If you need a random part…

…Harbor Freight appears to have you covered! I want THIS on my garage wall!

I love our country fields

It's fun to watch the harvest process and the fields becoming ready for it.

Lot is people, GREAT weather!

The festival is the same age as me.  I like to think they created it BECAUSE I was born, not just when. Hahahaha.  I always enjoy the slow walk up and down Main Street and the view of the clock tower.  Plus there is always good festival food, especially the heavily sauerkraut laden kind.  We even sampled the sauerkraut pizza this time.  I don't know why we haven't in the past.  Probably because we can get it all the time at Marion's.  It was similar, but I missed the ham.

Heading down town with my homies❣️

Traffic jams in Waynesville?!

We don't get them very often… Actually, about once a year. ;) It was Sauerkraut Festival this past weekend.  You can see that it slowed things down on the map by the red lines.  North Street, 42, & 73 all congested.

THIS just might work out.

The first sharing of a rug.  Mostly because Zoe was too lazy to move when Chloe sat on her! Hahahahahaha.

Catching up on chores around the house.

I have to clean out the sump pump outlet every once in a while.  Easy, just need to remember it.

Hit the fun switch!

Some hardware has a three positions safety.  I wonder what that third position is for…?!

3,000 rounds in an hour and a half!

We had about 30 folks enjoy our fundraiser raiser for Jeff's memorial fund.  Each one got to try five toys and twenty rounds for each one. Now we get to sweep some brass!

Some random fun from the weekend!

We each got to try several WWII era full auto fun pieces.  Top left is a Tommy.  We also had some modern things like AR-15 and MP5 (top right).  Julie also worked with me as an RO.  I like the pic of her standing watch in the doorway over us all. Especially the sunbeams cutting through the haze and highlighting he cuteness❣️

Three of Jeff’s kids we hang out with!

It's been great working with them to keep his memory and legacy alive.  We really appreciate all they do for us and the friendships we've developed over the years.

Better chances?

One of the kids I used to coach in the pistol competitions wanted to make sure he won something ;)

The Jeff Pedro set!

The shadow box was especially cool.  Crooked handle donated this.  That's the brewery his son and namesake owns and runs.

I liked this Dayton themed raffle basket!

Third annual Jeff Pedro Memorial Dinner.

It was nice to see many old friends all together.  It's a nice combo of family, football, police, and the range.  They've managed to accumulate almost $50K in the scholarship fund in his memory!
