Bootsfishing: The greatest, most wonderful, most rewarding, most life affirming thing I have ever bought is my home in SW Montana with a wonderful view of 7 (seven) ranges of the Rocky Mountains!
Its quiet, tranquil, warm, safe and the sunrises and sunsets alone are worth way more than the purchase price.
I won't ever give this place up.
Among the small things I have bought that I have been more than happy with are:
#1: Bausch & Lomb American made Zephyr binoculars
#2: Wally Siebert made bore inspection scope
#3: Leupold scopes
#4: Leatherman Super-Tools
#5: My Glock pistols
#6: My Nikon cameras
#7: My Unertl spotting scope
#8: My complete collection of Jack O'Connor Hunting books and novels
#9: My Eddie Bauer down filled sleeping bags (they have been going strong for 40+ years now!)
#10: The 1996 Dodge Cummins diesel 4x4 stick shift extended cab I bought new (130,000 miles on it and still going REAL strong!)
Hold into the wind

My flats skiff has been an unbelievable joy. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/XqcksD34/Boat-1.jpg) Nice. I can see i need to get to know you better, DMc. I really like my GSP, Babe, a 22-250 Wby Varmint Master, 270 Wby mag, old Zeiss 8x30 bga, newer Zeiss 15x bino and Leupold spotter, Browning A-5 20 ga, Win 9422mag lever rifle and Shimano and Abu Garcia Revo and Amb reels. Those old silver 5500Cs are great casting reels still today if using mono.

One I'd say is my Peet shoe dryer w/ extensions....have put mine thru incredible use with my 3 sons and myself and it has lasted over 20 years!
Howaboutyou? Yep, the ol' Peets boot dryer is an awesome device. I use mine every night from November through about May. Dewalt 20v tools have become the latest 'obsession'. Super handy chit.

Lots of great answers. I will echo some of them.
Yes, an engagement ring for a lovely young lady in 1982.
Also a new 1982 Toyota 2WD pickup w/ the 3/4 ton spring pack along with the 76 Honda XL 350. My oh my, the places we went with 4 dirt bikes in the back, and the times we had on those bikes.
The 20 acres of ground which my house sits upon, and it pastures the horses and beef.
A Ford 8N just like Bristoe's which kept a mile of access road graded and cleared of snow, and the fields plowed, disced, planted, and corrugated for the last thirty years.
My first horse, a gorgeous black quarter horse mare. With the easiest gait of anything I have ever rode.
More modern times? There is the model 70 classic in 264 right after the classic came out.
Oh, more modern than that. A little 16 foot Lund with a 20 hp Merc, for fishin' with the grandkids.
A 2004 Suzuki Vinson 500 4x4 ATV. It gets started almost every day, and it spends all winter with a little 4x8 trailer on it which I use to feed hay to the livestock.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
