    The shop , reloading building and casita, all have mini splits. Weather wise like CO , being at the same altitude as some parts of the front range (4650'ish) we have all 4 seasons.

    Close-ish to the equator.... Moving to Hawaii for 3 years. Everyone there says that living there isn't anything like vacationing there.... I'm really hoping it's a great time, but the move is stressful.

    I'd didn't find Hawaii to be as sweltering as AZ, TX, IA, or LA, but I was also there in December.

    FTR...cleaned em not from heavy usage, rather from sitting around in various rooms getting dust and shit in and on them. I have a lot of weapons not in the safe, how can ya use one protecting yourself if they're in the safe when you need them? I forget the members name, but as he declared....100% of home invasions happen....in the home. How can that not stick with a fella.

    Doesn't matter which room it is, at least one and in some cases two.

    Im thinkin that religion really does mess your mind up.

    The old man next door is a Preacher....and he sure does a lot yelling ....either by himself or at his wife. He even told me once "nobody wants to talk to the preacher if it isn't Sunday".

    Dude, maybe consider doing something else.
