What Cheered You Up Today?

Been looking to buy a Over/Under shotgun for a few years now. Browning hiked their prices up this past spring so I put it on the back burner. So Last weekend I was in the local sporting goods shop and they had a used Browning Citory 725 on the shelf, looked like new so I bought it. Got it home last night, determined it was a model from 2016, but taking it apart I don't think it has even been shot, or if it has very little. No marks on the wood, no power residue in the choke tubes or even on the threads when I take the tubes out. I'm happy.
Shotgun even came with a lifetime warranty through the retailer I bought it through, can't go wrong with that.
Picture is not of my gun, but similar. Now I need to get out a break some clay pigeons.

Got two of those Browning over and unders that were my dads, 12 and 20 gauge. Absolutely beautiful guns. Last time he used them was no later than the mid 1960's because I don't even remember it, so my guess is that they're from the mid to late 1950's.
I've got to get out and try then out sometime
 
I was cheered today by the fact that one of the most beautiful creatures I have ever been privileged to live with is no longer is in pain and no longer has the indignity of having to be carried outside to use the bathroom. That bad portion of her life was mercifully short. I'd like to think I was at last the companion that was worthy of a dog like her.

Replaced the 2010 Ford Escape I have that has 256,000 on a 3.0 V6 with a 2015 Chevy Colorado with 48,000 one user miles one it. Nice to have a vehicle again that I don't have to stop and add oil to as I drive it (well, not quite that bad, but its close) and don't have to listed to what I think is the timing chain rattle at stop lights.
 
Remember those old Car X commerials, Rattle, Rattle, Thunder, Clatter, Boom, Boom, Boom, don't worry call the Car X man, well that was the noises my Ford Escape was making.
