    I don't use those much anymore. I mostly need something for when I'm welding and the slag dropping in really sucks. My knee board pad has all kinds of slag burns but at least I can get away from it....and those straps. They bunch up the back of my jeans, then the sweat collects and the lack of circulation, before long, it's just uncomfortable and I'm throwing them. But the boards/pads make it nice. I bought a few pads 4 or 5 years ago when Lowe's had them on clearance. They have a hard plastic backing so you don't feel the rocks underneath. They do take a second to reposition as you move but those are well worth it.

    I think it's really great you spent time like that with your son.
    I'm sure he's going to remember it for a long.
    That's one thing I regret not doing with my dad, just sitting in a bar and having a beer.
    Heck, when we were kids he would pick us up from Sunday school and go to a bar. He would buy us a soda and candy bar and say don't tell mom. Mom didn't find out until after he died 10 years ago. Its amazing the things you remember.

    Just made my day thanks for that!

    Window unit in the reloading room died so today need to replace it provided work stops calling me. Been in the low 80's and low humidity but feels hot so central AC been on for the last week. Tomorrow drops back down to high of 70 and looks like stay that way rest of the week. But I got to keep my powder dry and cool for now.

    Quite a few of us started here in our 50's and though we have now passed the 60 mark never really moved on to that other club. It is 50+ here after all. 55 I still felt like I did when I was 40. Now not so much most days..

    You gotta love it :cool:

    Work all day in Florida's 90 degree weather and then "Hang out" with Con for "Art Walk" ….. The things we do for our better half...…….. and Yes , Bourbon was consumed :hattip:

    This venue is actually in "Boot Legger's Alley" and even though we have Florida's sultry weather the foot traffic was great ….. and they were spending $$$$$ :spending:

    It's doing pretty well, pretty close to full range of motion. I can walk pretty normally, for awhile anyways, just need to not rush things. Thanks for asking.

    Art fair was fun, it’s fun seeing all the weirdos. Watched the “Doo, Da Parade “,more oddities. My main reason for going was the food trucks, $8.00 steak tacos, pricey but so good.4CA022C2-7C98-4BFC-9BEF-DE2B28A2374F.jpgE0E6193B-071F-47D7-A984-6756257982EB.jpg95D2D0EF-DE26-446B-96A9-AF4B10A5384A.jpg
