Wife surprised me with an LOD front bumper and Smittybilt winch for the new Jeep - any other nice surprises this morning?

Kids racked up as usual, they are 16 (Down syndrome) and 10, I still think I get more excited than they do LOL....

I got a bowl chuck for my lathe. Went outside last light to test it out.

Guess I didn’t have it tight enough. Wood came loose and hit me right above my lip. Left a 1” gap that probably needed stitches.

I’ll look great for pictures this week.

Pretty funny

My boy got a fly reel. So I get to spend my day on YouTube figuring out how to rig this thing. It's beautiful though.

Backing 1st. Same knot (jam knot I think it’s called) to attach it to the reel that you’d use on a spinning or casting reel.

Backing to fly line you need an Albright knot. Look up the direction on the internet. It really isn’t hard.

Line to leader should be a nail knot.

PSA gift certificate from the wife.

My buddy opened the AR I built him and text me saying it was the nicest gift anyone ever got for him. Made my Christmas.

I had talked him into getting a 20 ga for his son (they didn’t own a gun when we met) but he didn’t know I was getting him an AR. When his son opened it his wife pulled the ralphie “what’s that one over there?” On my buddy

Mine too... mine gave me some spiced pecans.
Oh well.... my wife gave me a new Browning BLR 30-06. Then she said to go pick out whatever scope I wanted. She done opened a can of worms and doesn’t know it.

Dan Post Ostrich Full Quill Boots

My dad just got a new to him bay boat a few weeks back so I got him a few waterproof plano trays and they’re filled to the brim with all the tackle he could ever want. He was pumped.

Also got him a Shimano NaSci reel because he liked the other one I got him for father’s day so much.

My wife set the bar pretty high when I got a 300 WSM for our 1st anniversary. I got a good one.

I got a new football, a sweet benelli floating gun case, some new life jackets, and a bunch of nice shirts.

More excited about the football than the rest of it. Been needing one for drunk 6v6.
