    I thought i'd take some time and do an update. I've been out here in SD for just over 2 months now. I took an academic position out here that had great pay and benefits far and above what IU would have ever done. It's a pretty interesting place, not as flat as I had expected but actually very rolling terrain. I work out of Brookings but spend one day in Sioux Falls teaching, they are about 50 miles apart but the speed limit is 80mph so you can make it in pretty short order and they offer motor pool vehicles as well! Sioux Falls is a decent sized city with anything you would need shopping/entertainment wise. I'm on the far eastern part of the state not far from the MN border but I need to check out west, the Badlands, Deadwood, Rushmore etc.

    It took me about a day to scope out all the gun shops lol. In Brookings we have a nice LGS right on main street, i've already had two guns shipped there. On one side of town there's a trap range and on the north east side there's a nice rifle and pistol club I should be able to stretch out the Bergara finally. As far as Sioux Falls they have a some nice LGS's and a place called Scheels. Scheels is awesome the first floor is pretty much clothing and sports gear and the second floor is basically a Cabela's, they have a good selection of used guns too, prices are surprising for a box store. Gun laws are good out here as far as I can tell. Their 'permit' system is basically three tiers. They have constitutional carry if that's good enough for you, then you can get a 'Gold' card which is basically like our permit, no training required (NICS check exempt) and good in 32 states. Then you can get an 'enhanced' card which requires training and is good for 37 states. Each version is good for five years and about 100-150.00 respectively however there is a Senate bill right now to reduce that to 0.00.

    There's also an interesting bill to redefine 'loaded' as just not a round in the chamber, and a bill to further clarify the burden of proof for stand your ground laws. The housing market here like everyplace else is crazy. Getting a house built out here is different than what is often the case in IN. Instead of one builder owning the neighborhood and giving you the choice of several home designs realtors seem to own the properties and you use your own custom builder.
    Glad it's working out for you.:yesway:

    I've ordered some stuff from Scheels, cool place.

    No Mulligans w/o an explanation of why you shot your phone?
    Well actually didn't shoot it but .. it had a otterbox on it and they're supposed to be bulletproof.

    I was sitting on the back porch watching the eagles with it on my knee(only 2' ish off the deck) and the dog got rambunctious and knocked it to the floor. It didn't break or crack anything on it but it had a blank screen and wouldn't do anything. Wouldn't turn on, make noise, or show any functions on the screen. I did try plugging it in to the charger but only got a flashing battery symbol on the screen. Dropped it off to get fixed and finally updated to the S22 when the AT&T called and said they got some stock in. Hopefully I'll get it back fixed and be able to extract all the info and pics off of it and then turn it in for trade in value.

    I guess I didn't need a bullet to find out it wasn't bulletproof.

    I went to Scheels while on a business trip in Fargo. Pretty cool place. That said I flew out of Indy and it was 91 degrees, when I landed in Fargo it was 41. Don't think I could survive living out there in the real winter time.

    Sounds nice, congrats.

    You're a member at my house. I won't be home Tuesday in the AM but Barb will be there and I'll be home from work later.

    Thank you very much for the offer. I'm waiting to find out if my buddy is going to take the day off so we can head over to Fall Creek in Anderson where he's a member. If not, I'll contact you about heading your way... :yesway:
