Back to Normal

I dropped my SiL off at the airport this morning and it is time to get back to normal, well almost.

Still trying to track down my FiL's will. We were pretty sure his lawyer had it but his lawyer died three years ago. We called up the state bar and all the phone numbers they gave us were disconnected. Finally as we went through the things in his room we found a letter stating the name of a law office where all of his lawyer's papers had been transfered to. I called them this morning but they have to look through a lot of stuff and get back to me.

While going through the room we almost found four rifles that we had never seen before. They were all in pretty bad shape but I have taken pictures and sent them to somone more knowledgeable than I to determine if it makes any sense to bring them to a gunsmith or not.

Four rifles plus the revolver we found in his camper (9 shot revolver), all of a sudden I have an arsenal. I am sure it is nothing close to what Kim has but it sure is a big jump for me in firepower.

I see no reason in having guns that are not operatioinal around the house. There is a great scene in Mary Poppins where the father complains that the piano is not in tune. His wife (played by Glynis Johns, who I love) says "but Dear you don't even play", to which he replies that that is not the point. I agree with that, though I don't play piano either if there is one in my home it damn well better be in tune.
