It's really nerve wracking to think that a new Subaru costs more than my first two houses put together. And that's just for an Outback or a Forester.
We've been trying to sell our travel trailer for a month or so. Plan now is to take it back to the original dealer and consign it then trade our pickup in against the Subaru. Gotta get rid of those payments.
I have been picking up a few already started powder horns that I have and trying to talk myself into finishing them, but have not make a lot of progress on that.
A month and a half ago, I did get to go on an Honor Flight back to Washington, DC. That was awesome!!! If you are a vet and have not done so - apply to your local chapter of Honor Flight and do it. It's great.

PS: Jim, that's a pretty nice measure, my friend. I never did like to work with antler. Glad someone does. Of course, not being particularly HC or PC, I go more for an adjustable brass measure rather than a fixed one of antler or wood or bone or
I did used to make adjustable brass measures but after I sold my metal lathe, that stopped. I don't really miss that, either.
