I didn't cut any last year so I guess I'm making up for it now.  I've been trying to find some nice straight stuff and all I keep finding is crazy grained.  I wish mine would have split as easily as your ash.  Took me about two hours to get one log in half today.  I could have used some DLH power.

She was setting a little low in the back Roy, even with the beefed up suspension.  I only had to drive a hundred yards to unload it.

Today we had our family Easter fun fair at church. Great time. Then we came home and we all cleaned house some. Diego and I finished painting a small mower trailer my brother gave me. Then we went out and tried to locate some turkeys with no luck. Put a gun rack on the 4 wheeler, took some time the see the folks, came home and grilled some burgers and corn on the cob. My brother and his family came in for the rest of the weekend. We had dinner, watched a movie with the family and now it's bed time.

I didn't want a browned barrel and furniture on my fowler so I opted for gray. I used oxpho blue and rubbed it back to gray, came out really attractive. I am going to wait until after turkey season to file off the casting marks on the lock and polish and gray it to match the barrel.

I polished all the lock internals and drilled the touch hole to 5/64", the gun goes off like a percussion gun.

Gotta rush out some bow blanks for this coming weekend at the Stull Preserve.  Had any Wicki big enough to hold a draw knife, peeling bark and sapwood!   ;D :D :laugh:

Nice pic Matt....Somebody with a grey hoodie looks quite a bit taller than he did in August last year!

Spent the day hiking the mountains with Hawk, Marian, Joshia Huston and my wife.  Together we only found three elk sheds, one new one, one last years shed and a spike.  I think Hawk is geathering some horns for the Classic!  Beautiful day and some long hikes!  Joe

Easter Sunday had some family over and my bro-in-law wanted to shoot some clays




He was pretty rusty, and he was borrowing my 870, but we had fun!

Got this hide started early today and it never did get much color. Oh well, wood's cheap! Lovin these spring days!

I like the grey look, mighty sweet.  Ain't a well tuned flintlock a joy to shoot?  Everyone seems to think it's KLATCH..swissssssssssssshhhh..BOOM!  It can be,, but that's no fun!
