Well another quarter comes around, I'm still on walkabout.
Hoping my mates stay safe, from the bugs and insanity that abound.

The trailer camera works well, I get a little horizontal line noise when applying the brakes, but not bad.
Clean install on the car trailer. It is mounted 2' above the rear deck.

Good afternoon guys, Welcome to Whiskey Wednesday!

Andy, I don't know a lot about guns but it sounds like the gun is a 45 but with some sort of an adapter you can shoot 22s ? Good looking gun, have fun with it.

Tim,
Yes it is a 45 acp 1911 with a 22 lr slide and magazines.
I prefer fixed barrel adapters where only the inner portion of the slide moves.

Good day Alabama, John, Tim, Ian, Andy and wandering misfits..

It was a warm and dry day yesterday.. work was busy what with the governor issuing a stay at home order effective at 5pm today except for essential personnel.. seems everyone was trying to get their last bit of mulch and pavers form the projects they intend to do while semi closed the next 4 weeks.

I believe it's going to be where we won't be able to travel from province to province the way things are heading..
