    HOW RURAL IS RURAL?

    Doing pretty good now. I had a heart attack almost a year ago that set me back, but pretty much back to normal. We moved out of NYS, into the northern Pocono mountains of PA & spend winters (after hunting season) in Florida. Did you retire yet?

    Travel with Flintlock Rife
