Making some sales of toys I no longer use. Arthritis in the knees mean I can't do my share around the moose camp or if we get one.

Pards. want me to come anyway, but wife's health issues are such that I don't want to be 10 to 12 hours drive away. 

Moose rifle, in .338wm with bullets, cases dies etc. on the block.

So keep off my grass, 'cause I'm GRUMPY!

Luckily, I can hunt deer an hour away, with my friend, Dr. Dr. Bob, at his place where I have access to a phone, so I can talk to her a couple of times a day.

Our son, Big Red will handle most things while I'm away.

The family encourages me to get away when there is a match within an 60 to 90 minute drive, so I loaded up some .45's for a match at Grenville this weekend.

Unofficially changing my alias to Casey Jones after yesterdays trainwreck match. I got into a batch of bad ammo. Four rifle squibs and a thoroughly locked up pistol. I had one decent stage. Now I have about 40 rounds from that batch to pull the bullets and reload. Grump

Yall get off the lawn and do it now.

GRUMP!
GET THE HECK OFF MY LAWN!

Had to miss Strangers Buffalo Rifle Match on Saturday. Had my precision bullets all weighed, loaded into carefully examined and trimmed .45-70 cases that were loaded individually with Trail Boss after weighing each and every charge.

Then a family health emergency stopped me from attending.

Oh well. Maybe next time.

No, not the best. SWMBO picked something up while at the hospital, waiting for some tests and has been worshiping The Great White Goddess.

And missed the first time.

She says she's now OK and tells me to go to the match coming up in Kingston, but I don't want to that far away, because Big Red (#1 Son) is working Saturday.

That and an upcoming trip to the Cancer Assessment Clinic next week for a problem discovered with my plumbing has me a little off my game..

Thanks Pards.

Those prayers worked the last time, when an X-Ray showed a shadow around my heart. (GULP!)

That turned out to be a partially calcified aneurism and a blood clot surrounded by fibrous tissue, from heart surgery almost 50 years before, when I was 16.

The Heart Institute just keeps a watching brief on that and tells me to keep on keeping on.

Hopefully, this will end up being something along the same line.

Our posse's annual CAS match is coming up next Saturday with a Wild Bunch match on Sunday.

I'll be able to shoot the CAS match on Saturday, but the WB match is out since I have the duty at Church that day.

Complicating that, Big Red, # 1 son, has to work Sunday and we don't want to leave SWMBO alone too long.

Big Red was around last Saturday and Sunday, so I was able to help Regulator, Red Storm set-up for the upcoming matches next Saturday and Sunday.

Man, those rigid leg braces are hot, but I was able to stay on my feet most of the time.

Trouble on match day is they catch the tie-down thongs and pull my gun belt down.

No match overalls and not too many category firsts. My buddy Red Storm always seems to ease me out of first place.

I'll have to think of something to slip into his morning tea when we camp out the night before. (We usually bunk together in the motor home, on the range the night before a match. Saves driving in early in the morning.)

And yes, we're very friendly!
