The key is to focus on the blessings and not the challenges. I'm so grateful for all the very good things in my life and my families lives. The sun is shining here and the last of the pies are coming out of the oven. Life is very good today.
I am thankful that our site Administrator and Censor terminated the Leftist drivel and falsehoods from the Socialist gunsmith SKB in the "Not Guilty" thread. However, it was once again amusing and instructive to see how that Political Thread generated more views and responses than anything else here since it started. So much for the crying complaints claiming those subjects chase people away from this site. In truth, they are like a magnet for many who complain the loudest. Go figure.
I hope everyone who did not vote for Joe Biden has a nice Thanksgiving...

And for shotguns...and places to talk about them. Shotgunner's Notebook "Our World Without Shotguns" "No shotguns, no poetry. No shotguns, no exuberant competition. No shotguns, no silent days alone, or with a dog, to merely walk and think. Take the shotguns from my life and take the books that go with them. Take the paintings and the etchings and bronzed pointing Setters and Labs with a proudly carried duck. Take my decoys and my marsh boat and my string of calls. Take my old photographs of friends at gun clubs and duck camps and at the simple farms. Take my faded coats and briared boots and old soft hats. Take my whistles and dog bells and red and yellow field trial ribbons from their frames. What friends I have, what days I treasure most, what places I think about and smile...these are because shotguns are. Without them I would have been empty. They have made my life full."
