Wow! What a great weekend. :) I spent the weekend in Dade City with some really good friends from this site, chipping points, working on bows , lieing, and sipping. ;)

 I had the pleasure again this year to camp under the big Live Oak with Roger (bonepile), his younger brother,I think we might be able to reel him in ::), and Steve Parnel.

 It rained off and on Friday but was a beautifull day Saturday. there were a lot of people and it seemed like since we were having so much fun under the Pop up pavillions Roger and I set up side by side we had quite a few people asking to knap with us.
 We had a very nice guy from Glass Buttes and another nice Gentleman from Alberta spend tthe 3 days with us chipping along with Jim from Land O'Lakes Fl. working on bows on Sunday with Steve and myself.
 Wayne, stickbender was also there Friday when I got there and Ryan Gill had a table set up with his fine, crafted, bows and matched points along with his lovely wife and little one.
Also, Steve and I were tillering his bows till 1 AM Saturday night While Roger provided music and refreshments. ;D

I'll try to load some more pictures in a few minutes. The site is giving me a hard time right now.

Had a good time as usall,could have done without the bleak weather Fri. Ed Mosher showed a few of us the way he and Roy Miller knotch which looks upside down and backwards to me but the end result is good.I ended up with some rock a big piece of buffalo hide and alittle more bow knowedge,not bad at all. Two weeks till Silver River Knapp-inn and I'm ready to go already.
