That grain looks awesome! 
Florida to Kwajalein to Turkey and back in Florida again.  Good to be home but man was that an adventure!

Beautiful bow.  It deserves reposting in a separate thread, "knots in laburnum" is easy to overlook, and this is a bow everyone should see!
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
