I kept my wife but bought a sweet runabout for 400.00 that will be ready by May when the river gets right to run.

Not a danged thing and I couldn't be happier. Got enough junk already.
I was excited by what I got from my family because it was all very personal and my GF got me a camp grill to replace the cheap-o that broke last time we went out on the boat. New one is all steel and much nicer!

I make gifts every year in my basement woodshop, so I always take vacation the week before Christmas. This year I got everything done early and had spare time so I made myself a cigar box guitar. I still need to add some finishing touches but I've been distracted since it got this far along and is very playable.

As many of my friends here know I have had a pretty tough year this year and my purchase of a Barrett M82A1 will be postponed for a year or two, BUT I start my new Career in January and life is seriously looking up for me in 2012 so why not start it off with a BANG!! I have never shot a 50 Cal before so this will be a thrill for me!!

Anyone in Colorado want to meet me I will be here on Saturday!! http://www.barrettbrothersllc.com/
