Pretty good GK…..you have nettles over there too? Those things are nasty….nasty….nasty…..I’ll spray them with weed killer instead of whacking them…….nice looking white face cows….I miss the cows here being at the fence right outside…..big corporations knocked out the little farmers.

Those suckers have a way of getting over, around, under or just plain smashing down the fence to get to the grass on the other side.

Super duper weather..70 and low humidity……I actually had to use a flannel shirt last evening walking around. Jay will use a t shirt only down to about 35. That’s what I call good circulation.

Hey guys.
I waved to Six when I flew over yesterday. We are in Vegas, believe it or not. Yeah......this ain't my thing. We have to go to a wedding in Utah. It was cheaper to fly in here. I wanted to see the country between here and there. We rented a Durango and will check out the grand canyon, hoover dam, and other places. My parents are with us. Cody and my grandson flew down to meet us. The whole gang is here.

Now, don't get any ideas. You should know OldWin by now. I got a buddy staying at my place taking care of everything. Total whack job. Makes me look like a liberal.
YOU'VE BEEN WARNED :D

Hey good for you buddy, Y'all will like the Grand Canyon that's for sure 🌵

Cattle busting down fences keeps my son in a job :D I had the same problem when I was gamekeeping.

Ha! Good for you bro! Your beginning to make me think your a “man about town”…Alaska, Vegas, 52 mile drive to work, and the best, your one of an only few I know that has been to Cornville! Say hi to Kristy, Cody and the gang. The only person you have to worry about stealing your S is me and I’m down here in Libby Land…….that whole area out west is nice but it’s too brown for me…I like the green

Thanks for the laugh….I am beyond aggravation at the moment…getting a little better………yea, it happened again…..me and mom had a pleasant drive down to Brandywine Hardware and because of the traffic I took the winding road home…….its about as wide as an old horse and buggy road and there’s no way you can go faster than 30 unless you have a Corvette or a BMW…..same road where that guy passed me over the winter on a blind curve……in a BMW………so…….today, here are me and mom cruising at 25 mph and yep, within a 1/4 mile a BMW comes climbing up my bumper reving the engine up and down up and down up and down……I’m all relaxed and mom says, “what with that azzhole behind us?”…. As the weather was cool my arm was hanging out the window and I politely motioned to the guy to back off….he responded by getting closer and reving the engine more……naturally, as I’m a confrontational individual, I slowed down to 15 and screamed at him to back off………he got a foot away from our back bumper reving the engine more….it was a young guy in his early twenties……

After 2 miles we come to the light where there was no where to go and I let him have it. Shot out both headlights and 3 through the windshield….no.no….I made that up……I just gave him the one finger salute but he knew I meant business so he shrugs his shoulders. After the light turned green he smoked his tires passing me and near hit the car in front of him…..I made a quick right hand turn.

I told mom, “there’s a reason why the Good Lord didn’t make me as big as Jay or I would have flattened out several dozen people by now.”

Don’t understand the mentality anymore….people are losing it…….

I did get a “very nice hat” at the cashier at Fresh Foods from an older lady waiting in line…..the tattooed cashier purple haired girl behind the counter gave me a nasty look. None of this was exaggerated…people are going off the deep end.

Whew! Just got back….Scotty beamed me up to Maine from the USS Enterprise………got my Colts back along with interest……oooooooo, all this half mag carbines fit just perfect in my safe……..

It was terrible being beamed back down….something happened during the atomizing and all those half mags turned new in the box!

Yep! I’m 70 and loving every minute of it…….like Burt Reynolds said upon nearing death, “I had a hell of a ride and the fun of 20 men.”

There ain’t no room in my body to “let the old man in”. It’s chock full of Benjamin’s……and fun memories…….and…and….a few nice Winchesters and Colts.

Haha yeah sure! Ol Josh woulda lit you up for sure! :D
I call him Camo. He is actually our kids age. He used to work for Kristy at the insurance office. His parents are real nice, but kinda liberal wussy types. This guy is a redhead and a school teacher. And like I said, he's a real whack job like me. There are few people I trust with all my stuff and the dogs. Usually it's family, but we're all here.
Of course us being us, whataya do in Vegas?
Well, my folks, the wife, and our granddaughter hit Bass Pro! The granddaughter loved the fish and all the mounts. They even had a giraffe! Nothing like that back home!
The oldest boy and his missus had a Humvee come pick him up at the hotel and hit Battlefield Vegas to shoot some machine guns. Shot an MG42 and bunch of other stuff.
We're outta here tomorrow. Headed for Utah.

That’s great…you having a blast! (Can I come?) what are you, 3 hours behind? Even 2 hours will mess you up…it does me but it don’t take much for anything to mess me up……

If you don’t like Liberals stay outta Moab……..can’t figure it out…Jeeps and hippies left over from the 60’s don’t seem to mix……the Arches National Park is great for family hikes but I bet it’s hot there now……

I spent the evening making an attachment for the floor Jack…..to be more fitting for irregular things I lift…….didnt work out too good….probably be easier to just put a 6”x6” block of soft pine to conform.

The earl bird gets the worm……..just happened to wake up at 9….3 hours early and PENN DOT was out there repaving the road. Because our nation is getting old they can’t pave over 17 times or the road would be 10’ high….they chop it up back into pebbles and it’s called “millings”……….beings that a tri axle load of stone is around $400 this stuff is just as good for filling in…….I walked out there and asked the guy but he said it all goes to a special place…..I then talked to him using the universal language and down the driveway he came. My cheapskate neighbor comes running out and said he wanted some but the guy told him he couldn’t do it and was only allowed to “give” one load. I shut up.

After the driver left my neighbor wanted to know how I got it but because he’s a rat I said, “I don’t know, go home and eat some cheese.” :D

Yeah, you worked that out buddy. :D

We had an awesome drive up yesterday. Came up 15 to Washington, Utah. There was a massive thunderstorm off to East coming so I wound the hell outta that Hemi Durango to beat it. We passed the oldest boy, who left before us. We beat it and just caught a few drops. The oldest boy got hit hard.
Sat out on the patio for some hard earned cold beer last night. Of course, Kristy's priorities are different. :D

That’s cool Jayster & Kristyster……the environment there is sure not what we are used to…BIG SKY and you can see the storms coming along with the rainfall…….people die sometimes when they are walking through washes in the desert…..there may have been a storm a mile away and the water comes gushing down with them unaware…..

Nights are cold aren’t they? Nice place to visit but it’s all too brown for me and you….

Marshmallows? Been 50+ years since we did camping…..cool…good to see your enjoying it. What the flame coming from? …something new? only thing I know is wood branches around the yard

By the way, what’s with the dual tone on yo sneakers? Step on a Smurf?…..—-006 and 3/4’s

Those are my dad's sneakers! :D

We hit the grand canyon yesterday. Really glad I got my parents there. It's great when we get the whole gang together. Saw an elk and a coyote.
Funny thing on the drive back. We were winding down through the twisties while I was wishing I had my bike. We came up on this Camaro going about 25mph. Meanwhile, this dude in a C6 Corvette is riding up my butt and I could just hear him swearing.
We broke out onto a straight and I let the Vette go before I passed the Camaro, then I'd have a blocker. :D
I ran that Hemi Durango up to 85 when I went around him, but that Vette was GONE. Dude must have been going a buck fifty.
Anyway.......we got about 5 miles down the road and there he was, pulled over with a sheriff behind him. Ouch! :D
We got a good chuckle.
Here's mom and dad at the GC.

That was smart……on letting the vett pass you. Out there, it’s pay right there or into town…..I knew I raised you right. :D

Mom and Dad look very happy. They are seeing the “fruits of their labor” and what they started. Not many people can say that…I personally don’t have anyone left that lives within 2K of me. …I would have looked really good standing in between your mom and dad. You tell them I officially adopted them as parents as my parents are gone. You and Kristy will be my kids….your kids will be my grandkids and that means I already gave a gift to my oldest grandkid, Cody…..

Enjoy yourself….i used to but don’t ever see myself getting on a plane again…..something set in the last one I was on and now I have this “no sense premonition”.

Stay cool bro—-00

Nice to see Mom and Dad posing in front of one of the greatest landmarks on the planet. :D I would love to fly out there again but can't take all the hassle that goes with it these days.

You got that right GK……if you fly all the time you get used to it and know exactly what and where to go….i flew twice a year and every time I went, the rules were different. Plus, I bring guns which is another hassle, especially in Denver…..Philly used to be more lax and my guns would come out with my baggage…….I don’t like that……..in Denver you have to go to this room. The last time I was there I told them my name and they handed the large case to me which contained a 5g Winchester and a 4G first gen single action Colt. I said, “don’t you want to see my ID?”. THAT peed me off….

Hot today..upper eighties……my neighbor turned his back to me when I was walking down the driveway…….yea, like I’m his subordinate. F.him.

Back in the mid-80s I was a district sales manager for the company I worked with for 43 years. In a three year period I flew well over 500 times, sometimes 6 flights a week. Worst job I've ever had. Now I despise airports and travel in general.

Amy and I flew to Ft Worth on Wednesday to visit our son, his wife and their six month old daughter. The temperatures went well above 100° every day and the humidity was not far behind. You just lose motivation to do much of anything under those conditions. Our granddaughter got sick and had to go to the hospital on Thursday night with a salmonella infection. She was discharged this afternoon and seems to be okay. We flew back home and arrived here early this afternoon. So nice to be back home...it was in the low 80s when we flew into Albuquerque and here at home it won't even hit 80° in the coming week. I sure appreciate being home and settling back into my own routines.

Good for the little tyke…it’s saddening to see a small child suffering and they can’t communicate except cry….

You flew more in a month that I did in my entire life…500 times! We have been trying to get GK to fly one time, one way only. He’s got the invite but we all know how us Yanks are…GK showing up at the door, we open it and say, “who are you, the Fuller Brush salesman?

Oh don't get me wrong, as much as it's neat to see places, I HATE commercial flying and airports. Hate it.
I'd rather drive, but I hate driving in cities and traffic, so there you go. I like driving in the boonies or on trails.
We're headed home tomorrow, and I'm ready. Back to my hick life.

Your life is not a hick life…..we sleep better than they do….we are “one in nature”. We make purchases to please ourselves and family, not to be trendy or to make billionaires into trillionaires.

The “Burning Man Festival” is going on out that way…..they have an “orgy dome” with tofu fast food. Shaq O’Neill showed up and they had to use a bulldozer to accommodate the brown monsters he leaves behind. Old Savage is probably in the Orgy Dome.

Yeah, I tell you buddy, I wouldn't change a thing. I keep my life small, I got what I want, I have the best family one could hope for. I sleep fine. I count myself as lucky as you can get.
Found out this morning I lost a good friend yesterday. He just retired. Lifelong mechanic (and the best) who owned a garage in town. He was as genuine and honest as a guy could be. He would do anything for a friend, and defend his friends whether in their presence or not. Lifelong hunter and shooter. Avid ice fisherman. The kind of guy we can't afford to lose. Hit me hard.
God Speed Paul. I'll tip a vodka-cranberry for you. Till we meet again.....

That sucks…just retired……I got the Feds for 8 years of free living that I paid into. You have to wonder where all of the s.s.he paid into went to?……ok, let’s pretend he was married….if his wife’s check is bigger, she keeps that and his goes back into the system and vice versa…..still, one of the two’s wages went back into the system for someone else. :D

Meanwhile Kamala wants to open up a large part of Colorado for “affordable housing” and her father was and is a confirmed Marxist.

You just confirmed what your real likes are………you prefer to be home……..Your next step will be what I’ve done……..you enjoy family but you’ll reach a point where you say, “come visit us at home” …your home. :D. Maybe not……..I just don’t like traveling anymore but I believe I’m the exception….most older folk like to travel.

Every time I went somewhere I couldn’t wait to get home. That meant I was either going somewhere to get something or someone to please.
….not to mention I was always expected to pick up the tab of all expenses while “they” were buying Harleys, new Jeeps, living much higher than me.

You wanna hear somethin’ funny…….a relative of moms got married yesterday down in Maryland…….i told mom I hardly know these people and am not going, period. She didn’t want to go either…..well, the group came home late last night and said it was the worst wedding they ever have been to……the wedding cake was the size of a dinner plate and no one could eat any as they were “saving it”. Cheap beer and even cheaper food was served…….no pictures were allowed to be taken and the married couple requested cash for gifts ahead of time.

Now you know why we stay home without even thinking if “they” care or not. We did hear that the groom was wearing work boots that were spray painted gloss black. :D

What? Can't be. Nobody cares that much about what I say or do. :D
Sitting in the Vegas Airport waiting to head home. It's made a little more palatable by sipping a cold beer, but I'm ready to be home and get back to my simple, hick existence. I've had enough. Cody and my grandson are on their way back to Alaska. Miss em already.
I like it out here (not Vegas) though. For what I like to do, it's a great place (dirt bikes and Jeeps). I like the dry air and no bugs. It's hotter than the hinges of hell, but I dont really sweat. I don't think I'd like the hunting like home. And I think I'd miss the woods. There's still a few places out here I'd like to see out here, but not sure if I ever will.
Anyway......I'm ready to go home.

Yes….the dogs do depend on us for safety and comfort….NEXT TIME STAY HOME!,,,, Your little buddies will thank you for it.

Funny thing ….we are starting to adapt our lifestyle for our dogs…well, we always did……”no, no, I’m not going because we can’t take the dogs” or, “let’s get home, the dogs are probably scared.”…….or..”come on, let’s hit the road and get home before the dogs S all over the place.

Hittin’ it early bro…tomorrow.

Should have stayed in bed……another “excessive heat warning for today and tomorrow”. I’ve become adapted to it pretty well though, cut down and burned a smallish dead willow tree yesterday…….electrolytes, water, and a light amount of food….my neighbor, SB#3 like dead trees and has them all over. He thinks it feeds the woodpeckers……I figure there enough dead trees out in the woods to feed them…..this guy mush have 15 stumps around his place, all about 3’ high….

Storms coming for three days starting Thursday……gonna fire up Mr. Semi-Mighty Kubota Z…..

I sat at my own table this morning, drank my own coffee from my own cup, had my dogs at my feet, in my own darn house.
Holy smokes did I sleep. I only jumped awake cause I thought I might be dead. :D

I with ya….like Dorothy said, “There’s no place like home”.

At your home, your king of the castle (in my case, the Compound……..you don’t have to put on a fake smile to people holding the door for you, obey the speed limits, be courteous to let someone out, no panhandles to give the finger to and hollarin, “get a job”….read signs all over and obey them…”signs, signs, everywhere there’s signs”……..your dogs are your best friends and they mean it.

Condition white…it don’t get no better than being at home….unless you live in the hood and then the sewer is better.

94!!! I shut down around 90 so I’m headed to Brandywine Hardware to see if they have those new trimmer heads made by Shinbariwa…..no more winding the cord…just feed it through in one piece like an Ego trimmer and crank the casing until it’s full……

Yeah! That's how my cheapie Homelight weed whacker is! It's so simple it took me a while to figure it out. The first time I loaded it I took the head out and wound it around and fed it out through the holes. Like in the old days haha.
Next time I figured it out. Wow! Works slick man.

Yea bro…..made simple……what bothers me the most with standard trimming heads is that the cord sometimes gets wedged and won’t feed…PITA…I love the Ego tools but despise their overpriced batteries…..theres Chinese knockoffs at half the price but the reviews say “hit or miss”, like a Rossi…it may or may not work…

Brandywine Hardware had a sale on spray paint…Rustoleum ..2 for $10….the only colors were yellow, green and orange, which is what I use so I bought a box of them……

They had what I wanted for a trimmer head in stock at Brandywine Hardware….has the STIHL name but probably made by Hong Chu Li Xi. —-
It’ll probably take me several hours to figure it out, maybe the whole evening…..”Chickanic” on You Tube loves em and says none have ever come back.—-00

Well Jayster….I’m BOILING….waaaaayyy past the point of molten tungsten………(not really, just disappointed) ……I do have Carte Blanche at this hardware store and get what I want when I want it…that comes from spending money there for 50 years……..

So…let’s get on with the story……( I know you like stories and so do the “peek over the fence” wannabe “Politically Incorrect” outsiders do also………

I asked the older (around 60) guy down there at Brandywine Hardware, “Do you guys carry the replacement trimmer head for the Stihl gas trimmer model FS 111R that you just feed one end of the line in one side and out the other and twist the face plate that automatically winds it up all in one piece like the Ego trimmers do?”

Him….”we sure do, step over here and I’ll pull one off the rack.” I said, “for a model 111 and I want to be clear about this, it’s an auto wind with ONE piece of line like the Ego, right?”. He says, “yep, you’ll love it”.

That F ‘er…it’s no different than the factory OEM, just cleaner and fresh out of the box. NO, I won’t take it back, I’ll just tell Alex, the guy on the commercials about it and that I’m pizzed a bit, not much, but a little. By not returning it that puts the guilt on them and guilt is a motivator of mankind——-(don’t think into it but it works every time) I know he will hand me a new correct one and say, “get outta here, see ya next week……bro”.——-00

Rule in life…..don’t be normal and act civilized…just nice and to the point…NEVER be cheap and always show the wad of Ben’s…you get what you want, instantly…————there ain’t many people who can have a 14G mower delivered to the house on a phone call and a promise.—00

I had to buy a new strimmer head for mine too, the one it came with didn't work too well and was a bugger to take apart. I have also ordered a butane weed burner for the weeds growing between the cobble stones out front, I told my daughter in law I was getting a WW2 flame thrower .. :lol:

Haha yeah. I use the "somewhat disgusted stare" sometimes too. That has gotten results for me, but usually when there's some kind of direct confrontation. A good solid business is hard to find. If I have a long and successful relationship with them, they will get the benefit of the doubt, and a small issue won't really bother me.


Hey GK! That will definitely work. Matter of fact, I'd like a video. I've seen one of those in action up to Dover at a machine gun shoot one time. The whole crowd was in stunned silence. The heat, even standing behind it, was impressive. But for me, it was the noise. It made this horrid roar, and turned bright daylight even brighter. Like burning pure acetylene. A fearsome weapon.

Oh Lordy….the stars are misaligned with me today. ……I’m out front cutting the grass maybe 30 yards from the road…..I see a car slowing down and pulling off on my neighbors yard…didn’t think anything of it and continued cutting…….then the car goes east and comes back down and pulls in the driveway of the neighbor across the street……I continued cutting……

Then the guy comes out of his car, walks across the road and into my yard. I drive the semi mighty Kubota up to him, turn off the blades and lower the r’s…..me, “yea?” This big fat stupid looking guy says to me, “are you the homeowner?”…..me, “yes, wadda you want?”…..he says,”I was driving past you and your lawnmower threw stones on my car.” …..me, “hey look here stupid, you see the “lines” in the grass, on a 45 degree angle along with the 6’ bank before the road?…. You’re full of S and your just another a.h. trying to get a free paycheck. Get the F off my property or I’m gonna F you up.” Him..”understood”.

Ya know, when you get old you’ve heard it all, he picked on the most street smart person in the county. Zero tolerance with todays mindset.

Jay…..it happened exactly as I said it…..let’s pretend it was true…….your driving down the road and there’s a guy on a tractor mowing…..what do you do? …..we will slow down to see if any danger is imminent, then proceed with caution…..i told you a million times todays college educated people have no common sense.

But it wasn’t like that. It was plain as the day is long that this fat weak looking jerk was looking for a free 3 or 4K…..it’s how it is down here. You guys still have sensibility up your way…….

I have zero patience for todays mindset and I’m sure as hell am not going to waste my time dealing with this a.h. and the courts even though I have well over a mil in coverage. It’s easier and quicker to cut through the red tape and give them a dose of redneck justice, which I’m sure you will agree to. My nephew, who is almost as old as me makes a living by suing people. He says insurance companies will settle for a few thou than waste the time and money in court…

That M.F. picked on the wrong dude. ……hence, my reclusiveness. and YES, I’m cut off my nose to spite my face. I be redneck…—-00

Yeah I get it bro. That "pay em off" mentality is the cause of it. It just promotes the problem.
If that douche bag thought he was gonna get his ash handed to him, he wouldn't have tried it.
Same as that piece of garbage that spit on my Harley. He'll think it over next time. He's lucky I wasn't some Patch, or he REALLY would have been in trouble.
I can't stand how ignorant people are now. Smug, ignorant, and rude, without the ability to back it up. Only scream for help. When guys were true Bad Ash's, everyone was polite and courteous.

Oh man…..what you said was how I remember the 60’s-mid 80’s……Im not nor ever was a bad azz but I can handle my own, even at 70. Plus I ALWAYS have an equalizer of some sort which I’m afraid to use due to the after effects.

Well, check this out……I was cruising around the back property on the new semi mighty Kubota at 3/4 throttle, putting hours on it breaking in the rings……you get it. After an hour I parked the Kubota in the garage, played around, blowing it off..you get it…..and about 10-12 Harleys come down the road, minding their own business, just cruising and enjoying life…….I walked in the house and said to mom, “man! did you see all those Harleys?!?….I want one!”…….just playing around with her……..THEN…she said, “you’re 5 minutes late, some guy in a pick up with a cap on it backed in the driveway and smoked the tires like crazy, shooting stones all over…..and it was deliberate.”

I walked out to the end of the driveway, you know, a good 100 yards and there was stones all over, ..it’s like he power braked it and pushed on the gas…..made a mess. Mom said dust caused from it was like a big cloud….mmmmmmmm …..I F. U. big time yesterday by not getting his tag number as today he came by with a different vehicle.

I will not be intimidated by anyone…..fun begins tomorrow……..he’s gonna need new tires……a red cone 1/3 of the way from the side of the driveway and a 1/4” x 4” x 4’ strip of wood with 2” long 8 penny nails covered in stone. This way innocents won’t pull in the driveway to make a u-ey. I’ll be waiting in the weeds across the street with the BAR ……..no, no…no guns at all. :D—-00

Someone spit on your Harley? I tell ya bro, that’s a deadly mistake in my book…..

Oh yeah! Pungie patties! That's what my dad and uncle called em. When they were young, they worked for Blue Rock. It's a road construction and aggregate company. They were on strike and my dad and uncle would make mud cakes filled with nails through a shingle and scatter them in the access road. Then they'd throw rocks at anyone who ran the gauntlet. He said one day this limo pulls up and these mob dudes introduced themselves and said "we like you boys", and gave my uncle their card. Freaked em out haha. My uncle was a real BA. Awesome guy, and easily my favorite relative. We always g9t along great. Still lives about 8 miles from me.
Yeeeesss........you remember the Harley story. The fat skin bag that spit on my bike when he left the cell phone place. I ran him down and drop kicked him. Kristy was real impressed, but we some great customer service when I came back in.

Sometimes when someone tells me something I might have something on my mind and it goes in one ear and out the other and that must have been on of those times. Man! What a liberal fat pig loser wannabe cool guy, weak minder dope who played with the wrong guy…Good for you! Never heard the term “drop kick” before, except in football…. :D :lol: I like to call people names as you noticed….hey! SB#1 flew the coop for good and became pals with Jesus so I hear………yea, he reminds me of the guy who spit on your bike.

Mud cakes with nails? Mmmmmm….”pungie patties”. Almost S myself when I heard dat. Yea, the old days of the Unions being strong are long gone……I remember those days n the early to mid seventies then people started ratting out their buddies and putting them in jail. I was just a young punk trying to get in on the action but the meanness and redneck justice were about gone before my brain somewhat matured.

Just another day in paradise…..got to head out to the garage and cut a rip cut the end of a 2 x 4. I’ll pre drill the holes 1/8”

Have fun bro! Back to work for me, but it's only a 2 day week. They are jacking with my and my buddies time now. They hate us cause we've spent 36 years earning this time while they were home pizzing in their pants.
They forget the other thing we've learned o er the last 36 years is how to play the game and screw with them.
Let the games begin! :D

Speaking of douche bags, the crime rate in Albuquerque is outta control. We're up to 2 or 3 murders per day now and a good portion of it is teenagers who know that the worst the justice system can do to them is put them in juvenile detention for a couple of years.

Early this week in town, a guy woke up at 3:30 AM hearing someone breaking into his truck. He went out and confronted a group of teens who shot him, over 30 shots fired and he was dead. Yesterday the police arrested a shooter, he's a 16 year old who confessed.

I firmly believe that in this day and age, males should be institutionalized until they're in their mid 20s. A mandatory military draft would help but of course the real problem is parenting.

Yea……to Jay and Walt……let’s the games begin….

What was and is still happening in L.A. is spreading across the nation…….the hood rats have nothing left to steal in their ghettos so they are coming out in the suburbs. Jay has less to concern himself with as he hasn’t got the real deal low life’s that inhabit cities near me and Walt….they want to,come where the money is and they think the inhabitants of nice homes are sissies. …..like that guy the other day who thought he was gonna get a free paycheck with me.

Lights, lights, and more lights…..I must have at least a dozen of high lumen motion activated spotlights all over the place along with cameras, dogs, guns and the will to use them…..lights out inside. I also have another “security device” but I don’t post that.

Weed whacking to do….took the guard off…don’t like it.

Yeah. In the last few years, we have added lights and cameras too. When something trips it, it sends an alert to Kristy's phone, and she can monitor the cameras from her phone. If she is at work, she can be home in about 1 minute.
Nobody better make the mistake of thinking cause I ain't there it's easy pickins. She may be little, but she's super mean, and would probably burn powder quicker than me. :D

I believe it! She does look feisty. ….”punks” wouldn’t attempt it anyway, like here, punks who do these things know the homeowner and his reputation. A professional would just walk up to you dressed as a postal worker then stick in a gun in your face. For what? Our stuff is worth a few thou and old guns are hard to sell with modern computers, etc.

Well Jayster…”they” are at it again….Friday night high school football games are being cancelled here and there in Philly because of shootings……..and no one wants to say what the problem is.

Yeah. We had one here down on the border. Some scumbag shot his wife. Then loaded his kid in the car and drove out onto the Kittery bridge (between Me. and N.H.) and banged it out with the cops. They smoked him and when they went up to the car, they saw he'd killed the little kid too. They're ruining this state fast. It keeps creeping north and we are running out of places to run to. It's still a long ways from me, but it's coming.
