    Was a great day.

    10 Spot in Royalton, MN is the next one. And a visit to his home on the lake. Gotta get some more MN people together.

    When I was a kid I was a penny collector, you could buy books at coin stores that you could press pennies in for the year they were made, I think I had 3 books filled. I have always checked dates on coins that I get as change and yes I will pick up a penny found on the ground. I got a dime back as change yesterday, it was a 1954 silver dime. All these years of checking change I finally scored a silver coin in circulation.

    I’m 10 minutes west from Milaca.

    Our hometown rivals… town sucks but they have one of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve ever ate at.

    I’ve had both acl replaced and now one total knee. The other is need of a knee replacement also. I’ve been hard on my knees over the yrs. 4 yrs of carrying an M-60 in the USAF and sports , oh yea dragging a buck out of the woods is how I popped my 2 nd ACL. And I finished dragging it the rest of the way 300 yards.

    Took the Grandson to school, getting a chance to have them " captive" as we waited for doors to open. Early morning they are calm and chatty. Oldest coming instead of going in early with "aunt " teacher freind. Saying he changed plans when he found out I'd be taking them:biggrin:

    Son turns 11 years old today. He has been working through online Hunter's Safety the last few days.
    There is a youth model 7mm/08 waiting for him to get out of school today.
