Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Jabez: Naw, by the time I had recovered, I had met the girl of my dreams, was working for the city with really good promotion prospects, was enrolled in courses that led to a CPPO and an MBA and the parents had come back east, where they had originally come from. Now, too well vested/nestled in the area, watching over a son who needs help,(Bad birth; lack of O2-Don't get me started) a BIL and a SIL in nursing homes, for whom I act as POA, as well as my Church work. Looking at a bigger more comfortable motor home, She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed* could be comfortable in; if I find one, maybe this summer, because I'd love to come in last at some of your matches. *SWMBO has had a couple of strokes, is severely diabetic and very unstable on her feet, having fallen and hurt herself a number of times.

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Cold Lake Kid, do they allow you to own shootin irons back there in the land of LIEberals ,of Trudeau & Wynne? Reluctantly Dapper, reluctantly. Some of the things endured by range operators, trying to deal with ever changing, contradictory, whimsical and expensive "regulations", not found in anything written down, can be discouraging. Have a look at Canadiangunnutz for some of the antics being reported. The saving grace is that we still have a number of high profile people who are shooters and CAS participants to boot! In fact, I was introduced to SASS by a fellow who was in the PMO's office at the time. My posse has a regular member who was an MP and who is in the PM race. (No, not Kevin O) A good man, who I support and call a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Beard Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 It's been snowing off and on all day and I can no longer see my lawn. I've cleaned off the walks and deck twice and it's nearly time to clean them a third time. The dog whined at the door to go out and when I opened it she just looked outside then gave me a look like I was crazy and curled up on her blanket. Dang it all this snow is making me Grumpy!!
