That's it for the night

Long day today -- had some lumber delivered for repairing the decks (two) and then went into town to shop for the bakery. Traffic heading back was abysmal -- several idiots driving 40MPH on a road that is posted for 55MPH. Gasoline and diesel continue to spike in price -- stations near the freeways are offering Diesel at $4.19 -- still $4.09 at home. The Canadian dollar slipped a bit so the diesel prices are just speculation and not a true reflection (unless the $CDN is also slipping -- a distinct possibility) Three ravens have taken up residence in the trees lining our pasture land. There has been a pair for the last couple years but this time it's three. I love Ravens but they are a portent of change and the less change I have right now, the better... A new toy arrived today finally. I had ordered a Kel-Tec PMR-30 pistol a bit over a year ago and my local gun shop finally got their first one in. Filled out my 4473 and should be able to pick it up in a few days. I also have a beer and wine retail license so this generally takes more time than the usual 24 hours. Should be fun - George Kellgren has done some interesting designs before and he is one of the first small manufacturers to embrace CNC machining and fiber-filled plastic components. It feels right in the hand -- very comfortable. The gun shop has a guy who does training and as this is my first pistol, I will be signing up for lessons. Posted by DaveH at March 7, 2011 9:51 PM
