Lost a Dear Friend
« on: September 23, 2010, 10:07:15 pm »
 It was a sad day , I had to say goodbye to a special person that passed on Sunday . He was an expert flint knapper and primitive bowyer . I am so glad that our paths had crossed through a friend or I wouldn't know anything about these two primitive crafts . But my friend  was an extraordinary person who love to give to others and that made him happy the most . He had contracted a rare disease while making a primitive knife , he was grinding an elk handle that they say had a fungul bacteria from out west that somehow put him into double neumonia spread through both lungs and ultimitely killed him .  Unbelievable -what are the chances ? So please take the correct protective measures - you never know !  :'(         R.I.P. "Griz"

 I'm very sorry to hear that. That's why I quit chewing sinew, never know.
