We4nt out before church this morning, got a young doe with the 03/A3 Springfield. I'm going to have to use something different, though, for the rest of the season. A combination of "old eyes", low light, and that razor thin front sight make for difficult shooting. Got a bad shot and had to trail it and take a second shot to finish it. That rifle has already been drilled and tapped, maybe I'll make it into an "03/A Faux".

Checking if my spillcheck works here. Nope, back to working on it,.

Congrats on the new car. If you've seen the new issue of American Handgunner the cover photo is a gun by Pietta called the King Trio. Ordered one for myself today, they were down to 14 nationwide, so I was happy to get mine! Gonna sleep in tomorrow, then Friday and Saturday will be wild at work.

Survived the Holiday, went to the daughters that lived close.  Food was OK, she has really bad Celiacs and my kitchen is like the meth lab of gluten.  Her daughter and husband have to keep all snacks with gluten in the garage and eat them out there then wash hands and brush teeth. 

Her and her MIL did a good job with what they could do, but came home and made Riley and me pizza because I got hungry again and he always is.  Canadian bacon or rather pressed ham in small circles called such. Am limited to what I can get with out going to the city.  Tend to stock up but won't buy to much, Costco and the local Big Box will help by just asking, full service is a given.  It's the getting them in, no steps but not at the door parking.  One or two trips are OK, but several gets stuff carried in that can be ruined, depending on the weather that day.  So I shop carefully, I still have stuff on the list that are semi-important.  Well stocked though.

49 degrees here in the Sunshine State this morning. Supposed to get up to 66 today.

Funny, I had no problem skiing in below zero weather back in the day. Now I'm cold at 50 degrees.
You need to learn to like all the little everday things like a sip of good whiskey, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk,  and a feisty old gentleman like myself

I have friend that pokes fun at me when I say "we'll have 40-ish weather or maybe mid 30's.
He lives in Iowa and mid 30's or way less might be his HIGH.  :o

However, we native tropical flatlanders can take high humid temps that otherwise melt and render pooped-out the snowbirds. (Take I said, not really enjoy)
But I do enjoy the cool snaps we do get.
I have been in Yankeedom, in single digits, Homie no like  :o 

Working in my Loading Rm/man cave rearanging some items to accommodate a new to me artifact. Early Viet Nam era issue Air Force S&W Combat Masterpiece holster.
Sadly, collecting these things has become almost out or reach.

Just got up and had coffee, Riley and I had energy and stayed up late doing tasks.  First project today is take these patterns to the trash.  They are from the nieces wedding in 2019 just before we got sick.  He was 4-5 months old and spent the time down in the sewing room with them.  I'm sure he knows, he made a nest last night and keeps going back and forth to them or his nest with her velor blanket by my desk.
