Talk about things that’ll make a tough man cry! Good on you for doing the things that result in her writing something like that.

Spring has sprung!

While in Missoula for sports, I did the thing my family perpetually mocks me for and walked through the cemetery, taking pictures and googling names.

Fort Missoula Cemetery

Stryder Stoutenburg - born the same year as myself, except in 2003 when he passed, I was a clueless POS doing nothing and he was serving his country. Died in a helicopter accident at Fort Drum. RIP.

Very cool.

I grew up next door to the cemetery, but haven't been through there in a long time.

When the War ended and my Granddad got home from Europe, he wanted to build a house. He went over and took enough boards from the internment barracks to build the house that I grew up in.

Cattle in the foreground, elk in the background and Little Mexico behind them. The fence line is a mile and a half out. Little Mexico is safe. ICE will never catch them here!

Glass bedded three rifles. Let's hope I didn't mess it up.

Such a nervous wait. I’ve had to stick more than a couple into the freezer to break them loose.

I grew up near a reservoir that was loaded with crappie. I took that for granted and miss being able to enjoy those fillets now.

Crappie, chicken tenders, livers, gizzards, fried potatoes, okra, and coleslaw. 4 hrs frying time @ different temps & replacing peanut oil.

Well 2 out of 3 ain't bad, so the song goes. The 7mm AI is in the freezer. If I would have gotten sporty, I likely could have got it but I don't trust my herculean-like strength. The other two popped out with some encouragement. I doubt I'll use carnuba wax again as a release agent.

Update: 3 hours in the freezer & it popped right out.

It’s not Sunday but saw this young buck on Tuesday so it all evens out. In my front yard.

Kept that as my daily. Payload would have been in issue.
