Keep it up.  We need more of these events cropping up all over the country and the rest of the world!

Your right JW! It's a lot of fun and when we had the gatherings at Onebowwonders house we was able to get a few new people going on their first bows.

Ten days, 10 hours, and 35 minutes and we'll be headed up the road toward Chris's place for the Winter Gathering.  ...not that I'm counting or anything!   8) 8) 8)

I find it hard to trust a person that doesn't like bacon. :-\

I'll bring my tip caul Mike. I also have a large ham for us to snack on as well.

I like bacon, it's just not my first choice for breakfast.  Now fry one up and put it on a cheese burger, that's the way I like it!

Good news .... especially the "be there the 16th" part!

I haven't completely fallen off the edge yet Mike, but it feels like I'm close. I've been trying to get the new house ready for inspection so I can drywall. I've been pulling wire, running plumbing, finishing framing... I am looking forward to this. I need a break if only for a day.

I'm glad your gonna make it Ed. I'll try and bring you a piece of the elm I have if you want some.
