Re: BigSky56.
Some old buddies of mine from Florida and Alabama met me in Montana for 10 days of fishing, riding Harleys, etc in Sept, and I got to thinking about BigSky56. We were a little southeast of the Cabinet Wilderness area. Hope he's doing okay.

I've had the same experience when I ordered in a gun from Cabelas. I waited WAY longer than was necessary. As I recall it was pushing 2 hours. Every time I see a gun in there I like, I go look for it at several other stores in my area.

Re: CPAP question
I've got a Resmed S9 CPAP, and the power supply I take with me to run on 12 volt is a Resmed part# R360-792 (DA-90B24). Looks just like my one for the house, except is has black and red battery clamps instead of a 120V cord. Came in handy 2 or 3 times at home when we had power outages that lasted a ...
