Thanks and yes it was. ;) I am headed back this morning for a couple of day, nothing much planned except a little more clean up and pick up, we do plan to shoot the course in the morning and then pull the targets and that should wind up another years Classic. I have a lot of things to do around the farm that I have put off so will be busy. Hope to get a little time in the shop and just relaxing. Hope yall have a great weekend and hope all the Mothers out there have a great Day Sunday. Life is Good.  :)

Great peaceful weekend, not many pictures, worked on a knife in the shop , shot the range and we got it all torn down and back in the target shed, good help and good time with friends. Then Sunday spent a great day with Miss Joanie and the kids and Grand kids. Had a good friend at the Classic[PatB] gift me a really nice handle that was prefect for another big knife so had to do just 1 more. ;) :) :) Thanks Pat.

Got it almost ready to heat treat and temper, just needs the top tip tapered and a piece added to the tang end, handle and guard all fitted and edge tapered and finished. Also Sunday doing some shooting with the grand kids, they are beginning to catch on for sure. This is Bodhi , he is 2 1/2 years old and getting the hang of it. :) :)

Been a busy week around the house, Miss Joanie said it was time to open the pool, ??? I guess with 89/90 degree weather she is right,been opening it myself for almost 40 years but still a job I don't look forward to, it's up and running and looking good so that's out of the way.  :) I am headed to the farm this morning for some shop work, I want to finish my latest knife and finishing tillering a bow, then in the morning I plan on going to Buck hollow for an archery shoot so should be a fun relaxing weekend. Also got the Boy Scouts coming this evening until Sunday morning, always enjoy them, they are a very well mannered group of boys and the leaders keep a good eye on them. Hope yall have a good one also. Life is Good.  ;) :)

Great weekend, beautiful weather and got lots done around the shop and farm. Very peaceful Friday and Saturday, had the Boy Scouts from Friday evening until this morning, they had a great time and didn't bother me a bit, they done their thing and I done mine. ;) Also went to Buck Hollow Saturday morning with several friends, good fun for sure. Here are a few pictures. Friday Got my knife blade ready to mount handle and finish also tips on my latest Osage, the twisted knotty one.  ??? :)
