« on: July 25, 2015, 06:50:03 pm »
I just got the pics back from the developer >:D
Please add some if you have them.
I'll start with the welcome serenade by Keith and
Marvin.
Second is Pete extorting points from Glenn and Lyman. ;D

Hey Don, it was great meeting you, Glenn, Pete, Robert, Marvin, The two Keith's, Russ and many others I can't recall. Everyone was great and the Saturday pot luck was great. Those Virginia boys can break some hard rock with wood billets. Keith Grenoble makes some fantastic primitve pots. I didn't take one picture, so I am glad you posted a few.
Planning on going next time.

PS- Glenn is taller than you think.
There are no bad knappers, only bad flakes

Man looks like I missed a good one. I haven't seen Keith G in many years.  He probably doesn't even remember meeting me.

NC, Glen and Russ are from upstate NY. Marvin, David and Robert are from WVA. Tony is from NC too.
We all enjoyed meeting you and seeing your talents.
Perhaps Pete will do another fall get- together.

Steve, Keith hasn't changed a bit. Well except for employing
his feet while bi-facing.

Sounds great.  I need to figure out a way to travel around to all the knap-ins at least once.  It's on my bucket list.   ;D
