I got to spend Christmas with my my wife the boys.

Got to watch my boys light up with excitement coming down the stairs.

After not having that in the past, there isn't anything better that I could ask for.

I got my Ansley Fox XE 12 gauge back from getting the wood restored. I bought it this summer and it was in pretty rough shape. When I took it for a walk near my house I found the area I'm going to hunt during PA's flintlock season.

Both are making me smile ear to ear.

nice gun --but the trees might die

Indigestion as usual. GW

PS. Forgot about the Lyman tang SA & #57 that I stumbled onto the day before Christmas.

Being the only 'gunner' in the family, they are clueless as to what 'trips my trigger'. When asked what I wanted, I gave my stock reply- "If I can't eat it, drink it, or shoot it, I don't want it"- which naturally got me shirts, socks, and a check (which got spent immediately on new tires, to replace the flat that greeted me on Christmas morning along with its dry rotted twin). Oh well, birthday's next week...

Forgot to mention I got new blades for the bushhog and a steering knob. Ho Ho Ho

"Bushho"? What kind of loose women y'all got out in the sticks down there?
