>Skin Damages, Chuck the Vet’s Nikon Monarch Binocular, Tom’s Halibut, Picking Carrots for my Queen

Steven K. Ledin,

At our company picnic a couple weeks ago a kid fell and opened the bridge of his nose down to the cartilage. I had my truck with my emergency gear in it and was able to clean him up and bandage him before his parents took him to the hospital.
He needed 5 stitches from a plastic surgeon. This stuff happens at the least expected times, so it pays to be prepared. I recommend every vehicle have some type of emergency medical kit, and, of course, flashlights, a blanket, etcetera. I lost some skin at that party, too. Racing a

>Elk Bourguignon, Princeton Tec Tactical Quad Headlamp, Picnic, OP .50, Hunts, Holster Class, and Gardening

Steven K. Ledin,

A lot of cuts from my elk last year were a bit tough, so I made some elk bourguignon a couple days ago. It was a complicated recipe, and turned out rich and complex. A whole lot was going on with every bite. With some home baked bread and cold cottage cheese salad with fresh sweet 100 cherry tomatoes and chives from our garden the meal was quite special looking, as well as tasting. If you like heady red wine, you would enjoy this recipe over egg noodles. The cabernet sauvignon I used with other ingredients for marinade helped break

>Gun Vault GV5900 Safe and Fresh Garden Cooking

Steven K. Ledin,

I got a gun safe delivered to my office the other day. It’s a Gun Vault GV5900. A decent product at a good price, made to keep more than honest people honest. I certainly can’t get into it without a combination. It’s a bit over 200 pounds and can be easily bolted to the floor via the holes predrilled into it. It will hold up to a dozen guns, so there’s plenty of room for my toys coming to and from work. The electronic key pad on top is easily manipulated and is easy to set to the combination

>Weaver Tactical Mounts and Best Scope Values

Steven K. Ledin,

I’ve been pretty impressed with the new Weaver Tactical line of riflescope mounts and accessories. I’ve been suspect of this company since the last couple of owners screwed it up royally. Seems like ATK, the new owners, have really cleaned house and started fresh. The made in USA tactical line is a perfect example. Innovative products, made here, with items that are well thought out and usable. There’s an AR Ambi Sling Adapter that does not require you to remove your buffer tube. How come nobody else has thought of this yet? The Rail Mount Sling Adapter is another well

>Happy Independence Day!

Steven K. Ledin,

Happy Independence Day! From an old Navy salt to the rest of the veterans, thanks for serving!

Three day weekend coming up for some. More time for projects. Lately I’ve cleaned and mounted some turkey skulls for Mark the Turkey Hunter, scrimshawed some Alaskan walrus ivory necklaces for a friend’s wife and My Shirley, built a 1/6 scale motorcycle for one of our displays, cooked a lot of grand food, and I’m building some elk chili to take to a fireworks party. Took the hog to work four days in a row this week. Working on an AR with everything
