Good Evening Everyone!

My Wife and I just walked in the door from a trip to San Diego. It was a nice weekend get away! We took the Monte, put almost 1,000 miles on it this weekend. I am only about 80 miles from hitting 162,000 miles.

I hope everyone is having a good weekend!

thanks chris. my favorite thing about it is it's semi - automatic, and holds 14 rounds. makes shooting it much more enjoyable and this gun cost me roughly $30 more than the basic, black composit .22 rifle they had. i discovered the stock material on this gun is called "monte carlo walnut", so i guess it was meant to be

LOL, and thats with me NOT driving the Monte hardly ever anymore...I got a company car 3 months ago (Prius LOL) But my Monte sits now. With the trip we just took, I've put less than 1500 miles on it in 3 months. LOL. If I was still driving it daily it would be at 172,000. LOL I've put 10K on the Prius since I got it.

Yea the Monte is enjoying sitting in the garage...however, I miss it. It's usually when I drive it that I realize how much I love that car and miss driving it daily. LOL

But I can't complain, the Prius is free and so is the gas. LOL

mousehousemoparman is MIA since yesterday, that's pretty unusual for him lately.... Maybe he's lost in the mouse house somewhere, let's hope he checks in soon!

Good Evening all, it was a gorgeous 63 degree day here. Took the fiance and the dog for a ride up into the mountains and then did some packing. Hoping to get the keys to the new house tomorrow and start moving.
