Hi,
I'm being a lazy toad today. I think I'll go downstairs and utilize my little workout machine. Then I'll get cleaned up, work on some music, and go to worship team practice this evening. What's a retired fellow to do? Mrs. BassCliff is still out of town so I'll be raiding the fridge for leftovers. If I don't eat them all she gets mad. It's a good thing the trash gets put out tonight.
Thank you for your indulgence,
BassCliff

I bet your your LGS owner has a Reserved parking spot now with a sign saying:

Today stopped by a LGS and checked out the two of the three .357 lever guns I've been considering. They are...
1) S&W 1854 Stealth Hunter
2) Marlin 1894 Trapper
3) Marlin 1894 SBL
The S&W 1854 has some great attributes (ss action & barrel with black cerakote finish over the ss) but I just can't handle the M-Lok handguard.
The Marlin 1894 Trapper is real nice. Nice Skinner (local co.) rear sight & satin SS finish. Didn't care for the stock.
But I'm settling on the Marlin 1894 SBL since it has the integrated XS rear sight/picatinny rail, and the tritium fiber-optic front sight, and a much nicer stock that the Trapper.
All three have real nice smooth actions, especially since the old Marlins typically had a rougher action that had to work in with use.
And the SBL is the cheaper of the two. Saving up some rewards to knock the price down significantly.

I think Ruger has done a great job on the new Marlin lever actions. They are very nice.
I might have given the S&W 1954 a higher grade if it had a conventional handguard, because of it's other attributes.

waiting till about 7 AM, so i can get to the club...schools are open, so the streets will be filled with yellow buses, harried parents taking the thugs to school as well.
whats worse, is the bus yard is like a 1/4 mile from my house and clogs up the highway access.
and it raining, so the red lights at the overpass to that highway, or even the streets to the club, will be out of order..
ain't life grand.......
i hate schools, i hate yellow buses, i hate thugs, i hate harried parents, i hate non-operational traffic lights, i hate rainy days, and most of all, i hate that i only had 6 cups of coffee........
maybe i should take a nap....?????

Got up my usual 3am and had a cup. I picked up my cousin from Lithuania yesterday. Seems like a nice guy. Will do some sightseeing today and then back to airport tomorrow as he will be going to Arizona for 2 days. It was nice to find out about my family history on my father's side. Maggie already had the first walk and I will be going to Walmart as soon as they open to pickup some dog snacks.

I am now 2 months post op for knee replacement. A month ago the doc did a manipulation under anesthesia to increase range of motion. Still doing physical therapy 3 days a week and I now have 110 degrees range of motion and I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I am finally able to get out and do some shooting. My LEOSA annual qualification is in 2 weeks and dove season is coming up. That knee has been the center of my universe for 2 months, man is this a personal experience to remember. Looking forward to life returning to normal, whatever that is supposed to be. Lunch with the Posse today, life is good.

It's been 3 months for me on my total knee replacement. My recovery is going well. I joined a gym a few weeks back when my physical therapy ended. I wear shorts all the time, and it's funny how so many people come up to me and tell me about their knee surgeries (you can see the surgery scars on both my knees).
