I was a couple of days into a firearm's instructor training class at FLETC. I received a message from my wife that a gas main had exploded and caused damage. Then the news started trickling out. My wife was supposed to go to work that day but stayed home with morning sickness. She felt the...
Used the Flir to check a few of the hives after the several nights at 0 degrees and three days below freezing. Love to see the heat! Even the Nuc is throwing some decent heat.d snap. Love to see the heat!
I tried a garden this year but thought it would be futile with all the deer in my backyard. Not a single deer got in the garden.

My son had a storm blow over a big tree onto the edge of his barn and fence last summer. It took three times as long to cut it up because I analyzed EVERY cut. I'm scared of trees and respect the hell out of them now. :)
Can I play? I was attacked by a tree…
Several years ago, I needed to remove a fairly large branch which would have been above where I was about to build a shop. I set my ladder so the branch wouldn’t bounce and knock my ladder out from under me. It was a large branch…and heavy.
I cut the...

Best place you've found to purchase .223 rounds for range practice?
Any suggestions?
Trushotammo seems to be the best I've found so far, with the LEO/Military discount.
Also, if you're interested in getting into beekeeping, holler. We let people put on a suit and inspect hives with us to see if they have an interest. Just two retired LEO's who enjoy helping out new folks.
Run about 60 hives in 8 apiaries across Edmond and NE OKC.
With sore throat season coming, stock up now with local, raw honey, bourbon and lemons.

I read these posts and often talk/scream to my screen. I decided to provide my .02 worth. Some will poo poo...
The pictures being shown of the kids with guns are not IRS agents. There was a program where IRS-CI agents would go to local high schools and have a career program trying to inform students about the job. Trying to drum up interest and applicants down the road.
The students would role-play and...
Be careful with bees. It’s like firearms, you start with 1 or 2, then Bam!, what happened?
I retired law enforcement several years ago and got bored. I started with 2 hives and went into winter with 7, then 20, then 40 and last year ran about 60 to 65 hives around the Edmond and NE OKC area...
