Thanks Bob, I do fool with a lot of different things but scrapping on wood is still my first love.  :) seems every piece is different and has it's own issues to figure out, keeps you mind sharp and Lord knows I need that.  ;) :) :)

Great weekend, short for me at the cabin but still a lot of fun. Beau and Christina went Saturday to canoe the red river so we had the grand kids Saturday, I went home early Saturday morning to lend a hand, Miss Joanie can handle them when all the play is in the house but a 2/4/6 year old around the pool is another story, she needed PapPap so I of course went.  ;) :) :) Greg and I have been helping 3 buddies with their first bows.  :) It has taken a while but we finely made it Friday !!!

Got Doug's shooting last, 50@26 as hard as I tried I couldn't get a full draw, he is just way to fast on the trigger, ;) :) :) then I had a peaceful Friday night around the fire. :) Very pleased with how their bows turned out, they were so happy and that made all the time and effort worth it.  :)

Went home Saturday morning to be with the kids, we had a couple adventures in the back area and they helped put out my salt lick, it has been there for years and 1 of their favorite spots to check out when they are there. great fun , but keeping up with them is getting to be quite the challenge. :)

Then some cooling off in the pool, not as beautiful and peaceful as BJ'S beach but we do enjoy it and the kids really do. :) You really got to keep and eye on them though, especially Tanner the youngest, he will jump right in with no fear at all. Hope yall had a good one also. Life is Good. ;)

They can be a handful at that age. Growing up and raising kids around a pool in just about every backyard and water everywhere, that's a good age to start teaching them to swim.

I agree Eddie and we are working on that, Margaret Ann is getting there and Bodhi ant far behind, now Tanner I think will be easy to teach, he already dose pretty good with his arm floaters and has no fear.  ;) :)

That pool looks very inviting Pappy and probably doesn’t have the seaweed and critters living in it our beach does. I’m sure the kids love it.

I’m with Eddie. Teach them to swim. We didn’t have swimming pools around when I was a kid. We had ponds and gravel pits though. We learned really young how to swim or at least float. The big kids taught us. It was kinda a sink or swim lesson, but very effective.

There were literally 50 or more kids there on a hot evening and no adults in sight. The big kids did throw us in, but they also watched out for us

Thanks Brian their always seems to be something going on. Had a good weekend, some bow work in the shop, some brat making and lots of just setting around shooting the bull or I guess you could call it fellowship, it was hot so a good day to stay under the fan although I did make a 4.4 mile pack Friday morning but I did it early, still was hot but bearable.  :) Still had a fire, just something I have to do hot or cold. Some bow work in the shop, Kenny made his first a couple weeks ago and is back for another, I have another one in the works also, my last one didn't make the cut, went powwwww at 24 inches, ??? O well on to another. ;) It's not like it is my first to blow, you just have to move on. :) ;) Sister and Sally just digs a hole and lays in them when it get hot. ;) :) :)
