Well good morning everyone on this fine day, it's a bit wet but the temps are right at 40* but it does not mean Spring is here by any means of the stretch.

Today is my birthday (biological not spiritual) and if wishes were to come true I'd be waking up in Montana also. But alas, I'll have to have a virtual good Montana morning instead.
With faith, all is possible. Not easy, but possible.

Good morning Montanan dpe, pab1, Southpaw, MT_Sourdough, Forster, ATlaw and everyone I'm forgetting. It's 16 degree's with a dusting of snow over night.

Newstart2k just drop in here  every morning and say hello and be in virtual Montana every day. Happy birthday by the way.


Therapy yesterday was making bullets to take over to Southpaws this coming weekend...this weekend still look good Ernie? Can Osgood come watch?

Good morning to all ! it was a bit chilly early on but a balmy 21 now. Had 1"+ of snow that fulfilled my morning exercise ... the car pad is 24x35' so it gets swept or shoveled as needed .

Those cement rounds look interesting .  Are you going to have a " 6 pack?"  ;D :o
All observers and helpers are welcome. 
 I will call  John A .also .

Out looking for Gophers this morning ... Good neighbor Don reported having seen his first gopher the other day . The earliest I have shot a gopher was Feb 9th a couple years back .

Off to an Insurance meeting .

May you have have a fine day ! :)

Left Handed people are in their right mind .

Insurance meeting over , 13 degrees north wind , calling for 2 CM snow and a -6 degrees . Canadian Forcast eh ? 
Saturdays Forcast looks good , sunhine and a +36 Lets hope for a fairly calm day .

Happy Birthday to newstart2k , a bit late in the day but better later than never  ;D

Montanan : you are on the grey side but at least it is warmer there  :)

Doug , have you not a nice heated garage to work in ?
Do you want TV coverage of Saturdays event ? My brother could probably manage a Camera Crew up from Channel 3 , breaking news story ...Northern millitants , former Homeland security agent gone rouge , firing mortar towards Canada .... Oh the news would love that ... ::) ;D

Tell your brother to send his camera crews up in June for the Victorian Rifleman shoot and in August for the Cannon shoot. John A should like this gun. 

Yeah heated shop, all I have to do is turn the stove on...headed there right now...16 degrees and 80% humidity and the cold went right through me just like when it's 35 degrees on the east coast, but the heat is on in the shop, might be able to work in there tomorrow.

I think I have some Iron we can use to make tools for moving and pouring the crucible.  I hope these 6 cans are the only 6 I every fire out of this gun.

Nothing but zinc balls from now on.  You wheel weight guys start saving your zinc for me.
