I may buy a new pistol soon. Still looking at all metal 9 mm semi autos. Beretta 92, CZ 75 are top of my list, but open to suggestions.
Just one?

Work has been keeping me crazy busy. Still doing my normal job plus overseeing other programs. Was down with the flu and then pneumonia for a few weeks. Weather is getting nice enough to get on the bike soon.

HBD Gump. I mailed you a birthday card again this year. It includes the typical 5% off mowing certificate. Just make sure to sign up for the yearly service before the discount expires.
Oh, and have a great day.
I got your card, thanks. The certificate expired in 1992.

We’re in line for 8-14 inches of snow tonight into tomorrow. If we get enough, plan to get a ski in tomorrow. I was hoping to finish syrup this weekend but it’s been too cold for sap to run. Should run Monday and I will get one more boil in before wrapping up for this year.

Gumpettes 2017 Outback has 90k miles. At the point of either keep it til it doesn’t run anymore or trade. We we back to the dealer we bought it from. There value on the trade was in the range I thought it should be plus we got 2 k off asking price plus a free hitch. Will pick up the 24 Outback Tuesday.

Actually, the trip planner (WoRc) tells me we are planning to camp for two nights somewhere in the Hill City area with plans to maybe do a ride on the Meikelson trail to the crazy Horse monument. Might be an opportunity there for a meetup?
We’ll be in Custer in August. I’ll let them know your coming.🙂

my google foo was based on the sugar maple, acer saccharum
40 gallons is a good average but sugar content can run anywhere from 2-4%. It will diminish later in the season.

I worked at the olympic village during the games. My job was keeping the main entrance building clean. NYS Police were doing all the security and the top guy liked the job I did so gave me tickets to a lot of events. I also got to meet a lot of athletes as they all had to pass through that building.
