I’m cooking two turkeys for tomorrow’s tailgating fun so it’s a good chance to drink.  Earlier in the day when I was prepping I had a bottle of 2004 Silver oak Nappa.  It was really good and perfect for the preparation portion of today’s fun. Now that I’ve moved n t the cooking phase I had a Orange County Bourbon neat (1 drop of water). It’s a small distillery from Goshen, NY and it’s clean and fantastic.  They sell at a farmers market on sundays not far from my apartment.  I’ve purchased their bourbon, rye and single malt scotch and it’s all quite impressive.  I also lie supporting a small maker trying to make a living. He also makes gun and vodka which I’ll grab in a couple weeks.  

A bit of a sidebar.  Aftert that neat whiskey I felt like making an old fashioned with Michters rye, some quality bitters, my own simple syrup and an orange peel.  I’m really enjoying this. Cooking, watching Sicario, bid on a couple pistols on gun broker and whiskey.  

Drinking and bidding on GB may be hazardous to your health....not to mention finances,, what did you bid on ?

 

P7M8, Smith 686 4”, Smith 625, GP100 10mm. 

fine choices all around

 

I’m really hoping t add another P7 to my collection.  I had a GP100 converted to 10mm and bought one converted to .40.  Now they make them factory and are a lot cheaper new.  I don’t care about that one very much but the P7 and a 4” 686 would be fine. 

The wife and I got a nice 16yo scotch going right now. Splash of water to help release the aromas and flavors. Pretty solid. Royal Brackla 16yo.

We are celebrating our Thanksgiving meal today since we will be traveling on Thursday taking our daughter back to school,  Got a bunch of different IPAs for the occasion!

Man, wish I could bid on 4 at a time. I'm more like 1 every 1 1/2 yr. guy. Not too gun savvy, so had to look up the P7M8. I mself am undecided between a 629, Redhawk (don't tell Bob), or a CZ97. May your accepted bids be low, and your glass be full.

I'm a 629 guy myself.  

Rob,

I know you're a 629 guy because I missed the one of the few you had that you posted for sale awhile ago when you were moving. I think it sold in less than 2 hrs. after you posted. A shame, because I actually had a few p2ps to burn.
