What are you doing right now??

Managed not to find myself in a ditch this morning. All the rain we had froze and the interstate was a skating rink. The semis were running at 37 mph max. DOT plows were actually in the lead regulating speed, mainly for the cowboys in pickups and 4x4s. Left half an hour early and just barely made it on time. I was right about Mother Nature’s saying “hold my beer”.
 
wife wants me to get out the mini christmas tree..its about 2 feet tall, and its mounted to a base that looks like a lanturn

we hadn't put up a tall tree in decades, that's for all our kids to do now, and heck, even some of them have resorted to mini tress as well, as they too are now grandparents

let the youngin's mess with all that jazz.

ah jeez......bah-humbug.........next, the wife will get a hankering for the electric candles for the window sills, then the wreaths for the doors, the fricking jingling bells for the back door so i cannot sneak in, and she will most certainly make sure she stocks up on Swiss Miss hot chocolate........

oh yeah, and a few real poinsettias too......even though we have like a gazillion fake ones.

dang, imma gonna need extra fricking naps now.

christmas comes too often.

my club was founded in 1903.

back in the late 1970's or early 1980's, they built a new building (i'd have to check the full back story on dates) and they got either a loan or grant, from the NRA, with an agreement in the contract that all members be an NRA member.....plus, the club gets an insurance discount as well.

if it was a loan, that's been long ago paid off, but to keep the insurance rates low, they keep the NRA requirement.

grants, don't get paid back, as we know...i just cannot recall how the club got the money from the NRA, loan or grant.

i have a neighbor that is a member...they do a ton of conservation stuff as well all over the country
 
Maggie and I went to both Lowes and Homedepot. Ended up getting a new Christmas wreath. I could not believe that a lot of the stuff was already sold out. I also see people have their trees up inside their house already. I can see them thru the curtains when we go for our walks at night. Some already have lawn decorations up and lit up at night. It's too early for that.
 
Listening to one of the best podcasts of the year. Erik Prince on Bitcoin, War & Donald Trump

Big fan of Erik Prince. Too bad he's such a hot political potato and with his contracting with China -not really eligible for a position in the administration. Also looking at the new Trijicon SRO I bought.... reading up on mounting procedures. First pistol optic. Likely will learn it and if not a huge game-changer in pistol shooting it will go to my boy who likes "cutting edge" technology.

Just returned from the range. Shot SA 1911 AOS Operator 45acp w/SRO & S&W M&P 2.0 9mm Compact w/Holosun EPS. Both targets shot at 15 yards 2-3 seconds between shots. Not great but ok for an old fart.View attachment 70196View attachment 70197View attachment 70198View attachment 70199

Unfortunately while cleaning SA 1911 & S&W M&P, found the Trijicon SRO on the 1911 was loose. Took the screws out, cleaned them applied loctite torqued them to 15 inch pounds. Hopefully they don't come loose again. Kinda ticks me off.
 
My Magpul QD cup for the SGA came today. I put it on and now the emporer has new clothes.
