Postscripted, one week later:09 Feb.: Thought I would try a quick hand at some rock hunting, so I went out to Acton, supposedly an agate sight. Too much private property, so I crossed over SR14 to go up Red Rover Mine Road (North), dead ends again at, yup, more private property. Up Sand Canyon Rd. (this is rather nice, attractive properties, oaks), down Little Tujunga, home. Just a leisurely afternoon drive!!

...we all went out to see Kevin at the "Aca Deca Super Quiz" today (Saturday). Quite a crowd and more excitement than I expected. The theme was the Lewis & Clark Expedition, this year marking the Bicentennial, and boy were those questions tough! I only answered 14 of the 30 correctly, and many of those by inference (read: guessing!!). They finished around 17th (top half) this event, they'll find out the final from all events Thursday...

...just what is "plaintive supplication?"

...another brutal UB beating tonight!! Maybe I should stick to tournaments...

...not a good UB night!!!

...used my one day off (yesterday) to thoroughly clean my pistol...gotta stop waiting so long before cleaning,doesn't appear to hurt but is just a bad habit nevertheless...always have doubts about the seating of the sear spring...gun does pass the safety check, just function-fire...

Job's Peak Ranch: Real Estate Property in Minden, Gardnerville, Carson Valley at the Base of Lake Tahoe near Genoa in Nevada.

...Man, how sweet it would be to have a place here! Seriously, some think of it as strange, but this whole area,the Comstock Lode,the mythical "Ponderosa,"et al,just enthralls me!! Someday...
