Since the end of hunting season, I've been osage bow blank mode.  Going to try to have at least a couple dozen.

11-year-old grandgirl has a bow started. Told her long ago that if she gets it completed by Classic time that I'd take her along this year. But she's not worked on it for couple months.

Yesterday I reminded her that it's just 2 months (exaggerated a bit) 'til Classic. Tick ... tock ... tick ... tock.

Today Rylie called, "Papa, may I come over tomorrow to work on my bow?"
Of course, she got an affirmative.
"Oh, Papa, can I also go with ya to your Thursday night weekly bow-building gathering too? I've got alot of catching up to do!"

I guess she REALLY wants to meet ya'll !!    :o
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

And we really want to meet her Knoll, we love our kids and usually have a lot of them, Matt you shouldn't have any trouble moving them that's for sure. I feel really bad that we won't have any Hickory[ I am sure someone will] but just had lots of issues this year and didn't get it done. :-[ I am sure there will be plenty of wood to go around but it is just much easier, especially for beginners to have it in blank form, easier on the folks that help also. I will say I would rather have a plane stave [not laid out]than one that has been roughed out in a manner with no rhyme or reason, them are the tough ones to lay out and get going in the right direction and we always get a few of them. ???

Any chance of you finding a spot for the ol Kenebago Pappy?  I'm hoping to get there no later than thursday morning, but it will depend on the loads of course.  Josh

Did you see the driveway work they've done, Josh? They are expecting the Kenebago!   ;) You have reserved parking.

Make sure you leave some room in that truck to take home some trade goods  ;)   Glad you are making it this year.

Hey guys I really would like to be there but it aint happening this year this new crowd that owns my company is real tight and I have to stay right on top of things. Maybe it'll settle down in a year or two and I can make it back up. I have a trip through there coming up and maybe I can manipulate things so I can drop in or maybe spend a day during classic week.

All is good at the moment. I mean to keep it that way. Hope everyone has a wonderful classic if I can pull enough strings I may get to come visit. Cracker

Ronnie sent you back a reply. Pappy, I'll be there early again this year. Can I request my usual spot? I'll have your cooking gear;-).
