We were in the midst of my business-move, had a couple ill family members, some trees down, pumphouse heat failed, and so on, so much so that even a few 'off-the-grid' days would have really messed things up.
Prayers up for those who weren't so lucky.

I wound up with the 45, cuz it gave me an excuse to maybe shoot a few odd-n-end 45 ACP rounds I have sitting about.
