Some of the most visible paneling of the interior is the doors. That old beat up panel is seen by everyone, every time I open the door. It has been on my todo list for some time. Included on that todo was to add in some cut-out storage into the...
Tasks continue to be scratched off the rebuild todo list; a new pivoting table, recycled drawers installed at front of bed/couch, and the installation of the 1000 watt inverter under the bed/couch. I also widened the bed by 4 inches.
I don’t get to get out too much with the two jobs, but Moose does not let me get away with forgetting his visits to the dog park. This time I remembered to bring my camera…
South Dakota… South Dakota. It will take a while to get accustomed to saying it, but today I climbed another step closer to South Dakotan-ship; new license plates and registration for both vehicles.

Trigger Time Gun Club is one of the two local gun shops in town. I bought Amy from these guys a few years back and they treated me right. So, when I am in need of more personal defense ammo, parts, advice, or additional guns I go to Trigger Time....
