What do you enjoy that money cannot buy?

My kiddos enthusiasm for hunting, and the way my wife and French bulldog look at me.View attachment 758752
I see we share more of the same love of our guns, and our dogs!

Mine is the brindle on the left, Casper AKA Makwa, with his older girlfriend Adaline.
 
On a sentimental note watching my children excel at school and in athletics.
On a practical note my ability to train each morning. As I am getting older it is hard to see that nagging injuries are getting more and more in the way of some serious lifting.
 
When I first got out of high school and went to work before I started college a friend told me that money can't buy happiness, and while he is right you can't do very much without money. I also learned that most of those who said that have enough money to do pretty much all that they want to do in the first place.

So after working my rear off for 40 or so years and I finally retired I just like heading into the woods and finding a nice quiet spot where I can sit down and just watch things. I have a ledge that I can sit on for hours and watch animals down below for hours.
Yep. There's something great about waking up, realizing you aren't sure what day of the week it is, then thinking, "oh yeah, I'm retired, everyday is Saturday!"
 
Two days a week with the two year old great granddaughter. Runs us ragged but wouldn't trade it for anything. I make popcorn and we watch the kid's shows together, for a few minutes anyway. :)
 
I appreciate this entire thread! I'm touched by all the mentions of your wives. I had a loving wife for 32+ years and cancer took her from me. I still treasure those years. I found another that lost her husband after 31+ years to cancer. We are starting our next chapter.

I wish you all a sunrise in a deer blind or a fresh track on a long hunt. I hope those for myself as well.

God Bless you all,
AJ

A good dog. In my case it’s dogs! lol.

Just sitting in nature, taking in the sounds, smells, and sights. Doesn’t matter if it’s in the deer stand, chasing turkeys, or sitting along the river bank or in the boat.

Oh and I got one more. Any fishermen will understand.
That feeling when the fish takes your hook! Been fishing all my life and that feeling Never gets old, and I hope it never does!!!

And may the Lord bless you and yours as well.

Good hunting!

One fellow talking about the "crappie thump" said, "If I caught a limit every day for the rest of my life, it still wouldn't be enough."
 
silence - no birds, no wind, no talking, no motors or manmade noise in the background.

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
