Big 80!
« on: August 14, 2019, 01:42:01 pm »
One more year down the tube, and hit the big 80 mark today!  Hope to take me out to the range this afternoon and punch a few holes!  Hope to stay active for another 40 or more!  Rules are simple - drink good whisky, and eat good meat and your broccoli!  Have fun, and don't sweat the small stuff, and keep making bows, arrows, and any other thing that keeps you thinking!  Life will throw you some bad pitches, but some good ones, too!  Happy birthday to anyone else celebrating today, as well!

Life is far too serious to be taken that way!

Happy birfday to you, sir.

That's funny Don! Nothing better than a cake where every piece is a corner piece :)

Happy Birthday, Jerry. I thought I was old at 69.  ;D

Happy Birthday Jerry

I have a friend a few hours from me that has a few year on you.  He doesn't make bows anymore but he still likes to shoot
