The CZickness XIII: Lucky 13, we could all use some.

Good morning to all and hope everybody has a great Fathers Day!

Morning folks!

Happy Father's Day guys. I'm contemplating when I should mow the grass today. It doesn't really need it too badly just yet, but I need the activity and if I plan it right, 95% of it will be in the shade when I do it. I'm probably the odd man out in this group in that I really like that task (most days, but we'll see about today).

Other than that, the kids are coming up for dinner tonight so it will be a nice, relaxed day. I am getting the itch to add something to the collection though. MM's P220 kind of has me thinking that I need to stop buying the same gun over and over in different sizes and calibers and branch out a bit. I'm covered on carry guns, so maybe it's time to explore the world of wheel guns a bit deeper. Only have 3 at the moment. An old S&W in 38 Special would be cool.

Oddly enough I get a feeling of accomplishment on doing a job like that on a hot day. It sucks during it, but when you finish, it is quite enjoyable!

Good (late) morning, amigos ! Thanks for your comments on the 220 .... I hope that I like it.
I only buy about two new handguns a year, so this is a biggie !
If I warm up to the .45 round, who knows what the future will hold !?!?

I predict you will warm up to the 45, and will add a CZ97 and/or a 1911 by the end of the year.

Same here. I feel like I've accomplished something when done and that I've earned that ice cold beer. I'm about half way there at this point. I'll take a break for a hour and let the shade move to some of the sunny spots right now. The side yard is the tough spot in that there's no shade to be had and it only gets hotter as the day progresses. That's next up.

Watch out for heat stroke !!! I refuse to do any outdoor work during these hot times.

Did my hot work.

 

[Hoosier45]

Did my hot work.

Yes, you did. Your pile is bigger than mine. I was just cleaning up some tree tops that blew down and a fence row. Time to relax with the beverage of your choice.

I swear when we were kids, my dad wouldn't even go cut wood unless it was at least 95 degrees. The hotter it was, the more he liked it.

I think you will adjust nicely to a small caliber platform.

The stainless and wood....NICE!

You slay me !

That's a great truck load of wood, Rick !

I bet that he stayed slim and in good shape !

If I liked Ribs I am sure these would be seriously good.....

Those ribs look amazing!

I don't eat ribs much, but they look very good. I'm partial to BBQ pork chops myself. My Dad's favorite and now one of mine as well.

I love BBQ pork chops, but every time I grill them they turn out tougher than I want.

I'm not a rib lover myself, but my wife has been using the InstaPot to cook them recently with a quick finish in the oven, and those things are amazing. I think you have posted about having an InstaPot... might want to give it a try.

Everybody smashes ribs but me. I am a lean meat kind of guy. No fat. Period. None. Nada. If I can get just the meat it is pretty tasty but just not a fan.
