10/03/2021 Just ten more days until the official start of Fall and there are so many projects to wrap up before winter. Frequent, if not heavy rainfall, kept the porch deck wet. So all of the hours spent cleaning, deoxidizing and other prep work for staining and sealing 1,000 square…...

Ruger's LCP Max 380 Automatic
My wife loves hummingbirds, I love my wife. Subsequently, I put up a double hook shepherd’s pole in the garden outside of her office window and hung blown glass hummingbird feeders. 1:4 refined sugar to tap water filled, the sky and feeders became a hummingbird International airport. I say “International”…...
Ruger's 77/44
05/09/2021 The past few weekends have been dedicated to clearing up the mess that winter and early spring left for us. It is not certain that we will recover before next winter. Mowing the lawn, weeding and turning over flower gardens and trimming shrubs went well. Fallen branch round up…...
Ruger’s M77 Hawkeye 6.5 Creedmoor Part II
06/20/2021 Appropriate choices are a part of life… hunting… driving a car… ordering at the drive through window at Jack in the Box when fine dining is on the menu. Take the task of leaf removal for someone who lives in the middle of a forest. For the past eight…...

Ruger's AR-556 MPR Part I
02/28/2021 What follows is not a “Pry from my cold dead hands” commentary. In fact, it is a commentary on the same common sense and self reliance approach that puts spare tires in the trunks of cars and sets aside a supply of food, water and a first aid kit…...
Ruger's New Model Blackhawk Part 1
02/14/2021 Evolution is in our nature. Evolution is a part of nature and quite necessary. If not for evolution, as suggested by the illustration of modern horses (left) versus early horses (right), we would have tall cowboys and short horses, with boots dragging across the prairie. It is God’s way…...

Ruger's Precision Rifle in 338 Lapua Part II
12/20/2020 I find myself at a crossroads in life. On one hand, I really want to build a’65 Falcon with a 460 CI Boss Block Ford and race on Street Outlaws. On the other hand, I want to make a sandwich, but the kitchen is so far from the sofa…....
