Title: Silver River Knapp-Inn, Ocala FL (Pictures?)
Post by: Parnell on February 23, 2015, 08:50:40 am

I was so busy knapping that I didn't get a single picture.  Sorry guys.  Did anyone take any photos?  Tim, Roger?

This was a really good event.  The Silver Springs Park and Museum are really top notch.  The museum is astounding and full of artifacts.  Natural history as well as human up through the "Old Florida" attraction that the park once was. 

The vending situation was really good and I picked up about 18 lbs. of Georgetown and a six lb. piece of rootbeer.  Nice stuff.  Really looking forward to what will come out of it with the spalls coming off beautifully.

Weird not seeing Mullet!

Anyhow, if you guys grabbed pictures...

and my dad throwing some hatchets.  Looks like the hatchet is about to soar over the target
