That didn't take as long as I thought.  Pack duds, pack car, pick up pharmacuticals, wash the dog, load mags for the 1911...check and recheck......

Thanks for the well wishes, the first week will be for us and probably the last time the kid (grown woman now) will be doing the family vacation thing.  The second week will be no fun at all but I will get to play with a million dollar laser... ;D

If'n I play the "reciprocity game", I may be bringing home some toys....like a new lever gun!  It's gonna cost me a few pairs of shoes, maybe a pocketbook or two and maybe some special favors, wink, wink!

Off to bed, early wakeup...

Later...(yes Tom, I can tell when someone waters down my nectar!)

 ;)

It's been a while since I made this trip.  Safely in Ohio, outside of Cleveland...."The Heart of Rock and Roll is in Cleveland" or "Still Beating"....I forget, I'll ask Huey the next time we catch up! ;D

I'd forgotten how pretty the mountains of central PA are....great drive, great weather....family is good, friends are great, Godson is now 6'0"....time flies...

Have a great time and be safe.  Check the old hole in the wall type of feed stores that sell guns and what not...I'm looking for some pre 1999 SS-190 5.7x28mm rounds...you never know.  I barely missed almost a thousand rounds two years ago at an old time lawn and garden store about 25 miles north of Gulf Shores, Alabama...some old boy had brought a 5.7 pistol with the ammo in the afternoon before and the guys there didn't think it was worth a 600 dollar or so trade-in.....  You never know.....

Ok, I am going to take offense here.   ;D

Being off grid does not mean that you are without internet.  Off grid means that you are off of the distributed electrical grid, i.e. commercial power.  I live 4 miles from the end of the power and phone lines, and I get internet just fine (I am "off grid").  :)

Ok, back to regular programming.

I'd make a comment, but I got cyber spanked yesterday and am trying to make nice  ;)  Actually I'm hoping to really let loose on Friday when the whips come out  ;D

Good one Bidah. LOL Wish I was out there by Wolf Creek now with my boys to take them fishing. Just showed them the movie, A River Runs Through It, and now they are in love with Montana.  :D

Home for one night and then off to Down East Maine..

While in Ohio, I was only able to visit Dicks, Gander Mtn and another small outdoor outfit and all three were devoid of any ammo that I need.  There was plenty of rifle and shotgun ammo available but nothing at all in handgun.  Like Tom said, Kittery is not going to discount anything but it will still be worth the trip.
