    HUGE social security raise....????

    I've been hearing people say that social security won't be around since the 1980's and yet here we are 40 years later and it's still viable. If you're in your mid 50s then you don't have that many more years to go until your 62 and can start drawing it.

    It's a Sign

    October has been a good month so far. On Oct 1st I received dividend checks from State Farm totaling $151 and then on the 8th my wife and I each got our $90 Medicare Part B rebate checks. I take that as a sign that my wife and I should book a trip to somewhere. Has everyone on Medicare gotten...

    Creatures in the garden.

    We have wolf spiders in our area. They're big, have eight eyes, and they're the stuff nightmares are made of. This guy was dead because his burrow was too close to my house.

    We Need to Look at the Full Picture of What the Trump Administration Has Done for the Second Amendment

    No one is going to come for your guns while there is a 2nd Amendment. That's been a scare tactic since the 1960's. What you do have to worry about is a genuine effort to add another amendment to the constitution that would repeal the 2nd amendment. That is a very real concern.

    "Alone" the TV show.

    Yes, FOOD is a main challenge on the show and also overcoming loneliness (missing family). In season 7 Roland Welker won the 100 days challenge because he managed to drop an 800 pound musk ox with an arrow. He did have to finish the animal off by cutting its throat.

    "Alone" the TV show.

    FYI for those who watch the survival show Alone. Season 13 will air on the History Channel on June 17th. This is one of the few television shows I make a point of watching every week. No firearms allowed but the contestants can bring a primitive bow and 9 arrows.

    Missing Hiker Found Dead in Glacier National Park Was Likely Killed by a Grizzly

    Back in 2013 I was hiking in Grand Teton National Park and encountered mama grizzly and her 2 almost adult cubs. I stopped in my tracks to see which direction they were headed. Fortunately, they were slowly moving away from me. You can bet I was very bear aware for the rest of the hike. I did...

    RVing Locally Because of Fuel

    But how much is diesel in your area?

    RVing Locally Because of Fuel

    Currently it looks like any RVing we will be doing will be to local state parks. With the price of diesel, trips across the U.S. are off the table. I filled up my F250 today and 28.4 gallons of diesel cost me $138.88. When towing I only get 11 miles to the gallon.
