Some put me off with their attitude. I’m not fielding any new calibers but just getting what I want while I can.

I went to a gun show today. I took $1000 with me but couldn't find anything that would buy........ Prices were through the roof. Most vendors were $60 - $65 for a box of 50 .380's.

Bought a good used holster ($10) and 1 new Ruger brand .380 clip ($25).

CostCo in the morning. Then worked on cutting out part of a new wood carving I'm starting. Then onto doing a little clean-up and detailing on my '05 Corolla that I'm going to sell. Great little car, but the son who has been driving it bought a new '21 Canyon, so it's got to go. Too many vehicles. It was my daily driver for 10 years, and then I retired. Everything works, but the paint (Mica green) is toast. That color is famous for it- I've never seen one more than 5 or so years old that it isn't going bad. Should have bought the white one.

Maaco can make it look good on the cheap. It won't be show quality but won't be ugly.

Eh, I'm not going to ask for a lot of money, so the paint won't be a bargaining chip. I have enough white left over from painting the front bumper on my Astrovan and the roof of my truck that I could probably sand it down and paint it white, but I'm not that ambitious. I do want to save the white to eventually paint below the lower belt molding back to the original white. Needs a little body work down there- my FiL put a crease in the right rear, behind the wheel well.

I fixed this chair for our neighbor here @ the beach. Rhett & Hadley had a blast riding it. It works good now that I got the batteries charged up. The charger wasn't working. I used my 12 volt charger and got them chargered. They need a new charger. The light was coming on but not doing anything.

You better keep the vehicle keys hid.

Yeah, the employees have an attitude.

I bought a box (limit one) of 9 MM a while back and the last time all I could get was a couple of cases of 12G shells from two pallets they had just brought in.

The ammo shelves have been bare lately except for obscure calibers.

Yes, and I’m seeing signs of inflation...
