So if you didn't do anything airgun related what did you do today?

[Madd Hatter]

Spent a bunch of time trying to kick start my old 1983 XR500R. It's been sitting for a few months because of the move and boy was she cranky! Who needs a stair stepper when you've got a 500 with a high comp piston? It sure had me whizzing for air!! Finally got her started and did a little ripping around the property including going about a 1/2 mile down a trail that starts right around the corner from my front gate. Then I got nervous as I didn't have MC boots or helmet on and the bike was running a little strange. If I would've crashed I wouldn't have been found until I was just bones. Neighbor's alltimers wife wondered away from their house and wasn't found until 2 weeks later dead in a ditch. I'm living 2200' higher than I was and I think the bike was just plain running too rich. Also rebuilt the water pump in my 2003 KTM625 SXC and willbe resealing the rocker box tomorrow then on to rebuilding the FCR carb.

We didn't horde any when the panic started, but we were down to our last three rolls of toilet paper and decided we better go shopping for more today. The first store was empty, despite the rumor that lead us there in the first place.

But at the second store, ah, a miracle! I haven't seen so much TP in one place in a month. And good double-roll 2-ply brands at that. Enough for a couple dozen shoppers at least! Should have taken a picture! (Even though the shelves were probably at 20% or less of stock capacity.)

No kidding, they did have more than I've seen in a long time. A couple weeks ago as the panic started, I was amused to see completely empty paper product shelves in Walmart. Then one day I had showed up when they had maybe 8 packages of cheap store-brand stuff in a small pile on one shelf in the whole aisle of our Superwalmart and that seemed even funnier.

I bought one package of a dozen rolls. That will last us a long while.

I tore myself up real bad falling off my 83 XR500 back in the late 90's.  Tore up so bad I had to swear off murdersickles for a while to keep the spouse and my mom from setting fire to my bikes while I was in the hospital.  I keep talking about buying an airplane these days.  The memsahib is not happy about it.  Think how relieved she will be when I just buy a new bike!

The wife and I actually took our RC crawlers our for a hike (first time in a while)... until it started to rain... like 30 min into it...

[Rick67]

Been exercising.

I am in my 50s.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Forecast calls for rain today, so yesterday we had Daughter #4, (favorite) Son-in-Law, and 2 Grand-daughters Over for an Easter Egg Hunt. Had a great day outside playing with them and then an evening together after dinner.
 We were so glad they stayed.... Hoosier Momma needed some social interaction BAD!

Well noticed a FORSALE sign on the neighbors house. So I'm going have to re frame from shooting outside till I figure out the type of people that going to buy the house.  Previous sold bird feeders, so had alot of city slickers on Sunday drives that would get offended. The ones that replaced it wasn't home nor cared. But not sure what we may get now.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Taxes....

Rewebbing old aluminum lawn chairs so I can have something to sit in while I watch the grass grow, leaves blown down, and trees falling down.

Whenever you see prospective buyers, strike up a conversation and allude to “that unfortunate tragedy years ago.” Be somber, and unwilling to talk further on the subject.

What Else.....I watched the snow come down this Easter Sunday Morning. 


Best Wishes - Tom

[Blowpipe Sam]

Great picture Tom.
Well the weather is a little different down here in Tate's Heck.  Warm and humid.  Getting ready to go out to the garden and just sit and smoke.

[Hoosier Daddy]

I am so over winter I could just SCREAM!

Went out for a 5 mile bike ride -- against the wind all the time.  Anything to get out of the house.  This shutdown of everything is driving me nuts!

Went canoeing- first time ever- with a marvelous friend I very recently made.

A 16' canoe is a great way to maintain your social distance.

A couple of things to mention here:

  At our age, it seems be against the wind all the time, no matter which direction we turn to.

It is but ya know, we kinda broke the social distancing etiquette at several points along the way.

It's a very surreal situation to be out on trails, in the rivers and paddling the creeks; people are more cordial than ever.  Maintaining spaces, friendly and aloof somewhat, but obviously willing to jump in and help somebody who needs it.  This pandemic is a bad thing but I almost feel like it is making people step back a little.  I'm certainly enjoying my non-airgunning activities.
