Second - I really did spend the weekend on the road, gun-running. The Arsenal of Argghhh!'s latest addition to the Indirect Fire section. The 4.2 mortar tripod (yes, tripod) is laying on the garage floor behind the 3 incher. There's a "kit" 2 inch mortar in one of those green boxes. Kit in that it's all in pieces and I have to assemble it.
The hay you see is the overflow from the Goat Infirmary, which currently has two patients.
Yes, we have goats in the garage. Talk to SWWBO.]]>

Yeah, instead of snow, you'll just get ice storms.

John, I grew up in W. Kentucky with 4 seasons but mild winters.
And yet you give all that up for... California.
Wuss. Give all that up for... warmth. A poor trade!
11 degrees (Farenheit for you insufferable metricals) this morning. As for your description of Nebraska in winter... there *is* a reason we don't live any farther north than we do... The wind chill is twitching between -4 and -7
Heh. Of course, if there'd been work I was willing to do that wasn't only in Colorado Springs, we'd live in the mountains.]]>

Being a lunatic of some sort or other meself, I've always wanted one of those things. Major Unger said I'd prolly make a good mortarman, being too scatterbrained to pay attention long enough to learn how to work the big serious artillery. ]]>

What is SWWBO carrying? It can't be a watering can' it's a little too late for that. It also looks like a super death ray laser blaster.

Russ - SWWBO and I see seasons (with snow) as a feature, not a bug.

That picture reminded me of "A Christmas Story".... "WHAAAAA.... I CAN'T GET MY ARMS DOWN!!" "Oh, don't worry about it- you can put them down when you get to school."
HAHA. Love that movie.]]>

If the Goats were radioactive, would they be "Gamma-Goats?" :)
Heh... looks like my place, what with all that lovely glow-bull warming laying about.
