Beach volleyball, about as naked as you can get without being... naked. And yes, you do have to watch a pretty good bit of it to really appreciate the strategy and stuff.

My local O’Riley’s consistently has some of the best counter guys in town. They do have a big turnover though. The Ford dealer here in town had an excellent guy also but he retired a while back (he was there many years). When they get to know ya well enough that they look up the part and then turn the monitor around so you can see it, you know they’re on the right track. At the dealer parts counter, it’s to see the illustration of the exploded view to see if you need anything else, at the parts store it’s to see what brands are on the shelf in the store and what is available at the warehouse to pick up tomorrow maybe.

Now puppies. New addition to the family. His name is Liam. Joins his doggy brother Oliver (he's the one in my avatar) that's unsure about him and two cats that already don't like him.

You guys decorate it ...... No, I put it up and get out of the way, sit by the side and occasionally ask what can I get. She’s in hyper mode. It’s been a long marriage, I’ve learned. Half way down, she’s working on her third 60’ roll of lights.

I wish we had a live tree. I miss the pine scent in the house. We had a incentive with the pets so fake it is for now.

Bill try the pine wax sent cubes that you melt in the wax warmer.
They smell really good. It took me a few to find the one I like that
smells like tree. I also like the cinnamon too. Some smell good in
the box but once you heat they they get a funny after smell.

.17HMR works very well over 100. My 22 would knock the dust off of them and they'd run to there hole to see another day. Now with the 17, they just drop. I use a Hornady 20gr round with the ballistic tip.
