That's getting pricy.
I could buy a lot of beef for that cost.

I still have two Excalibur's made in Kitchener Ont. before the business got sold.
Founder Bill had the right idea. Keep it simple but functional. Wisdom that would show when the chase for speed followed , and hit bumps.
He took an elephant with a far simpler bow than todays latest and greatest.
And likely felt much better off with a bow he had no problem adjusting or servicing.
Serviceability in the field appeals to me. Far more than time in a shop for repairs. Or worse , problems afield.

Wow....you can zoom in nicely on those nuggets though 👍

That was with the zoom all the way in A

Thanks for the input guys on the Pix.....Lately I'm not having much luck with cameras .In the last 3 years I've gone thru.A Fuji point & shoot,a Olympus P.&S, a Kodak P.&S., a Canon P &S and a Nikon D-SLR. I don't abuse them,& I'm the only one that uses them ....Maybe this one will last

I still have tweek some photos as light can be an issue.
A good editing program can be a good friend.
I probably have 6 cameras laying around.
Nothing to great after 35mm then it was pocket cameras, phones.
Then the P1000.
Still no time to play with it.
Missed a good one yesterday, should of had it, but it didn't happen.

Two Farmalls.
A 1948 McCormick- Deering Farmall Cub and a 1953 McCormick International (?) Farmall Cub. C60 engines. One is magneto and cut out relay. The other battery ignition , regulator and distributor.

Not sure how old the Kubota is. 2013 maybe.

Rum Creek Fire seen from Hellgate Bridge Viewpoint.
The evacuation included the unincorporated community of Galice. Sections of the Rogue River, which is popular among rafters and fishers, were closed to recreation because of the fire.

Feeling better, thanks for the well wishes. I had fever, headache, sneezing, congestion, coughing, and lethargy. The headache was the worst!

Met a guy at the wedding, and he's a mad scientist/engineer.
He says folks have problems with the coils, and are always replacing them.
Well he 3D printed himself up a cap that will replace the coil I believe.
He will be designing one for each model.
Making a scanner right now that will do cars, and boats.
He's way above my pay grade for brains.
But no formal education I heard-just brains.
