Henry page - snow falling and exploding Christmas lights

Post by John E Davies » Sun Dec 06, 2020 8:52 pm

I just saw this, how long has this been going on? Snowflakes drift across the Henry page, and move in different directions as you move your mouse. When you run your curser across the string of lights along the top edge, they explode. This is on my iMac, on my handheld devices there is no snow, just the lights.

LOL, some web support guy had way too much time on his hands.It worked though, I laughed out loud.

Those lights and snow flakes have been up there for the entire time I have been a member here John. They go up right after Thanksgiving

You can turn them off on your control panel....

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

I have the Christmas lights on but turned off the snowflakes, they were ok for a while but I found them distracting after a couple of days.

Since the lights have been installed I can’t use the login at the upper right of my iPhone screen. I scroll to the bottom of the page.

I've come to enjoy the snow feature .... it really adds something to many of the hunting and scenery pictures that are posted here .. 8-)

Perhaps one could replace the Christmas bulbs with wood chucks, or gophers, or something similar and we could enjoy blowing them up all year long. :D

Or beer bottles. Or whiskey bottles. My mind wanders on...... :o

Well, this is the Henry Page so I'll talk about my Henry.
Went shootin today at the range. Lots of folks enjoying the fifty plus weather. Good times.
Took my Henry Golden Boy in .357 Mag, and a Winchester 9422.
With factory loads the Henry grouped pretty darn nice at fifty yards, but when I tried some hand loads,
that I like for my Pistols, they flew all over the place. Back to the reloading bench to try something else.
The little .22 shot really well at fifty yards but I learned that my old eyes have a hard time seeing the front
sight. Guess I better scope it.
Oh well, still a great day. :D

understand .... all of our Henry rifles and most of the other brands as well are scoped .... the only two that aren't are a Winchester Model 94 and a Remington Model 12 22LR pump .... looking forward to your range reports when you find a load you 357 likes

How about turning on the Christmas lights again this year so we can blast em with our mouse? It's been too warm to snow here, but I'd be good with the falling snow too.
