    Maggie’s What are you drinking right now!?

    A gift from my daughter last Christmas. Just opened. Very light, no burn, almost "thin" tasting-compared to the bourbons and scotch....a touch of sweet at first with a clean finish....dangerous stuff in my opinion....I reckon I'll be in good company....

    Sidearms & Scatterguns A classic find....

    The last photo is from the Chimney Tops trail. The last stretch was closed off due to fires but people climbed around a gate to actually scamper up that trail to the top. I watched them actually crawl the last few hundred yards to reach that top peak. From what I could see, any misstep would...

    Recomendations on air rifle for backyard pest control. Located in town.

    Old school gets the job done, looks like somebody beat me to it but here you go......can't beat the classics......not a single piece of plastic on them and they hit with authority.
