Post by: YosemiteBen on August 12, 2016, 12:55:56 pm
This weekend is Yosemite's 6TH Annual Knapping event. Some of the regulars are returning and about a half Dozen New folks coming in this year! Always an exciting time! Many thanks to le0n for the t-shirt design - I have not forgotten your box of rocks...

Well, Ben, don't forget we like pictures. You guys have fun, I couldn't think of a better place to knap.

Yeah, pictures!  Oh man, that would be a fun one to make.  I wish school started in September and not August...someday!

Ok - Here are a few from my friend Ken Peek.

First one is me and my SO! She handled dealing with the t-shirts we got this year. I still gotta send le0n a box of rocks! Everyone really liked the design.

Few more

Had one guy from Oregon... DJ Rogers - works at the Oregon country Faire too.

Couple of guys this year were kind of lame ducks. They came for the event but did not do much knappin.  Since I was the supervisor of the day on that Saturday I did not get much done then either.

No matter - a good time was had by all!
