Sorry for your loss Forty.

I recently was at Sams Club and after loading the stuff in my truck, I took my cart to the cart corral and noticed a purse in the top part of a shopping cart in front of mine. After looking around to see if there was a female nearby (there wasn't), I took the purse back into the store to the customer service desk, made sure that more than one employee knew about the found purse and left. I never looked in the purse, for all I know, it could have had a lot of money in it, didn't matter...wasn't mine (I don't carry a purse anyway) and I didn't expect anything for doing the right thing.
Respect Sir!

After reading that Forty, I'm even happier I had a Stirling.

That sounds very Canadian.

I admire the care they take, measuring the powder charge.

Gives me a little perspective of what my uncle Doug went through maintaining his Shermans and remounting tracks, in Italy and Germany.

Cute! And they make a cuddly pet. At least ours did.
We called her Fleur.
Her Ping-Pong ball chasing antics in the kitchen at 3:00 AM left something to be desired though!
Sherron discovered an Arrowroot cookie would reduce Fleur's grumbles, but meant crumbs in the bed!

How is that idiot going to get the cup in to scoop out some if he doesn't open it further than that?
You cut /snip just the corner and pour from that.
Here are the instructions.
Some of us wild and crazy Canadians omit cut #2 and just let the bag collapse in on itself.
There is a risk in that the collapsing bag, decreasing in size, may drop out of the container as the milk volume decreases, but some of us just like living on the edge!!

It's surprising what some collectors will pay, at auction, for "Collectable" cartridges.
I recently consigned several boxes of .32 Rimfire Shorts, in the original CIL boxes as well as a box of Teddy Roosevelt commemorative .45 Colt cartridges and walked away with an amazing cheque, even after the auctioneers cut.

Thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers Walt.

I wish you had been able to make that offer to me here in Canada, BEFORE I bought them!

And a heartfelt sigh is heard from shooters in Canada.

WOW! Scary!
We get them here as we are on the Rideau River, which is partly a fault line, but ours are so slight, we usually don't feel them, Something about the geology of our fault sliding in tiny increments and not getting stuck to allow a big lurch.
The geologist, at NRC, (National Research Council), tell us we have little, unfelt tremors almost daily
The only one I really felt was about 50 years ago, while I was on the John and it lasted about three or four seconds.

Not a thing here, in Ottawa, Canada.
We still have some Air Raid sirens around, but not many and no new ones I am aware of.

I wore my wedding ring on my left hand ring finger for 54 years. I took it off after the passing of my wife and put it away.
When I pass, it will go with me in my urn.
I sometimes wear my Long Service gold ring, with it's diamond for exceptional service, on my right hand ring finger.
