Just wanted to say this is my favourite ongoing thread on PA, always interested to see what you guys get up to even though we've never met.

... although that cooking section is taking off now...  >:D

Thanks Crogacth,glad you enjoy and maybe we will meet someday. ;) :) Cracker we have really missed you being around and everyone missed and ask about you at the Classic,just wasn't the same without you. Hope things are going good.  :)
FRIDAY and headed to the cabin as soon as I can get away. ;) :)Got the skins on my Osage yesterday,plan on trimming them up today,then a new string and some silencers and it should be ready to shoot some more and finish her up. :) Ant quite decided but this might be a gift  :-\ ;) if it works out as nice as I think it is going to. :) Plan on some cabin cleaning/servicing one of my trailers to get ready for the trip up North and maybe a litte bushhogging,the weather is supposed to be hot and clear but low humidity so should be a nice weekend. Hope yall have a good one. See ya Monday. Life is Good. ;) :) :)

Got my Jon stone point [from Shannon] mounted and shot,shoots great and should do the job this fall.Also got my Osage ready to seal,skins/grip/new string and shot in.Hope he like it. ;) :)
Jon brought a friend with him [Andrew] great guy and built his first bow,not prefect but shot good and is now ready for #2. Here are some pictures of the fun. :) :) Skinning my Osage[black Racer] and Andrew working on his 1st bow. :) :)

Will and Chuck planning some Osage slats for backed bows. :) Doing a patch on a Hickory bow,had luck doing this before[hope it holds] if not it's Brat wood. ;) ;D ;D New grip on my Osage,the wrap was a little small so Will went over it with black leather,I think it looks better and feels better also. :) Trailer is all rewired/ new lights/bearings packed/new 2 inch ball hitch installed/painted and ready for new wheels and tires.  Got to look good going up into Yankee country,sure don't want to look like a bunch of red necks. ;) ;D ;D ;D Hope yall had a good one also. :) Life is Good. ;) :) :)
