Apology not accepted. . . . we need more pics on this thread!

I'm pretty sure someone here on TGO would have a working tank with live rounds parked in their barn before the ink dried.....

THIS ^^^ AND THIS^^^ It's far from great but it's good enough, and added in with the rest of the Buc-ee's perks, it's a winner. I did NOT like their breakfast brisket tacos though. Missing something for sure but I don't know what . . . grilled peppers and onions, maybe? Their biscuits are darn tasty though and the Beaver Tail (Paddle Tail in some stores) is a great flaky pastry. FYI - Since they make the BBQ sandwiches fresh, you can ask for one w/o sauce (or very little) and they'll hook you up. +1 to the Banana Pudding. Chocolate is also very good. Key Lime Pie pudding is on the list. I've also tried their healthier snackle box options and was satisfied. Some cubes of grilled chicken, cheese, pretzel chips, and fresh fruit make for a good easy-to-eat car meal.

I used an actual card today for the first time in probably 3 months. Kroger gas pumps near me aren't Tap-To-Pay and I've been using Apple Pay exclusively all through the Christmas gift buying season and at Costco's pumps. It felt weird having to actually insert a card, like it was some old timey device.

In addition to the no trespassing signs at the gate(s), make sure they mention that purple paint indicates "no tresspassing" and then paint a purple blaze on your trees/fence posts. That serves as a legal posting for "no trespassing" here in TN. Paragraph C.2 has the details: https://law.justia.com/codes/tennessee/title-39/chapter-14/part-4/section-39-14-405/ You can keep trying TWRA/State/LEO/whatever for criminal charges but that's (1) unlikely to happen and (2) if it does bear fruit will likely be nothing more than a simple fine and won't stop the problem. Then you're back to pleading with the same folks to issue a second fine and that may take just as long for them to do anything about it as it has the first time. I suggest you contact an attorney with a reputation for being aggressive. You want someone who's kind of a jerk, not a nice guy . . .someone who loves a fight. You want a pit bull attorney. They can help you with what you need for building a civil case. The above advice about cell-based trail cams, very well hidden cams monitoring "bait" cams for them to take/destroy, etc. is very good. All of that evidence will help with your civil case for harassment, trespassing, destruction of property, and whatever else the attorney can think of. As mentioned above, a letter from that attorney might do the trick. The perps will need to decide if hunting on your land is worth the legal expense they'll have when you let your attack-lawyer off the chain.

I wouldn't fault ego entirely. The 1st gen Ridgeline was uglier than the last girl at the bar during Fleet Week. I kind of like the looks of the current model, but they start north of $40k. That's a lot for a car-based "truck" when a Mav starts at about 1/2 that and a "real" truck Ranger/Colorado starts $8k less or can be very nicely equipped for a similar $40K.

A friend has a Maverick and loves it. Admittedly he's neither a "truck guy" or a "car guy". To him a vehicle is an appliance. I was quite shocked at how roomy it is inside. I'm 6'4" and the passenger seat is quite comfortable. I didn't sit in the back but his 6'2" son sits there often and has no complaints. I'd say it can do everything that 90% of today's truck owners need it to do (like go to Home Depot for light bulbs and 2 bags of mulch) and 90% of what that the last 10% need it to do. It won't haul/tow a lot, but for a daily with some added utility, it's a winner. As for Tacos, I wasn't crazy about the Gen 3 interior (2015-2022). It felt cramped. I haven't tried the new ones. Some of the bad press about the transmissions in the Tacos and engines in the Tundras isn't confidence-boosting for Toyota's reputation of longevity continuing in the current lineup.

Do you know the throat and/or muzzle erosion readings?

Stop at Timberland Park a couple hundred yards or so south of the big bridge at Birdsong Hollow/TN-96. You can get free NPS maps there.

Me (a Vandy fan) last night. The only thing as good as the rare Vandy win is a UT loss. I didn't think I'd ever pull for THE Ohio State University, but it finally happened.

@pop pop that only applies if both are living. The OP is asking about inheritance after the owner has died. There is zero need to do a transfer at an FFL of any kind on any firearm across state lines for an inheritance except for NFA regulated items (e.g. machine guns, suppressors, short barreled rifles/shotguns, destructive devices, etc.). Those do need to transfer on a Form 5 (no tax required). That's the straight dope from the alphabet folks.

+1 to all of the above. There's a great little coffee shop in Collinwood called the Dragonfly. I'm not a coffee drinker but they have other good non-coffee frozen drinks and some fantastic baked goods. Tupelo, MS makes for a good place to stop for the night. There's not a ton there but it does have some interseting Elvis stuff and a few good restaurants and local shops. It's a cute little town.

Tom Selleck tried hard to get it to another network (even a cable network) but CBS owns it and wouldn't sell it. Not only did they pitch one of their best rated shows in the bin, they intentionally buried it.
