Hi Pat,
Just wanted to thank you for putting on such an awesome event. I had no idea that when I showed up that Chef's David and Cora and Bryon would be cooking up a feast for each and every meal...deer burgers to die for, BBq chicken and beans galore and then BBQ pork in David's secret sauce that would make Piggy Park try to make him deals for the recipe, then the homemade sausage (Bryon's I think) the next morning and Patty's coffee to come alive with and then there was Steve's GAR fillets...dudes and dudetes if you missing Patty's Camp-o-rama this year you sure missed THE EVENT of the season...then there was bow making 101 and Eric getting his Black Locust bow done in two days!!!! (and watching his proud daddy Randy watching his son work on the bow was neat too!) And Alan's awesome points he made as he went through about 16 tons of rock and Steve's guitar playing and then there is Bryon...boy he sure can fool ya...he wacks rocks and does awesome points, makes and cooks awesome sausage and then the rascal pretends he can't play a guitar and then next thing you know he is playing like Johnny Cash and singing like him too!!!!!! During a slack in it all the other Steve pulls out his bows and arrows and says "Let's start slinging em!" and we do!! When I first drove up the first thing I did was to jump out of my truck and yell at Pat..."Hey, come here Pat and let me show you my new osage bow I just finished!! I strung her up and asked Pat "what do you think?" and he said..."well"...(I knew I was in trouble already)..."who has been teaching you to follow a ring?" (worse news)..."you just might just want to back this thing backed ASAP before you shoot her again" (!!!!)... So then he shows me the staves he got for me out at the classic...one straight and one so snakey I thought it might rear up and bite me!!! Course...which one do you think I wanted Pat to help me find the ring with??? Ha! Anyway I sure did have a great time...y'all come next year and you might even see dancing girls!!
