That's what the training is all about.

She is getting the good at the "GET OFF THE LAWN" part, but not so good yet at the GRUMPY all the time.

But she's coming along nicely.

Swallow Fork is now 80 and starting to slow down , I hope when I'm 80 I'm still shooting CAS ...

His wife says he's getting more Grumpy day by day so soon he will fit in Here ...

I shot with Swallow Fork in Calgary, Rotten Monkey House and at Alberta Annie's. A very fine gentleman.  I'm catching up to him as I turn 76 this year, hope I'm still shooting 4 + years from now.  I'm not grumpy, I'm just glad that I made it this far.  And' you can walk on my lawn if you like walking in 2 ft of snow.  :)

Not for a while yet.

Apparently he's having too much fun, savoring the warmth of Uganda, after the cold and snow of Alberta.

Anyway, here's a shot of Red Storm, Regulator, about to prove his all round GRUMPINESS on some targets.

Check-out  "Rays of Hope for Uganda, inc  on Facebook for pictures of our new multi-use building ... Welding shop on the left and Sewing Room on the right ..

With a meeting/ learning center in the middle...

The building is 41 feet by 40 feet with an 9 foot over hang in the front, making the roof line 51 feet front to back ...

Blue steel roof , built on site steel truss system ...

Things went well overall, but I was sure kept a hopping ...

I reloaded some ammo and filled out an entry form for a CAS shoot, today need to get some snow gone and some shooting done ...

 

Coffee is hot ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ice is starting to melt around here, after the ice storm.

Lost power for a few hours, so I got out the Coleman stove and lamps etc.

The creek across the street from me is getting high, so I guess I better take a walk to see if it's blocked somewhere.

Now, get off my ice covered lawn!

Well now, snow and ice off the lawn, but I need it raked.

Any volunteers? I'll supply coffee and brownies.

Put the snow-blower, WW antifreeze and Ice melt into the shed and got out the lawn mower, rakes and garden tools.

 

Getting ready for the first match of the year, without snow, since February's Winter Camp, with the Ottawa Valley Marauders at Eastern Ontario Shooting Club.

Ya got a new class C?

Sounds great!

What kind? What size?

I'm just loading mine up for the season, starting Friday.

Mine's a 23 foot, 2013 SunSeeker, the one on the left.

I'm using it primarily for overnights on the ranges, so I don't have two long drives in one day, as per She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed's wishes.

Mine is a 2019 Thor Chateau Model 22 E

It's 24feet 9 inches , front to back not counting the Ladder ...

Mine is on the GM Chassis.

3 burner Stove / Oven and Microwave

15 foot Awning

It has No slides ,,,, The way I want it this gives you an extra 20 Cubic feet of storage and helps keep mice out ...

OOOH !! Nice!

Mine's on a Ford chassis with a gas guzzling 10 cylinder motor that scared the sh beejedbers out of me the first time it cut in when it started to climb a hill and I had it in cruise control :o

I didn't want slides on mine either. Took up too much room when they were in and you wanted to get around in the cabin. (FInd the toilet when travelling)

And as you mention, the extra storage space is handy, but even with that, I had to mount a bustle rack on the rear trailer bracket, to carry my gun cart.

I found the micro wave very handy. 

Will the generator run the A/C and the generator??
I found the Onan RV 4000 on board mine was awfully noisy, to the point that I bought a Honda 2000 and run it away from the MH, at the end of the cable.

Enjoy it Pard!

Mine has LED lights to cut down on current draw ... The Onan gen set built in is supposed to run the A/C and the "New" ones are supposed to be less Noisy ...

I have a Hyundai 2,200 Inverter gen set that I might just hang on to for a while ,,, I was planning to sell it thanks Pard.

My unit comes "Pre-Wired" for Solar ,,,,, What that means I will know better on Friday ...

We found the on-board Onan noisy to run in the evening, watching cowboy movies and enjoying our favourite beverages.

(Hey Red, Rooster and I are of Irish descent, so what can I say!)

LED lights throughout are a good idea. I switched all mine out last year, because I found I had trouble keeping the cabin batteries charged.

The solar panels are another good idea. I stuck a couple on the dash, when I'm parked; one for the truck battery and a larger one for the cabin batteries, when I'm long term parked and away from the unit.

How are you carrying a gun cart?

Gun Cart ??????

 

Haven't got that far yet....

Maybe I'll pull a trailer ,,,,,,,,, not ,,,,,, it has a 8,000 pound rated hitch though... That will see service hauling my fishing boat ....
