal with them almost daily on automotive systems.


Yeah, southwest would be nice buy Mrs Bret won't go outside if the temp is over 70 or so. She's a northern girl, sweaters don'tcha know.

I'm not bad with 12v auto electrical as long as it's before 1980 or so. This tractor is something basic and simple I'm sure, just gotta get time to mess with it more.

gotta offset the overly protective other one somehow.

Jax has an issue with anyone not in her daily inner circle, it's taken like 3 months of her seeing the neighbor almost daily to stop barking at him after she commandeered his jeep that day.
he can't pet her, or even get within 10', but at least we have worked up to her not incessantly barking at him.

Das Wiemer ?

I love Wiemeranners , smart , strong , very family oriented ..... As long as you make them think it was their idea I don't think there's anything they won't do for the right family .

Silver Labrador.
my first one was from two chocolates, this one is from two silver parents.

the chocolates carry a recessive gene and it's only passed on in like 1 in 100 pups.
they used to just kill the silvers and the AKC refused to paper them until recently.
however if you mate 2 silvers, they both carry the dominant recessive gene and will pass the color on.
they even come in a dark [chocolate under tones] and a more blue color.
it's like getting the White ones from Black parents.

It has a 44" "desk" top on a 72×36 . The top is 12" deep with 24" underneath . The die shelves are 8" . The top shelf and top are 12&12 1/2" . The top bottom shelf is only 16" .
2 sheets of 3/4 ×4×6 and 1 sheet of 1/2 ×4×8 . The 1/2" makes the back solid . There's a guy that sells seconds and defects here for $8 for the short 3/4" and $12 for the full 1/2 .
The desk top is a scrap 1/3 sheet of 1 1/4" French flooring 44×27 1/2 "
Comes to about $40 and 6hrs of lay out , cut , and assembly . It's pretty rigid as is but I think I will have to put a 1×4 facer under the desk top and another on the bottom-top shelf .
