See how spoiled we got with "winter" never really arriving til after Christmas. And the grounghogs' forecast of an early spring........like that ever works out !!

Shaner,, I may have missed this at some point,, but just how big is that squirrel anyway ? LOL

I guess the weather men are making fun of us again, I know it is all a plot!
Got 5 gallons of gas in the generator, and about to head out to pick up 5 more gallons just in case....

Shaner, that was one big squirrel! Ever see the black squirrels they have up around Kent? Strangest thing I ever did see.

Would ya rather have the high winds and tornados they say are heading our way tonight? It's been really windy all day today but did climb into the 60s. Now tonight they are saying the wind gusts will be up to 40 mph even when we're not in the storms and that severe storms with tornados will be all over the state.

Shaner,, that's really cool thinkin' with the gi joe figures ! If you hadn't told me I would've bet that was a photoshop pic.

Back to the weather........I took advantage of the sunny day and re-sighted my stainless 223 Handi. Been playing musical scopes again and decided I didn't really need all that 4-12 power on my carry rifle, so i ended up mounting a 22 rimfire Bushnell 4x I had sitting idle. Shooting at 75yds I got it zeroed with 3 holes into half inch using Varget and 50gr Sierra Varminters.  I can live with that.
The 4-12 Swift went on my new Rem. 700 LSS 30-06 and I got it shooting green box 180s' into a inch and a quarter at 100.
It just felt good to be out burning ammo again !
