Title: My visit with John Strunk
Post by: Ghost Dog on September 24, 2007, 12:17:13 pm
Not too long ago I had the pleasure of having John and Pat Strunk strop by my house on their way back to Oregon. I have a lot of admiration for John's bows, and I have a lot of his bows too :o ! In the one picture where I am kneeling, I am showing John how I have collected the papers that he sends with each bow. It looks like he is blessing me. Too funny.

It was a very nice visit. I showed them around Santa Cruz and we went out for Chinese food. It is pretty great having one of your heroes drop by!

Here's a pic or two of John in his "shop".  He helped me build a snakey osage bow last spring.  I think the man loves dogs as much as bows, he certainly loved my Maggie!  John is the most patient and talented teacher I have ever met.
