My labors on Labor day.......
 
Well, since I was on call for the hospital and couldn't go anywhere, and since I put in a 73 hour week last week, I did a few things that I have been meaning to do for a while now......I casted up some round balls in .54 & .62 caliber, some 12 gauge shotgun slugs, and some .54 cal minies. I also found time to scrounge some wheel wieghts from the local tire stores (about 8 ingots worth) and finished stripping & priming my duck boat......I also managed to get the a coat of paint on the boat and the lawn mowed, and did a couple of loads of laundry for the wife!:)
Pretty productive "Labor" day!;)

It's amazing how fast we CAN work when it finally hits us:

Mr. 16 gauge,

I think you got a lot done on Labor Day.

Today, I picked 112.75 pounds of tomatoes from our 80 plants in the garden. (I picked 81 pounds 2 days ago and 82 pounds three days before that). Yes, we are canning salsa, tomatoes, pizza sauce, etc.

For an encore on Labor Day, I dug up a wheelbarrow load of potatoes.

Happy Labor Day to all.

Adam

Then my truck was overheating...bleh....

Your day sounds like more fun.....I still gotta get around to mounting my RCBS press on my work bench!!!
