hu,I thought it was already open.  The motor came in for the sharpening set up,it should work nice,now need to get it put together and find a good place to mount it.Thanks Joe.
We ought to be able to get them knives razor sharp now. Some good looking trees David,a couple of them looked really good if the rings are good,can't know that till you put a saw in
them. Be sure and seal the ends when you get them on the ground and split in at least half would be good also.

Pappy:  Glad to hear UPS didn't let me down!  Once you get the wheels mounted you will have to keep an eye out for those pit rascals as they will be wanting to hijack the grinding wheels for abraders!   Have you heard if Frank is going to have another bow building class this year?  Joe

You mean David Kinght,if so yes I talked to him yesterday and he said he would be there Wed.
and was going to start a few early if they wanted to ,just so it wouldn't get so busy and all be ready to tiller at the same time. I told him I thought you wanted to get the boy in on one of the class's. Ya I want to put it a special place and we sure need to keep an eye on it.May try and figure some kind of lock out to keep the kids off of it.Just for safety sake. Thank again.

Hello Fellas believe it or not it was 80 here on Wednesday and 58 yesterday.

 This is to all of you guys. I'm a new guy here and I want to tell you all that I have been eating this stuff up. I really enjoy reading these post and looking at these great pictures. Pappy, like a lot of other guys, I am so envious of you and your buddies down there. I particularly would like to thank you for all of the effort you are putting into these post. I wish I were closer.
I was wondering if any of you guys ever get to the Whitingham Traditional Shoot here in New Jersey in early April. It is, I am told, one of the better shoots around. If so, I would like to hook up with some of you like minded Traditional and Primitive guys.

[Pappy]

Thanks Bighornangler glad you enjoy. We had a great weekend,it was long but fun.We went down to AL. to a shoot this weekend,the first road trip of the year.Great time and got to see some old friends,Seen Eric and his beautiful wife and Mike[Yazoo] and his dad along with meeting some new folks. Don't have a lot of picture ,cause we didn't get much done in the shop.
Just some good food and a good camp fire.I think Jesse and Josh were down Sat. and done a little napping at least there was some sign they had been there,like all my stuff left out.
That is Jesse's MO. Hope yall had a good one.

Good fire Friday evening,it was cold down there,also some good Venison Chile,Woody got a new scope and he was checking it out. Sadie enjoys the fire I think more than we do.
 Woody trying to give BigA a shave before the road trip.We left about 4am and BigA and Alex looked a little sleepy eyed.

Then I get back and find this in my vice,I could tell Josh had been there. Looks like someone got something done in the shop.

Then back to the club and by the fire Sat. night .We got back about 8pm. Woody and BigA went out Sunday morning for the last day of the Tree Rat season,Haven't heard how they did but I did hear some shooting before I left to go home. It was a good road trip and I really enjoyed it but I always miss being at the cabin on the weekends. That about it for the weekend,nice weather and got that trip behind us so now we can focus on getting ready for the Classic.Life is good.
