Recycling Center

Took advantage of the break in the rain (in a desert, I know… it’s bizarre) to do some necessary tow-vehicle maintenance: oil and coolant change in preparation for the trip south then east. Above, a quick stop at the Grant County landfill in Ephrata, WA to drop off the used waste.

We’ll also need to flush and fill the transmission fluid and replace its filter, too. Not sure the weather is going to hold, so it might be a rainy or even a snowy-day job this weekend or next!

Change Your Life?

An avid sportsman and hunter, Tim decided to tie the knot with his longtime girlfriend.

One evening, not long after the honeymoon, he was getting his equipment ready for an upcoming hunting trip. His wife was standing there at the bench watching him.

After a long period of silence, she finally said, “Honey, I’ve been thinking, now that we’re married I think it’s time you quit hunting, shooting, hand-loading, and fishing. Maybe you should sell your guns and boat.”

Tim had a horrified look on his face.

She asked him, “Darling, what’s wrong?”

Tim replied cautiously, “You were beginning to sound like my ex-wife.”

“Ex wife!” she screamed, “I didn’t know you were married before!”

“I wasn’t,” Tim replied.

Range Day

Rather than go spend money, we gave thanks in our own way: with a range day! Here’s my brother firing my 50 caliber flintlock…at 240 FPS.

Edit: Looks like Tumblr’s video parser re-encodes for lower bandwidth. See the clearer, 720p HD version over on YouTube.
