Yepper we are going to be melting some zinc with that thing real soon.

Good afternoon Montanan, dpe, Southpaw, Forster, MT_Sourdough, Atlaw, pab1, newstart2k, Skunk, kitchawan kid, lurker, CJ, Bilmac,thxmrgarand, Syncerus, Mcwoodduck, Brennemanj83, Old Shooter and TY22!!!

It's overcast and dreary 32 degrees this morning, one of those rare days in Montana with unpleasant weather.

MT_Sourdough, it makes for a long day trip, but bring TY22 up with his 582 and i'll find him a gopher to shoot...and maybe a cannon shot or two.

Good Afternoon Montana!

Double D has perfectly described the current weather situation here in NE Wisconsin. Thank you Sir. ;)

Looks like you're pretty darn handy around the shop Southpaw. Hope your Granddaughter had a grand birthday.

You folks have great day.

Well I guess I am in the Banana Belt.  It's close to 60* but the wind is blowin some.  Still shirt sleeve weather if you stay in the sun.  Partly cloudy here but still a nice day for this time of year.  Average for this time in March is 48*-49* according to the weatherman.  Looking at this mess in "My" room, really need to get it squared away and do some more reloading and make room for another gun safe.  Double D, hope the weather doesn't put to much of a hurt on ya.  Montanan, how is the archery going on the shoulder?  I need to head north to tear down my wall tent if it dryes up this week.  Will check on the herds of deer and "goats" as well as the elk up there.  Also need to make up my mind on what to put up there for staying in for this years hunting season.  My wall tent is to big to keep warm when it's below zero and the wind is howling.  Later friends.  DP

Old shooter...did the Hawaii, Georgia, California, Arizona, New Mexico and both sides of Texas thing (east is hottest). When it starts to warm up you take some clothes off, when it gets warmer you put on thinner clothes.  Then when it starts getting hot you start taking the clothes off. When it gets so hot that you have taken all your clothes off, you find yourself still hot,  and naked.

Now here in Montana when it gets cold you put on some heavier clothes.  If it gets colder you just put on more clothes.

When it get's hot in Montana you might have to put on thinner clothes.  Never seen it get hot enough to to wanna get naked to cool off.  That's a good thing because, well naked on me ain't pretty.

Take a look and listen to this and you will understand why it it is better to cold and clothed in Montana than hot and naked in Texas. http://www.landercasper.com/AnyMore/AnyMore.html

We up here in Montana don't envy year around warm.
