    Timely.  Our power went out yesterday about 1545.  Entire mobile home park was out because of a squirrel. We heard the pop. I checked our breakers, fine.  Checked PG&E for outages,  and reported  it. Checked the FB page for our park, read about the squirrel. Power was back on in about an hour. 

    How is the squirrel???  Fried.....

    The polling place was packed with a long line. Still, there were lots of volunteers checking ID and registration and lots of voting machines. We were in and out in 15 minutes. We’re blessed our state and county make it so easy. 
     

    I hope our nation knows the results the following day like the old days, before computers got involved. 

    volunteers checking ID and registration....They are doing this??? I thought big wigs wanted open for anyone.....Just come and vote....We do care not who you are or where you come from....Just vote in our election.....

    Allie Mo reatored this topic from archive.  Thanks!

     

    I thought it a good collection of information on loading brass shotgun shells with black powder.

    I just hope I can down load or print this out...All the pages...Too good not to have for reference...

  11. Jabez Cowboy,

     

    Just so my simple mind understands this long range calculation, if I am sighted in at say 5,000' elevation and WR is say 1,500-2,000' that's a change of lets say for simplicity -3,000' how much of a drop or change should be expected?

     

    Thanks for this info,

     

    TB

    3,000' 6" give or take an inch...Does that help....
