    The area I moved into some time back was farm and vineyards, with some stores. Now everyone decided to move here and it is crazy. Saying that, always felt the need for a truck. Just moved down to smaller trucks for fuel and easier to get around in traffic. Used to tell friends I have two rules...

    Trusted Traveler Program Times

    On Wednesday I felt it was time to check on my application for Global Entry. It had been 7 months, so it must surely be time to book an appointment. Well, the automated response was due to heavy demand...... Anyway, I was advised of the current wait times. They are: Global Entry-13-14 months...

    Round Chambered…or Not?

When done shooting and heading to the truck I always show "clear". just a habit from some venues I do where...

    Best balls

    My parents are English, so growing up there was a wide variety of meat to eat. My father loved pickled "pigs trotters" ( pigs feet) The only thing I developed a taste for was jellied veal tongue. Came in a loaf form at the deli, buttered bread, maybe some mustard and you were in tall cotton!

    A different scenario, but lots of the Wehrmacht had bicycles. My friend was in the Swiss Army and they employed lots of bikes also. I have seen bikes from WW2 with anti tank weapons fastened to the cross bars. Low tech solution to transport, if the terrain is suitable. Why walk if you can ride.

    I feel certain that our founding fathers would be appalled by the level of taxes that working people pay. I get it, gas taxes-pay for road building and repairs. And so on. What is disturbing is the amount of wasted money for bullshit. Its like a runaway train with no one in the engine cab!

    PAST Shoulder Pad?

    I use the medium pad when load developing. It really helps. On the big stuff I limit myself to about 6-10 rounds. Also use enough of a forearm rest so that you sit high and straight as possible so your body moves. Building a pvc rest to clamp onto the bench so I can shoot standing. Good shooting!

    My county travel clinic advised Malarone for me. I took it as prescribed. Was in Limpopo last August. Did encounter mosquitos at dusk sitting in hides waiting for Bush pigs.

    Any other Cheese lovers here?

    Well you would have if you had been a senior in my high school . One day in the midst of winter some seniors stuffed a few pounds of Limburger into several register vents. The odor was terrific! Don't know what was worse, the smell or the open windows letting in the cold !

    Cannot make it this year. Looking forward to making it happen next year. About how many times per year will this take place? Also, do you dart the "hunter" after he has this completed? Just for his nerves of course. Many years since my track days in school.
