TSCLT 7.0: Hemis, Harleys, Hooters-n-Harridans

[Wat_Tyler]

One with a sufficiently inflated rear tire.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Packed. All but loaded.


Outta here in afew minutes.


Been getting Dirty Looks from teh big kitteh. Don't tell me they don't know.


Oh, they know . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Here in the mountains.


Moved my shit in - unloaded the car. No cats - yet. I brought the right amount. I really don't need all that much.


The landlady left before I got here. Apparently, she's out for a sleepover, and perhaps not for a sleep apnea test, either.


So I got the place to myself, which fucking rocks.

 

[bellisarius]

Just rolled in myself. Hot, tired, dirty, feet are sore. Got some Dove but no Quail. The Quail were spread far, wide, and were flying early. I don't think we got within 50yds of them before they flew. Didn't even bother trying to shoot them at that range. Maybe an old 'Market' gun would have worked. 10ga., 34" barrel, full choke but would have been too damn heavy to carry around all day.

It's been years since I've seen the desert that wet and green. Lots of food out there for the birds so it should be a good brood year. Later when things dry out and the birds begin to congregate around the seeps and springs hunting will be a little better.

Oddly enough no sign of snakes. It's rare to be in Quail country and not see a rattlesnake.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Maybe it's a good year for weasels, too, and they chased the snakes away.

 

[bellisarius]

If only.

We decided to bag it early due to it being a holiday. Late travelers and last minute revelers are on the roads now and the cops know it. The State police were out in force on the trip back. Gotta build that comp time.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Tuesday!!!


Well, it was a thought. We had state cops out the wazoo yesterday, too. First person I saw pulled was by a bike cop maybe 6 miles from the house.


So far so good at the new house. We'll see here in a bit if I have to do Shower Head Surgery.


The coffee is good, so there's that.

 

[bellisarius]

Good morning.

Yeah, they were out like street corner Santa's the week before Xmas. I quite sure all "donations" were gratefully accepted. Only saw one dude pulled over and he was cuffed. Disappointing end to a long holiday for him.

A friend of mine has a Kimber. It is a joy to shoot. Light trigger pull, crisp release, super accurate and really well finished. That's the good news. It's finicky about the ammunition you feed it and if the dust's a'blowin' it be a'jammin'. Tight tolerances have a way of biting you in the ass.

 

[SpeareChucker]

Good morning.

It's a hurricane.
How many of your reporters do you have to send out to stand and get soaked
just so that you can tell me a hurricane brings lots of waves and rain...

I did like the cartoon you posted about generators, not wind,
because there is plenty of wind.

 

[Endrura]

I got nothing this morning so have some memes

btw you can buy it here https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072FQ3YN4/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=whatguyslike-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B072FQ3YN4&linkId=9ad428a8cc82b4c84d4921252cd042a8&fbclid=IwAR23jf1FFyMsCAyrca7O6FHKYlnpbWcpkv5H6lJdqRe3OUMyFP0CLqjB6l8

 

[Wat_Tyler]

At work. The drive is certainly longer. That's okay, because the traffic wasn't bad, so it makes time to visit with Allah.


I got 2 painters is it so far. I'm actually surprised.


I have last month's expense report to write and prepare to turn in, and I have a new employee handbook to try to make sense of. I'd really rather not say I've read it until I have, even if that makes me . . . unusual.


I don't like Makita tools, even if the coffee maker is cute.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It has gotten rather warm out there this afternoon.


The PM re-prioritized my work this morning. He gets to do that. And we have a meeting this afternoon.


Hurry up and wait . . . .

 

[bellisarius]

Slight cool down here. Rain forecast for the coming weekend.

I went out early this AM to do some light shopping. At 7AM the traffic was like 9AM with every one running late. Friggin' zoo on the roads. Better not be the new norm.

 

[bellisarius]

I no sooner posted the above then went out to water my herbs and wouldn't ya know it, it's raining. Let's see how much and for how long.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home!!! It really will be with cats. It almost is with food.


Grazing in, and a step up.


Work was reasonably productive


I'm comfortable here . . . .

 

[thør]

 

[bellisarius]

Happy Range Day Wednesday!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy non-payday Wednesday!!!


Moving a bit slowly here this morning. That's okay, because I slept all night and coffee will cure this bit of inertia.


I think we get heat again. And Wat has a busy day punching.


And the band played on . . . .

 

[bellisarius]

Still looking for a rear sight for that little 9mm. The part houses have them in their catalog, $8, but they're all out of stock. The manufacturer wants $22 for the same part. The search goes on.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yeah, I'm half-assed looking at a cowboy pistol. The company website wants nearly $150 more than the discount websites. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot???


I need to food shop for the office trailer. I'll take some stuff in today.


We have The Wednesday Gang here tonight, so that'll include eating out afterwards.


It's Free Pie Day at O'Charley's . . . .

 

[SpeareChucker]

Good morning y'all.

It is warm here too, but that is good for my peppers.

 

[bellisarius]

We are still experiencing warm days but the nights are getting decidedly cooler.

What sort of "cowboy" pistol Wat?

 

[SpeareChucker]

~snicker~


The kind that come in a plastic belt with a roll of caps...

 

[bellisarius]

As long as there's no more than 10 caps per roll I guess it's OK.

 

[SpeareChucker]

We must unite and stand up for Wat's right to extended cap rolls.



Everyone who's ever grown up on Westerns knows a cowboy needs
an unlimited ability to keep shooting without reloading.
