I am VERY happy to have Dad around and trust his advice when tackling anything and everything dealing with construction of anything. I enjoyed showing him how to reload and bed a rifle. He loves that I am so into this stuff and we are very close.

All through this pistol buying process I told him it was his choice to buy whatever he liked most and I was merely pointing out differences and such. It was fun to watch his excitement throw everything he said the day before out the window. In the end he knows if he is happy - then I am happy.

I am finding more and more similarities between my Dad and my grandkids lately. smile Lucky to have both here.


When a country is well governed, poverty and a mean condition are something to be ashamed of. When a country is ill governed, riches and honors are something to be ashamed of
