    Richfield is bad like that? We were only the for an hour or so though. No wonder the waiter was semi-openly armed.

    After thinking about it more, everything we saw along I-70 and I-15 was DRY. There were some rivers and streams, but you'd pretty much have to have running water or a well on site in order to thrive. I'd be a hot and dry existence or here without it.

    It's 107 f'ing degrees here right now. I had to find a Big 5 to get Remoil wipes because my gun is sweating just from wearing it and driving around.

    114 now. I'm gone one day and the neighbors are calling me and telling me about a dude knocking on my door, checking my mail, and looking in the windows.

    Tell the neighbors,Get the plate number and description of occupants. Call Local LE, then you.

    You didn't contact your local PD and ask for a security check? Or as we call them LE Drive by's

    Busy day here.

    Changed the oil in the truck. Checked all the service items, fluids, etc. Rotated the tires. Aired them up for the big tow. Aired up the bags.

    Changed the front pads. Sure am glad I got that done before the next trip. Pads were gonzo. Added those anti-drag spreaders. Never used them before so that took me a while to wrap my feeble mind around.

    Had the Jetski's outside with a FOR SALE sign on them. Someone stopped and asked about them. Might be back with his buddy to take another look during the week.

    Washed the car. Started to rain after I got the car all soaped up. Neighbors must think I'm nuts running the pressure washer in the rain but I wasn't going to let it sit with soap on it.

    Washed and detailed the truck.

    Heading to the range today to test the second batch of reloads (in Lapua brass) in my Rem7005R. Hoping I don't have any problems with primers blowing out.

    But, while getting ready for the range, I decided to clean/lube the barrel real quick (just a few passes) since its been several months since I got out last. When I reinserted the bolt, then cycled the action to make sure all was good, the bolt just pulled right out. The bolt stop on the Timney 510 trigger (brand new, unfired even) was stuck in the released position. Had to take the stock off to see that it was slipping off the groove in the bolt stop lever. Will be contacting Timney once I get home from the range, but it appears to be workable as long as I only barely press the bolt stop release lever, it doesn't stick.

    Sigh, wondering if someone put a hex on this rifle.

    BC: I feel really bad about this, as I had something to do with your selection.
    Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
