Hello,
As title states I’m not new but not experienced with knowledge either. I used to be shooter78 on the yellow and lived in a semi urban area in a nice ranch house with a nice backyard with no neighbors behind me. That’s all over now… Next chapter… my father had a mini stroke at our small farm in Illinois then a stroke a week later. My sister lives in same town and has three kids and a husband. Wasn’t hard to see the strain so I decided to sell. Unfortunately the house on the farm is in disrepair and I claimed and cleaned out a machine shed to park my travel trailer, to be my residence. So now I have lots room to stretch out and be myself. Refamiliarizing myself with the farm I grew up on has been a priceless experience. But hands down, the best feeling is being back with my family and being a contributing factor in their lives! God willingly, or maybe played a bigger part, made this happen. I’m not a religious person either. Despite worrying about tornados and not the most attractive living quarters, I’m a happy soul! So getting to pick back up a hobby from my life in another state, at the birthplace of all my hobbies, 40 years or more later has had some surreal moments of its own. It’s a bit sad that the people even my younger cousin who was like my brother isn’t alive anymore, they are front and center in my mind everyday now. I miss them more than ever as the farm keeps cranking out memories. Glad I’m here and didn’t wait longer. As far as guns go I have an aa410 .22, cz200t .177, Vulcan 1 .25. I gotta run so I’ll be chiming in elsewhere with issues I’m having with my guns that been neglected a few years.
Thanks,
Ryan G.
