Well me and the little guy will be pulling out Friday morning around 5. Can't wait to see all the regulars ( some aren't all that regular )and meet the newbes.
I call a lot of people brother, but only count a few as family.

We'll be arriving around 6PM Friday.  My wife Schuy (Sky) will be with me again this year.  My friend Brian will be following us down.  Brian came to my little gathering, went home and ordered a knapping kit.  I expect he'll be hanging around the knapping pit most of the weekend.   ;)

It will be Monday night for me....man I'm ready! I feel the stress leaving my body as I get closer to Clarksville. I agree with Kerryb...It's all about meeting like spirited people.

Us challenged guys may need a group pic under this imaginary beam that seems to give some all the trouble!

I agree Matt.  I would also like to see a group picture of all the tall guys with goose eggs.

I'm working a half day Monday and then heading down from there.

Packed my cloths and other items tonight.  Tomorrow the camping gear.  Friday morning grab the bows and quivers.  Looks like around 58 hours till the Classic starts for me.   :)

Cool! Thanks Kerry!  I might even get a couple of them boring, perfectly straight and clean ones from you while I'm at it.  For some reason my stash seems to be a little short on those kind.  I packed my stuff in the ken-a-bago Monday morning or at least thought I did >:(  I got all the way to Iowa before i remembered the two walnut staves, my grill and a couple other things that were in the back of my pickup.  I guess that's better than last year when I forgot all my arrows ::).  I'm headed for Henderson TN tomorrow.  Its gonna be real hard to come straight back to ia when I'm gonna be that close.  But the boss is promising that I will be there next week, so its all good!  Josh

Packing and loading everything up today hopefully.  I am going to drive if at all possible tomorrow to around Knoxville area and find a place for the night.  Get up early and come in Friday.  I am so looking forward to this trip.  I can feel my strength going and it might be more of a sit and watch trip for me, but I will be there.  Not a 100 percent, but hey, I have never been 100 percent right?  See all you great people in a couple of days.

Got my lodge, bed and camping items packed.  Just gotta get some clothes together, groceries and throw the bows/arrows and bowmaking tools in which I'll do today.  Then its just waiting for #1 son to get out of school Friday.

She's just shy of eleven foot Pappy.  I got a KW now with no stacks.  My old Pete was 13' 3" so it would of been more of a problem.  I got the map open to Tennessee, Will in the CD player, draw knife in the toolbox, knapping bucket in the closet, Halfeye's good medicine bow( and arrows) in the sleeper and a smile on my face a mile wide! Are we there yet!?!?  Josh
