    Planning for 2023

    My wife surprised me yesterday and said "We need to start planning for next year, I want to go back to Alaska". So we have been talking about a return trip. In 2019 we spent a month there and were enthralled with everything. This time we want to go to Kodiak , Denali and Ketchikan. Probably...

    Headlamps

    I use 2 different types. The ones I like best are the type that clip to your hat bill. I use 2 or 3 of them. Lots of light and really light weight. If I want lots of light, I use an LED type that straps around my head. They last longer, but are heavier.

    Investments - what has served you well?

    I would say (as far as ESOP's are concerned), it depends on the company. I worked for a very large aerospace company (100,000+ employees) and it had several plans for employees to receive stock & stock options. Management bonus's were in stock options and I did quite well with them. They also...

    Colorado Monsoons

    Was nice this am, then it started to cloud up (typical monsoon weather). By 1:00 thunder & lightning like crazy....then the rain came. Got over an inch in an hour. I can imagine what was going on in the Mtns near me.

    Fuel prices affect

    The company I was working for many years ago (Rockwell International) had a division dedicated to Nuclear energy. They developed a fast breeder nuclear reactor. It made radioactive fuel as a by product of it's energy production. I believe nuclear power plants should be a big part of our energy...

    I also use both of these.

    35 Whelen-Powders?

    Actually my Wby uses 84 gr with a 180 gr bullet. I was just thinking of the heavier bullet normally takes slower burning powder.

    35 Whelen-Powders?

    Havn't reloaded for the 35 Whelen, but large capacity, heavy bullets need slow burning powders. I use Reloader 25 in my .300 Wby, might be worth a look in the powder burn rate tables, along with others.

    Colorado Monsoons

    Lots of thunder, lightning and rain last night! I was reluctant to believe the monsoons had started a month early, but looks like they have. Just hope they continue all summer. Last we we didn't get much rain all summer.

    Fuel prices affect

    Politics aside, oil companies make tons of money no matter who is in charge, Republicans or Democrats. OPEC controls the the world wide supply, when they limit their production, the prices go up. We have enough oil here in the US to meet our demands, but they sell it for whatever the world price...

    Fuel prices affect

    What I want to know is why the prices are so high. All the excuses aside, the price of crude oil is around $120/barrel and the price of diesel is around $5.50/gal. The last time crude was $120 a little over a year ago, the price of diesel was more than a $1.00 LESS a gallon.! Oil companies...
