Good to see ya made it back safe Pat.

Great week end, didn't hunt a lick but got a lot of stuff done in the shop and some good rest and relaxation.

Miss Joanie got me a really nice early Christmas present, It was time my old one was bought in 96 and was a 94 model. I think I will like this new toy, see what y'all think.

Sally enjoying the weekend, she wasn't sure what to think when I rolled up in the new truck.
Bringing the grain in my new knife, I have found that coke works really well.

Sally making knife handles for me, She isn't as good as Sadie and Hannah was, you have to take them away from her when the meat and sinew is gone on she will bust and eat the whole thing.

This is one of them ha yall watch this moments,

haven't got it quite worked out yet but when we do it should be cool, see if you can figure out what the plan is, it will be part of Logan's video when perfected, if no one gets killed.

More shooting, hide getting a little smoke and just making sure it is completely dry. Jon making me a string for my Yew bow, 1st full brace after the tweaking and flipping of the tips, looking pretty good so far. That's it for this week, great time for sure, hope yall had a good one also. Life is Good.

Is that tape gonna handle the recoil!!? That does look a little dangerous. Looks like a very productive weekend.

Wow! That is a pretty truck. I'd give Santa a big kiss and hug for that one.

Tell Logan to be carefull, I think the bird Jimmy is holding might be protected.

Nice ride ,I'm still kickin' my old 94 around. Maybe one day I'll get a newer one. Looks like it's a good life.

I'm with Eddie on giving Santa a hug and kiss. Nice ride Pappy. I've been working weekends and not getting any woods time myself. May have to take a day or two during the week.

Debbie and the son-in-law have been going without me. They haven't had any luck yet, but, at least they're getting to go.
