It is nice to have access to a private range. Here is LC44 and I at the family farm.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I can take enough dynamite and move it, if it needs movin'.
I pray, Lord, for enough faith to move me."

Yes, really heavy. Farm lumber and railroad ties. Had to move it with a Kabota loader. Mine is buried a foot in the ground.

Hope your doing better. My wife just got done with breast cancer.

Glad to hear she is doing OK, nearly lost a friend of mine a few years back to that.
