After a late start, my pumpkins seem to be catching up and will hopefully fulfill my goal of not having to go to someone else’s pumpkin patch this year
zucchini… well, that’s doing zucchini things… we will be throwing it at people as the pass by.
Tomatoes are all looking great and peas, too...
This is the one I’m keeping. I’ll never get to pull the trigger on it, but I’ve got a little memorial for him in the basement with a floral/lantern arrangement from his funeral as well as his biggest buck’s shoulder mount and I’ll add a trout rod and this gun to it somehow.
I shared these...
Lastly, for now, as I have to wait to hear back on one shotgun.
This one is pretty darn cool. Stevens Visible Loader “.22 Short-Long or Long Rifle”. I’ve never even heard of a Short-Long. It’s definitely one of the rustier guns in the bunch and one screw won’t tighten down, but I think it’s...
Just talking about selling got one taken off the list. Fine by me!
Ithaca Deerslayer 2 3/4”
This is Grandpa’s signature gun- he and Dad had/have matching guns, and I started hunting with Dad’s. Action works well! He used it a lot, as he did a lot of missing with it :giggle:
Custom cardboard...
As promised here are my Grandpa’s and Great Grandpa’s guns
First, an old Ithaca Model 37 12 Ga 2 3/4 inch. One of the nicer guns of the collection, the action is still pretty darn smooth.
Next up is this old single shot 12 ga- guessing 2 3/4”. All it says is “SCOUT”. No other numbers...
Thanks, Dave. I definitely will. I feel kinda crummy not wanting them, but I know I won’t give them the attention they need. Figure if I can make any money off them, I’ll put it toward one of my boys’ first rifle and they can remember Grandpa through that
Hey fine friends of HT, I’ve got a question, hoping I can get some guidance.
My grandfather passed away in February, and now the dust is all settled, I’m left with most of his guns. Unfortunately, they weren’t kept up, some are oddball things, and none of them really fit with anything I need...
Long time coming, but here is an update.
Got the garden disked and most seeds hit the dirt June 11th… a little later than I’d like here in Wisco, but it was the first chance I had with the move.
Couple weeks later and we’ve got pretty good growth on everything.
I finally got the fence up to keep...
