Besides that nasty "W" word (that accounts for 50-60 hours a week of my time) and CAS, I putter in the garage as a VERY amatuer woodworker.  My first project was a gun storage vault for the bed of my truck (just imagine a wood versior of Truck Vault).  The drawers were trickier than I thought they would be, but it came out fine.  So much so that I my wifde has a whole list of things she now needs me to make, starting with storage shelves, a bed frame and new cabinets.  On the plus side, it means I get to buy all brand new tools.  It's kinda like "having" to buy a new gun!!!  ;D ;D ;D

Well, I'm retired but my Wife is still working 3 days a week. So I do some housekeeping.
Than, twice a week shooting on de indoorrange and once a week horseback riding. Some days I'm reloading for my .38 Sp. and .45 LC.  I like that job. Nice and easy to make that bullits. Both Nitro and BP. At last my time in Cas City. Mostly every day I spent some time inhere.

I'm retired and loving it. I do take care of the lawn and my secret sheep herd. Besides CAS I also shoot muzzle loaders in competition so I spend a lot of time tuning those old guns and shooting everything I get my hand on. I also collect, buy and sell collectable Colts and S&W firearms. I volunteer to work at shoots for my gun club and both SASS clubs I'm a member of. In my spare time I visit CAS City to be with my on-line pards.

We work, I work nights bartending till 3 am and we are off Monday and Tuesdays.

I take extra days off each month to shoot. 

Non CAS related activities are usually drinking and gambling, being in the business it comes naturally.

We have just bought a travel trailer and have had it out every day off since we got it.  Haven't been camping in years and it feels great to get out of town, even if it is just for the night.

Running around the Left Coast in the grown-up truck keeps me pretty busy...but!

I like to practice my camera skills (or lack of) at the local shoots, concerts (when allowed), and chase any one or more of our 14 birds with the digital.  (you want me to go hunt what???)

Lefty...tell me where the "Pony" will be parked later!   :D  That's a beauty! My wife had one damn near identical to it...before her ex-hubby's brother wrecked it!   >:( :o  Justifiable homicide in my book...or at least should have gotten the beating of a lifetime!  8) ;D 
I know I have the right to remain silent, I just don't have the ability.

You know there are four types of homicide:

Justifiable
Accidental
Felonious, and
Praiseworthy.

Voracious reader of most anything with words in a row.  Counted cross stitch (www.Picturetrail.com; the user name is "Condorita" if you wanna have a look-see). Gardening (too little time spent on that, to be honest).  ;D

I used to guide elk and antelope hunts, write poetry, lead bible study groups, load, shoot, load, shoot, read, attend the theatre and enjoy music and films...

Now I work... sleep for a few hours, then work some more...

On the OTHER hand, though-- I have a BALL at work!
Can you believe someone pays me to wear bib overalls and ride on trains?  ;D

I used to hunt once a month, and go to Fort Worth to eat and hang out with my best friends. It is football season and as a Red Raider from Texas Tech I have my season tickets and the season opens in Lubbock this weekend. But, with a new lady in my life I now spend my prime time watching her smile...

Come up with a No Topic thread, so the Kid has something to do.
