I'd have been happier if my sandblaster had worked with my compressor at home, but it doesn't, so its still rusty. My only goal now is to get it reassembled before winter, so I can move it around easier when needed. Including to a sandblasting and powder coating shop near me.

We have tomatoes, lots of them. You need to understand this is the first time in four years we have had enough tomatoes to can. I hope to get a couple dozen quarts in the next couple of weeks. We also have at least 20 honey dew which will probably come in at the same time but that is alright. The cantaloupes have ripened so we are able to get a good one every couple of days.
Well my daughter and I participated in Urban Shield all weekend.

For those who are not familiar with it it's 48 hours of continuous operations starting at 0500 Saturday to Monday at 0500. 32 different scenarios by 32 different teams, no rest periods. It's interesting to see the different level of training and competency the teams have. It is amazing the quality between the national teams as apposed to the locals and state teams. Our was active shooter, hostage and medical components. I got a little dinged up but it was worth it.

If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
Picked up a Savage Edge in .270 (like I needed it) it's clean and looked hardly fired.
Be ready now, you won't have that chance later.
loaded several rounds of various 180gn 40 with Power Pistol, need to run them over the chronograph and test for accuracy to find my pet load.
Working on building some new target stands for match type cardboard targets (USPSA,IDPA).
Given the latest news, I better get busy and order more components for reloading .223.
Truck is up and running after a month. Chevy 4x4 had some parts changed, cv axle and shocks. Now onto the explorer.
Picked up 5 gallon diesel and 5 gallon water jugs.
Changed out my 12 gallons of gas (i had premix for auger and chainsaw, but i screwed up the mix ratio)
more canned goods. fire extinguisher for the chevy.
Did the usual scheduled checks...rotated fuel (every six months), fired up the generator for its half hour run (monthly), picked up 20 sheets of 4x4 plywood (may come in handy), put up 15 lbs of 3" deck screws ($5.00 yard sale purchase).
Be ready now, you won't have that chance later.
