Back in the saddle at work.  We arrived home safely yesterday afternoon.

Was up late Saturday evening finishing my bow with some tweeks Sunday morning.  As many were pulling out, a few of us were trying to get our round in for the Selfbow Challenge.  I didn't get much the opportunity to bid farewells to all of our friends, old and new.  Hope ya'll had as much fun as the Wicki clan did.

Glad to hear the Wirwiki's made it back home safe and sound.  Matt, you were a machine in the bowshop, working with so many different people.  Good job man.

Matt, I really enjoyed our target round together and I want to thank you again for the cool, indestructible snaky bow.  ;)
Sure was great to see the Wirwicki clan again. Weewicki sure is growing.

The old and the young,I think Josiah made an impression on lots of folks. Some arrow work and then Matt and family showed up. Little Wewickie had a blast all weekend.  ;) :) That boy is a mess. :) Even the baby birds had a time. Gary said that I must not be to busy in the shop to let a bird build a nest in my tool box. ;) :) :)

Matt and I worked up about 15 pairs of wings that had been given to me over the season. Little Wewickie loves Osage dust,wonder where that comes from. :-\ ;) :)
