Drained, opened, tubes punched and ready for internal inspection. Any old guys out there that know what they are looking at?

I’m probably old enough to hazard a guess.

Now, the picture hasn’t quite loaded yet, but based on your description it sounds to me like you somehow managed to get your hands on an image from my last colonoscopy?

I got it right, didn’t I??

Edit: geez, turned the page and realized I’d really missed the mark on that one. Guess I’ll show myself to the door. Again.

Much of the day was confined space/rope rescue training, then I braved the 90-degree heat to put in some miles on the bike. Native 5 Salt in MagnaCut is the right choice for this kind of day.

My Ochs Worx Solarstorm that I got from G2 has received it's first battle scars 😢 The blade was spared and is still centered and functions fine, but the show side Ti frame took a beating.

I've been carrying it almost every day, along with my Shootout, and rotating a different 3rd one in the right back pocket (today an XM-18 Harpoon with GITD scales and blue clip). I first thought I'd lost it while picking up a camper and hooking it up to the truck, but the owner we rented it from didn't find it in their driveway or yard. I went back to all the places I'd been after that, no luck.

After 2 hours I had given up and assumed it was lost, and went to fetch some more gear from the back seat of my car for our trip. I moved the recycle bin in the garage out of the way to open the car door, and there it was on the ground UNDER the recycle bin!

I had not been within 10 feet of the bin today, so the knife had to have fallen out while I was bringing gear out through the garage, and then slid 8-10 feet to lodge itself under the bin 😡 If I hadn't changed to different pants today it would have been deep inside of a cargo pocket, instead of clipped to the right front pocket opening.

So, at least these all look like users that I'm bringing camping this weekend.

It's hard to see at some angles and farther away, so whatever. I still have the arctic storm version of the Solarstorm as a safe queen, plus a few safe queen XM-18s and Shootouts 🤪
