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

Wow spring is here, it's beautiful here in Cut Bank this morning,  43 degrees high overcast, slight breeze.

Haven't got a clue what I am going to do today.  Couple of  projects seem lilkely.  Might wire up the plug for the lathe.  I can see a need to get some fittings to plumb up some hose lines for the burner of my Zinc melting furnace.  We will just have see what happens.

I could also see if the road to the range is open and go test fire the toothpick quills.  That would be fun.

I see the knee doctor Tuesday.  First thing I am going to ask--can I drive!  Then instead using my sweet voice and saying, "Dear could you please take me to....if you have time"  I can say, "Hey Dear, I'm going to...want to go with me?"

Although it is nice to take a catnap while she drives me back from Southpaws.

Boy it is a lovely day here , no WIND ! (yet)  ;D
Currently 50 degrees with a Canadian forecast of 61 for a high today . and in the next breath they say snow showers for the afternoon .  Wife is wanting me to do yard detail this morning , Jack made more than a few deposits that need mining . ::)

Guess after I finish coffee I will wander out to shop , got more than a few projects that need completion before the "Gopher Safari's" Begin.

Hope you all have a good day !!

Gas in Cutbank @ $1.999  ,I suppose by peak Gopher season it will hit 3+$  :-\

Good Morning Montana!!

We're getting back to some warmer temps with light South winds here in NE Wisconsin today. A little overcast at the moment but looking for a beautiful clear blue sky this afternoon.

My little baby girl is off to Girl Scouts (she's a Daisy) wearing her scout tunic that has had so many awards sewn onto it that you can no longer see the actual tunic. I'm very proud of her. :)

Might go to the wife's folk's house later and get some shooting in - not the wife's folks, rather some targets. ;)

Howdy guys.  Got to spend better than 3 hours at the range today, cool starting off, then warm enough I was sweating.  Had to sight in some guns then just burned powder busting rocks at the 100 yd line.  150 22's, 150 357's in pistol and lever gun and 100 380's.  Hope everyone has as good a day as I have.  DP

Hey boys!   ;D

I already typed to DP about the wx but I did want to tell you we got gophers down here also!  Dig holes like yours, but ours got a hard shell on 'em!  ANd they're protected!  Best place to look for rattlesnakes is in a gopher hole.   :D
