My Wife

edited June 2008 in General Discussion
Made my day last night. We were talking on Skype and she asked if I could see anything in the background that looked intersting, low and behold I could see a rifle box sitting on the table, she laughed and took it out where I could see.
She had taken (as I asked her) my new to me Ruger #1 in 30/06 to my gunsmith to have it rechambered to 300 H&H, never dreaming it would be done before I got home on 4-July, she didn't have to but she went and picked it up and then couldn't keep a secret and had to show me over the computer, then right before my eyes she shoulders it and says maybe she should use this on her moose instead of the Marlin GG in 45/70, sure hope I don't have to buy another #1 so that I can my 300 H&H.
I never seem to give the old girl enough credit, so I thought I would brag to you guys and gals about her. I'll post a pic when I get home.

    She used to pull the pockets out of the pants she was wearing and ask me if I wanted to kiss the bunny. She just put on some sweat pants and me trying to be the funny man stated "you want to kiss the elephant". Not good!!

    My wife decided this year that she was tired of everybody's self absorbed greedy nature that she was seeing and hearing. (It was consistently I want, I need, mumbo-jumbo) The people that really need help this holiday seasons are the ones that are going with out. So my wife a stay at home mom of two (a two year old boy and a 3 month old girl) took it upon her self to start an "adopt a family program" called the, holiday helpers. She has never done anything like this and really doesn't know anyone in our town. However I'm she decided that she was going to try and get 25 families adopted for Christmas. Well those 25 families turned in to 40 then 50 and finally ending at 60 with a total of 151 children that she has brought Christmas to! She has gotten most all families a dinner and gifts for the Christmas and anybody who didn't have a Christmas tree got one with lights and decorations! She has almost delivered all the families I think she only has 3 or 4 left to deliver.

    So my question is has anybody else started a program like this in your community?

    Sounds like a "right-minded" lady to me dp,i think i'd hang onto that'n, if i were you![;)]
    Take her to the range and let her pop-off one of those ".300 H&H's". She may changer her mind about hunting w/it.
    Not that the .45/70 is a "light-kicker".[;)]
    Again, excellent choice of wives my friend!
