Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire So, what did you get done today as a "shutin"?

I pulled 50 feet of wire from the power pole to the new garage and put in a 100 amp service panel. Tomorrow: pull the 12/2 romex and install lights and outlets.

Better than going to work.

Completed a BBQ pit.

Reloaded 500 10 mm rounds with 180 grain hollow points.

Cast 1100+ 200 grain swc for the 1911 this morning and sized and lubed 1200 previously cast of the same mold this afternoon.

Got started putting a new battery in the Harley soft tail, and discovered I don't need one- - - - -found a rusty, dirty connection between the ground cable and the frame! Now I've got a spare battery! Tomorrow I'm installing a brand new set of hard leather Harley 100th. Anniversary locking saddle bags and a round leather storage bag between the handlebars. Getting ready to do some "social distancing" on two wheels in the very near future!

I’m essential...

Worked on some 911 chit - building some autonomous vehicle/IoT emergency services cutting edge prototype stuff. Took Stella the Wonder Doodle on a couple walks with the wife, framed out some new doors in the basement.

Finished up the replacement stock for my 1890 Winchester and installed it and installed the crescent butt plate. It's finally done.

Me too, essentially. 😎

Loaded 250-3000, 260, 257 Roberts, 7MM STW, 300 H&H, 375 H&H and 500 Linebaugh Max. Poured up some hog specials - 300 H&H 150 grain round noses over part of my 4759 stash since the CFO wants some sausage made this weekend. Down to last 8 oz can of 4759 and exactly 12 ancient red box Hornady round noses now.
Did find a big bag of old winchester 180 grain 30 cal silvertips - wonder if they’ll work for next batch of hog loads......

Last day of freedom in Montana. I went and bought the hell outa stuff for the impending dome. Oh, pissed in a cup for a prospective employer. VACA about over - I'm afraid I'll soon be essential....

I drove 110 miles into the epicenter of virus city, Portland, Oregon to retrieve medication for the hound. Black gloves, and mask, with copious amounts of hand sanitizer being applied after each stop...Made it, I think. 😎

Prepping to start a batch of sauerkraut tomorrow.

I posted stuff on here and looked at porn.

Morning was spent working on taxes. Thank goodness for excederin migraine.

Later today, made dinner for a family in our church. Beer batter fried true cod. Husband suffered an injury and is bed bound for a few weeks. They also do foster care, currently caring for two infants and an older Child.

Better not have licked any door handles. My 94 yo grand mother is in an assisted living facility in Milwaukee!

Built a small retaining wall to extend wife’s garden.

Relaxing tonight, one beer in, the receptacle for the dishwasher blows. How often does that happen?

1.5 hours of screwing around in a cramped space to replace it. Invented a few new words.

I spread 100 lbs.of fertilizer on the yards and around orchard.

Got part of the yard watered will finish the rest of the yard in the morning.

Worked on trimming out a window. Took the dog and a couple guns for a walk out back to check a couple of trail cameras. Fired off a few rounds. That was all pretty good, but the best was a 40 minute phone conversation with my 79 year old Dad who's wintering in Florida. He seems good, but I'm pretty worried about him.

Picked up 8 ton of rolled barley, some pork bellies and some odds and ends.
