J.W.; You should be getting my check either, tomorrow, or Saturday. Del, forget the bows, just load up with as much English flint as you can bring.
Besides the baggage Apes at the Airport will just take turns trying to break them. You can trade for a bow, at the classic.
Or at least for a good stave.
Have a safe, and enjoyable trip, and enjoy the Classic. Never been there, can't afford to, and at the moment even if I could, I could not, because I have to go to Montana, and take care of cleaning up around my house, and being there, when some Friends go out there. One day, I will try to make it there. Everyone that has been has just been raving about it, and wanting to go back. I do believe that you will be thoroughly overwhelmed, and treated as quite the royal guest. Of course it may seem like that, but I believe that local crowd will just crowd around you to hear you speak. "He shore do speak funny don't he?" Yep, he don't talk so too pretty good as we'uns do. " But he is a nice fellar. Makes sum nice bows too. Wonder if'n he brought any of that dark flint they have over thar in angland? Like to try a piece er that, fer a arra head, or knife. Wonder if he's ever had any shine? Wal, gol darn, lets, get im sum!" "I like when he says, "Oy, Mate, you got another ale?" "Thet thar, jes tares me up!" "Yep, I thank it were wurth it to brang him over here. Seems to be enjoyin hisself." Yep, that "thar were a good idear, that ol Boy, J.W. came up with!" We gotta see about getting that German Feller over here now." Hey wouldn't that be sumthin to hear, with them two trying to talk together?!" "Oh, and whut about that there Dutch feller, that makes the slingshots?" Oh yeah, Del, I think you will be holding court quite well. You can drop into a bit of Cockney, and confuse the heck out of them.
Or throw in a bit of Welsh!
Have a great time, I know everyone that is going is looking forward to meeting you. Oh, the beer, here is MUCH cheaper than in England! Also Pappy has connections!
You can do the mile, at the classic. It will be in somewhat of a circle, but nonetheless it can be done!
