~ Memorial Day, 2021 ~

I have no pockets on my slacks for work so I keep

these little tools clipped to my water bottle with a Nite Ize

carabiner/cap lifter. Every tool on earth these days just

HAS to have cap lifter for whatever reason.

The silver tool on the left is a Nite Ize DoohicKey Key (don't

waste your money). To it's immediate right is a P-38 can opener,

ALWAYS worth the money. Last but not least is the Gerber Shard.

It has proved itself to be worth carrying several times, the last being

it's emergency use of the Phillips-head screwdriver.

With this setup I am the envy of all my
friends and some acquaintances.

I'm bettin' this stuff would be
good with orange juice.

These big spiders (whatever kind they are) really

LOVE to hang out on this cactus.

I miss Radio Shack. They always had the parts you would need. When

I was about 12 years old my dad bought me a great little Realistic brand

tuner and some very nice in cabinet speakers (I cannot remember the maker)
for Christmas.

It was perfect for a person that age.

 I still have a handheld CB radio/scanner from Radio Shack.

I think I have a police scanner as well... somewhere.

This is my Radio Shack battery checker. If you don't have a battery

checker, you have probably wasted a bit of money one way or another.

P.S. Of course the Radio Shack
store pictured here is no longer in business.

 
This is the McDonald's with a
cool clubhouse on top of it.

I took this picture of a deserted building.

This is an old Regency Z60 police scanner that I have/had. It
has a radio with a timer built into it too. I used to wake up to the
greatest country music every morning with this thing. I am not sure
where it is now. I think I might have given it to my son. I bought it

out in the San Fernando Valley some 35 years ago.

In the smaller town that I lived in it was great to be able

to listen to what was going on around you.

Not that much at the time though.
