Not doing much in the way of muzzleloading lately. Been doing some kayaking and motorcycle riding. Getting ready for a dirt bike camping trip up to Canada in June.

Been busy building a few new garden beds for the boss lady, got the veges in and going, tuned a dozen powder measures on the lathe and have the finish curing on them, then 3 or 4 nights a week we are at the grandkids soccer games, that cuts into my good dinners, getting tired of pizza, sandwiches and breakfast for dinner, soccer can't end soon enough!

Just trying to get stuff around the house done.  Seemingly a never ending chore. 

Getting a beef stew ready to drop into the slow cooker in a few minutes.  After that, I will start a batch of pork and beans in the Instapot.  As much as I like cooking with my cast iron pots and pans, these few electric conveniences are terrific.
 
We spent a week at Lake Tahoe last week, and I had the "Joy?" of cooking on an electric stove.  Couldn't wait to get back to my wonderful gas stove at home.  I cannot say how much I dislike electric stoves.  YUK!!!  And the dips^@ts here in Kalifornia want to outlaw them.  Goes to show how smart they are (not).

That's about all.
