Title: Texas boys roll call
Post by: criveraville on March 04, 2011, 02:15:58 pm
Just would like to connect with folks in this big land mass we call Texas.. Just thought it would be interesting to see you is nearby, but if you live in Texas you know that the longest drive is getting out of Texas..

It's good to know and would be fun to bump into each other at some point. George good luck hunting.. Hope you get some. My son and I are varmit hunting tonight.  Gary looks like you are the closest one to me yet. Jackcrafty that's a long way from my area.. I spent a summer in Odessa working in 85... Building those big angle iron towers that transmit electricity.. I was hot, dusty and windy... that's what I remember of that summer.. I really liked the work you did on your daughters set..

Thanks Criveraville!  That archery set is all used up now except for the bow.  The arrows are who-knows-where? and the dog chewed up the quiver.  She had a lot of fun with it though!  That's what counts!  I've got a lot more raw material for many more sets... don't worry.   ;D

Hey Gary,

I have been trying for a long time, I am a slow work in progress.
Also the same can be said for flintknapping.

Patrick thats a great attitude to have about the set.. I recommend you read the short story, Every Day Use, by Alice Walker.  I think most folks on here would enjoy its practicality.   Destrector  sounds like Odessa...  Skyarrow you will have to let me know when the fish are biting down there.. We have a pop-up camper we take to state parks.. We love the Texas coastal fishing.. aero86 I have never been to Greenville, but I hear it is wild.. Prof no you dont.. neuse  I have been there before..

We are all pasanos... Spanish word meaning from the same state or town.. When you would meet someone from your old state or town they were your "pasano."
